Displaying lingerie models on Fremont Street in Las Vegas requires navigating local ordinances and regulations regarding public decency, street performers, and commercial displays. 

Here's a breakdown of the key considerations:

 

1. Indecent exposure and public decency

  • Nevada Revised Statute § 201.220 prohibits indecent exposure, defined as exposing one's genitalia or anus in public or a private place open to public view.
  • While the Nevada Supreme Court has stated that the law doesn't prohibit exposing breasts or buttocks, police may still make arrests for such acts, according to Shouse Law Group.
  • Public display or exposure of the female breast below a point immediately above the top of the areola or of a person's genitals or pubic area in a lewd and obscene fashion is prohibited in North Las Vegas.
  • Open and gross lewdness, which involves touching the genitals of an unwilling person, carries harsher penalties than indecent exposure. 

 

2. Street performer regulations

  • The

     has regulations for street performers, which may apply to individuals displaying lingerie for tips or donations.
  • Performers must register with the city and FSE, obtain designated performance spots via a lottery system, and adhere to specific time slots and location restrictions.
  • Street performers cannot charge a fee for their performances, including for photos taken with costumed characters; tipping is voluntary. 

 

3. Commercial displays and filming

  • Commercial displays on Fremont Street, including potential lingerie modeling, may require obtaining necessary permits and authorizations.
  • This could involve a film permit application and a certificate of insurance, depending on the nature of the display.
  • Filming on Fremont Street also has specific regulations and requirements. 

 

4. Importance of legal counsel

  • Given the complexities of the laws and regulations, individuals considering displaying lingerie models on Fremont Street should seek legal counsel to ensure compliance and avoid potential penalties.
