I think it's wrong to say that Gemma's nip-slips are disturbing because she has the body of a 12 year old. She has her own body, she isn't 12, and I know women who are ten, or twenty, even, years older than her and still have a flat chest. I know women in their late twenties who still get mistaken for teenagers. Saying that showing a flat chest automatically conjours up images of prepubescents is wrong. It may do for you, but doesn't automatically do so.
I've never seen a distasteful picture of Gemma, even those of her nip-slips, because her nudity, when it happened, seemed quite natural, and not for purely sexual purposes. And I do think that with things like floaty Chloe blouses, it's preferable to have a nip-slip than to tape the clothes and ruin their movement, or to stick something beneath them. They conjour up a time before the sex-saturated now, when you could actually run through fields with no bra, and no shoes, and your top half falling off, and just feel free and beautiful

.
I did, however, think that Tom Ford YSL runway show where all the nipples were painted purple was distasteful. Just because that was so obviously 'sex sells'. But the last thing that show was trying to be was tasteful, so I think it served the greater purpose of showing the clothes the way the designer wanted them to be seen.
As to models -I think it's part of the job to be comfortable with your body. If you can't be as successful without 'doing nudity', that's fair enough, because you're not offering what other models are prepared to.
Oh, and Gisele 'not doing transparent' clothes is b*llocks!
