Zentai in Art and Fashion. Trude Tortora and Jeff orGina

Not only these 14 photos are good candidates for museums, art galleries, home or offices but also the designs are more wearable than pure zentai. The accessories extend the limits of a zentai suit. It’s not just a garment for the sake of this kind of garment but a part of a complete costume (something what Billy‘s doing for years 😉

MadJack’s selfbondage tale: “Side-affects”

Even if you’re brave enough to perform self-bondage sessions or happy enough to have a bondage partner who’s got the same fetishes as you have, there’s still some space for dreams and imagination.

Unlike his usual very daring selfbondage adventures (see here), MadJack posted his first selfbondage “story” called Side-affects

Read it, let us know what you think and share your own bondage and fetish dreams!

Catsuits with and without feet or a Beauty in the trees

Yes, I like usual catsuits. The ones without feet. They look like a sport attire, and beg for sport shoes. See, for example: Lycra catsuit or another fetish from Adidas. Part I and Part II.

But add the feet, and the image changes dramatically. The difference is easily bigger than between leggings and tights.

See 10 beautiful photos by fantastic FruitMix below (she did not say where they’ve got the suit).
Model: Rufina

Shiny pantyhose and beach fashion. Part II

See Part I

Now you guys are talking! I was never fond of bikini swimsuits but the combination with this almost invisible glass-like shiny addition… I always loved this kind of pantyhose (anybody knows a model, BTW?).

Please, bring this fashion to the beach! Just imagine, all girls and boys in glittering under the Sun wet and dry pantyhose!

Another question, does anybody have any more photos from this event? According to the ad on the back wall, this fashion show took place in Austria.

Anyway, I would wear a one-piece swimsuit instead of bikini. With or without pantyhose.

Paraphilias, sexual fetishes, normality, deviations and men vs women

Have you ever asked yourself (or someone else? wow… ) questions like:

  • I love wearing pantyhose? Am I normal?
  • Women (men?) in swimsuits, shiny stockings and high heels drive me crazy? Is it curable?
  • Has anybody tried to give up his/her latex addiction? I can’t live with it anymore.

Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?

OK, as always, let’s go step by step. We will not focus on “why”, but rather on “what” and “how”.

Maryna Linchuk in shiny blue pantyhose(?)

In Russian Vogue (June 2008) Maryna Linchuk (Марина Линчук) appeared in beautiful blue almost latex like shiny pantyhose but with no information about the model/brand. There is another photo where she’s wearing a blue Bal Togs lycra/nylon catsuit (custom made).

I wonder if “the pantyhose” are actually “the catsuit”. The colour and shine are a bit different (colour balance?) and I would expect more wrinkles on tights when legs are bent (Photoshop?).

Gothic festival “Summer Darkness 2009 ” in Utrecht – Part III. Fashion show. “Attitude Holland”

See Part I and Part II.

Publishing the third part before I forget about it for two more years 😉

These 22 photos are from the Gothic/fetish/lolita fashion show by Attitude-Holland. What I specifically like is the wetlook lycra. It also reminds me the “other” matte side of latex sheeting. This is the material I would like to have leotards, swimsuits and zentai suits made from!

Anybody can win a place in the fashion show in the following categories: fetish, gothic, lolita, burlesque/pin-up, emo or whatever the organizer/manufacturer invents. All models are from “the real public”. You can check on the website who won this year.

Gothic festival “Summer Darkness 2009” in Utrecht – Part II

See Part I

Two moments.

First. It took me two years to return to this event and finally sort and process the photos I made there. (There will be one more part). And today (what a coincidence!) I’ve been to the Summer Darkness festival again.

Second. It too me five years to figure out why my vivid photos look so flat and lifeless on the website. And the reason is … oh…. this is soooo embarrassing… wrong colour space!

Now I have to either reprocess all the published photos again, or leave them as they are. I will probably redo only the posts I was going to rewrite/reformat anyway. In this set there are pictures in both sRGB and AdobeRGB spaces.

Black and white sensual stories. Andy Julia photography

Why can’t I just repost a photo or a drawing I stumbled upon on tumblr, facebook, *chan or various forums and shut up? Why am I so curious that I begin to search the source, who the author is, what else he/she does? Why do I spent my time and energy to compose these messages which nobody reads, cares of or gives me money for? Yeah, demotivated again…

OK, some useless details you do not want to know anyway. The author is Andy Julia, a freelance photographer from Paris. Books, exhibitions, on-line and off-line galleries… All that stuff you can find on his website Andy Julia Photography, isn’t it what it was created for?

And the reason why I bothered with typing is that these photos “work“. I would like to be in these clothes, these situations, “to touch and feel”. These moody photos tell stories and … motivate my imagination…
