Publisher's Synopsis
Forty renowned fetish photographers from all corners of the globeincluding such well-known talents as Trevor Watsoninvite us to participate in their intensely personal fetish dreams in this enchanting anthology. Fetishism is often described as the worshipping of objects, but in the sexual sphere it usually refers to sensuous materials such as patent leather, silk, leather, rubber, plastic, or metal as well as objects made of these materials like high-heeled shoes, net stockings, handcuffs, footcuffs, and sometimes collars and leashes. Parts of the body such as hair, tattooed or pierced skin, and even hands and feet can become objects of desire as well, a fact demonstrated by these images of seductive models, from respectable housewives to exalted top models. Sensuous materials turn into actual instruments of bondage, bandaging, body painting, and more as these erotic photographs range from romantic play to hardcore ritual, from timid submission to merciless domination.
