All was taken away from you: white dresses, wings, even existence.

Breathtaking corset: ~AntisepticFashion

I'm going to be shooting the UrbanPrimitive set based around this corset on Friday with ByteStudio...but it was so pretty I had to give it a test run ;)

I love this picture. The corset reminds me of "urban decay". Looking forward to see the pictures with the set.

I recognised Antiseptic Fashion's corset immediately. I love their designs. You look amazing in it. Like a warrior with that predatory, sexy pose you've got there. It's cool to see you without your glasses. I love the background, too. The whole thing just rocks ma world.

How much was your waist laced up to in this picture? It's so tiny (and hot).

I'm not sure :P I gave ~AntisepticFashion my measurements, and they said "Here! This one will fit you!". So I don't know how small it cinches.

It brings to mind the poem "The Destruction of Sennacherib," by Lord Byron. One of my favorites.

That is a surprising design for a corset. Hope I don't sound like a perv but is the half bikini covering the left part of the corset or added for modesty? Or is it removable? I ask because it doesn't look like it should be part of the piece.

And I look forward to seeing the shoot, it should generate some incredible images ^.^

A beautiful pose. The provocative asymmetry of the outfit is enhanced by the asymmetry of the backdrop.

I very much like the delicate balance of the elements of this image. Very well done!

I have a super-duper-awesome lens :nod: Quality of glass ends up being more important than quality of DSLR camera, so that's probably it.

Technically, I should have been wearing a matching pastie over the bikini breast, but I haven't bought the glue yet :hmm: So indeed, the left part isn't part of the corset.
