I don’t know if its really comfortable to be restricting in one of these latex contraptions, but visually it looks great. And if I remember well, I think I saw some editorials in the past mixing latex/S&M props with some high fashion outfits…
HighGlossDolls presents a selection of their Fashion shoot for the Faulein Ehrhardt label – Shot by the designer herself Katja Ehrhardt – Take this as inspiration and think props, props !!

Colombian photographer Basilio Silva has some great photographs in his portfolio. Currently based in Buenos Aires, he started as a documentary photographer and finally arrived in the fashion world, working for several local fashion publications. Silva has an interesting ’sexy raw’ style that could be described as a mix of Jurgen Teller and Terry Richardson blended together… Keep a close eye on him…
German Photographer Uwe Ommer has been around for more than two decade, during the 80’s he shot some prestigious campaigns which included Ungaro, Saks Fifth Avenue and Charles Jourdan. He also shot the Pirelli Calendar (1984) and few editorials for Vogue UK, Lui Magazine and Hustler. Always shooting in a kinky way, his two latest project are ‘Do it Yourself’ where beautiful half-naked young models take self-portraits (buy his Taschen book) or his ‘Obamania’ Series – Be sure to check his site for more info & pictures : www.uweommer.eu
Artist Justine Lai cheekily explores humanizing and demythologizing the Presidents of the United States and subverting notions of authority by painting herself in intimate sexual encounters with the Presidents in chronological order. These artworks in her Join or Die series could be viewed as controversial but she approaches the spectacle of sex and politics with a certain playfulness.
French photographer Jeanloup Sieff was born in Paris to Polish parents, Sieff’s interest in photography began at the age of fourteen when he received a Photax plastic camera for his birthday. Well-known for his love of the frivolous and superficial, Jeanloup Sieff’s legacy places him in the top rank of fashion and art photographers. A veteran of Harpers Bazaar, Vogue and an associate of the famous Magnum Agency, Sieff took up his camera to capture ‘the pleasure of those maddening lights’; whether the chic limelight of Hollywood, the harsh glare of Death Valley skies or the fashion shoot flash, his images are studies in the art of glamor.
Sieff’’s take on shapes and textures, especially with a wide angle, is unique particularly in the fashion world where it is incredibly difficult to shoot like this and get away with it. Such a legend this guy is. His online portfolio is interesting because you need to refresh each section to being able to see more pictures. www.jeanloupsieff.com
An editorial named after a classic Velvet Underground album absolutely deserves mention. Especially in these times of ripped denim, leather aplenty, sheer sexy fabric, messy hair, smokey eyes, chains, and studs. Sex, drugs, and rock & roll makes its return in this shoot for SOMA Magazine by Kobal. See full spread on PaperMode.
I have always LOVED the Sisley ad campaigns, often controversial and quite Sexy! They seem to have taken it down a notch for their FW 09/10 but still really sexy, photographed by Marcus Ohlssonand featuring the beautiful Masha Novoselova and male model Jakob Wiechmann. They are now also launching their Sisley Underwear, see their super sexy campaign here (model? photographer?).
I like the NSFW concept by Vice magazine: Copy Sluts – Vice, the king of sexy/kinky/trashy, perverted photography always comes up with some interesting concepts! I enjoyed this one thoroughly… Check out their full gallery with plenty more photocopies. (PS: sorry if this offending you, dont scroll down further, if so.)
We heartily approve the choice of Dutch model Laura Stonefor Eres Lingerie Fall/Winter 09-10 ad campaign !
