A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Holly’s Microdermal Corset

My friend Steve Truitt in Albuquerque wrote me with this photo of an eight-piece microdermal corset he did on a client. The oldest one is about eight months old and the newest about half that, and they’re all doing quite well (although it seems that there was a bottom pair that got removed; I’m assuming due to pants interaction). She’s worn the slave ring ends for over a month now, and as a dancer, occasionally laces them up for work — I wonder if she gets more or less tips those nights?

    The two lower pieces were removed due to irritation from the stage actually. 😉

    I’m getting this done soon.
    I’ve had a corset done before and it’s just healing.
    I’ve planned the microdermals for a few weeks but I need to know where to get the rings for them.
    Anyone know?
    Thanks.
