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.

The ties that bind

There’s something uniquely appealing about corseting.  The way it can take a set of piercings to an entirely different level for the person who has the corset done.  Not to mention the fact that it provides an opportunity for some amazing photographs.  We’ve seen all kinds of different corsets, on women, men, couples, and so on, but I can’t for the life of me recall ever seeing one done on a man’s throat before.  Well, that’s exactly what Miss Cale did last month, and now we get to see the end result of her work.

Have any interesting corseting photos?  Submit them to BME, it’s always great to see additions to the corset piercing galleries.

    Well, some corset piercings can be permanent… but not if they’re done with CBRs. So aye, I’d say that’s purely a play piercing.

    Thanks for liking the corset I did! 😀 For the record, he only had it for a couple of days during the event. The only corsets I’ve done are temporary.

    I’ve done one on this gentleman’s throat before. An 8 point at Skindependence last year. You can see it on my IAM page, http://iam.bmezine.com/?cale, along with others if anyone would like to see them. 🙂
