Infinity dress
A Personal Note from Robin
When I am taking photographs of a model during a bondage photo session, moving her from one position to another, or "magically removing her dress" becomes quite an issue.
The "Infinity Dress" allows me to
- untie a single strategically placed knot on the dress, and,
- "abracadabra", the dress falls to the floor without any changes to her position or her bondage.
This allows a lot more photos per hour.
If I am working with a Professional Model, I will be paying a significant amount of money for her time. At $300 per hour, that is five dollars per minute, even during wardrobe changes. Add to that the costs of people to help with her hair, makeup, etc. and my own support staff.
Try this. Put a rubber band around your wrists and then time yourself to see how long it takes to remove the dress you are wearing.
Next, imagine the rubber band is replaced by intricate rope bondage, handcuffs or other metal restraints.
Finally. imagine the tasks on a professional bondage photo studio set. You must:
- disconnect the model from the cross, rack, cage or other bondage equipment,
- reposition the model to a more comfortable position,
- find and use your keys to remove the cuffs, or to untie the ropes,
- remove the dress,
- touch up her makeup after being smudged by removing the dress,
- reinstall the fetters or bonds,
- reattach her to the cross, rack, cage or other bondage equipment,
- readjust any props being used: gags, blindfolds, hair ribbons, etc.
- look for your camera,
- reposition yourself to your last "camera point of view" position, and,
- try to remember what you were doing while trying to remain cool and collected.
Another method of accomplishing the "dress removal task" is too tear her designer-created, fetish attire from her body on set. Oh, the enjoyment of creating a bodice ripper photograph! She will scream. Her dress-creator will laugh and scream. Her lawyer will smile with glee.
Another option is to "crawl" the local thrift stores looking for costumes. With a pair of scissors, you sacrifice the $10 dress. If it takes me less than 2 minutes, I save time and money. If either of us get enjoyment from the sacrifice, so much the better. If neither of us enjoy it, one of us should change jobs!
The "Infinity Dress" is still one of my favorite bondage photo session props. It is sleek, pretty, sexy and easy to make. It is street-legal and it can be worn to a party, dinner party or fetish event.
Whew! All of the above choices take a lot of hard work!
- Rhetorical question: Why do I do this to myself?
- Rehtorical answer: I am seventy-five years old and I am still enjoying myself!
