Fashion and Fetishism : Corsets, Tight-Lacing and Other Forms of Body-Sculpture Paperback / softback
by David Kunzle
Paperback / softback
Description
Fashion and sex have always enjoyed a very close relationship.
This history of corsetry and body sculpture shows how this phenomenon is closely bound up with sexual self-expression.
It shows how the use of the corset rejected the role of the passive, maternal woman; in Victorian times it was seen by many as a scandalous threat to the social order.
