Fetish Style traces the history, forms and tendencies of sub-cultural fashions that are popular in both mainstream and alternative fashion cultures. Presenting the world of subcultural fetish clothing design in all of its richness and beauty, this book explores the idea of fetish as subversive and repressive as reflected in clothing choices in people of all ages and cultures. Linking the fetishistic aspects of contemporary culture with everyday clothing as dictated by fashion and merchandizing, Fetish Style presents a fascinating study of historical as well as 21st century subcultures. Case studies include the Japanese-influenced 'tribes' of the various Lolita formations, the Shotaru (male Lolita), the club scene, the Goths, the hip-hop fashions and other locally-formed fetishized practices. Fetish Style will be key reading for anyone interested in fetish fashion both past and present.

Accessible critique of Western society under capitalism by leading scholar.

"In Goedde's images the very stillness of the air is filled with anticipation, capturing a sliver of a story, perhaps something very private and magical. The viewer wonders what came before that moment and what pleasures lie ahead...but alas is left wondering. These photos linger in one's mind like a fragment from an erotic dream". In her description of his images, fetish diva Midori touches on the very core of his fetish photography: the subtlety with which he portrays beautiful women and the eroticism of the fetish world without ever being too obvious, let alone vulgar, as so many other fetish photographers can be. Nor does he indulge in exaggerated manipulation of the props of models. He quite simply captures the grace of his subject and lets its beauty speak for itself. In the scenes he sets, in his stills and portraits of impeccable style and subtle atmosphere, he never strays from the path dictated by the elegance and beauty of fetish fashion. What is more, in addition to the skilful arrangements and portraits familiar to readers from the first volume, he has also included some witty color snapshots taken during the shootings, whose unpolished aesthetic and directness have a vitality all their own.

Offers readers a "Five Point Fetish Plan" that provides tools for fetish management, including ways to introduce fetishes to a long-term partner. "Fetish and You" will help readers transition from shame and self-loathing to confidence and self-acceptance.

A fascinating survey of the enduring human love affair with the exotic and the strange, and its impact on Western culture Exotic explores our obsession with the lure of distant lands and their promise of the weird and wonderful, the beautiful and grotesque. Through a host of evocative images, this book shows how the absorption of 'the foreign,' through arts, design, architecture, and other cultural elements, has consistently enriched Western society, contributing to it cultural dynamism and artistic energy. Exotic's focus is especially relevant to the modern globalized world in which our engagement with cultures and traditions from around the globe is easier – and potentially more fraught – than ever before.

On the 15th day of Franklin, Year of Descent 1008, in the Kralate of Vizantia Planet Kforri. A young teacher, Marko Prokopiu, is convicted and jailed. His heinous crime: preaching the false and unholy belief that Kforri was originally settled by men arriving from Earth in flying machines - a dangerous heresy against the official doctrine of divine evolution. Goaded into jail-break by his wife's desertion and mightily armed with his father's great ax, Markorushes to avenge his marital honour. With an eminent philosopher, Dr. Halran, inventor of the incredible hot-air balloon, Marko journeys perilously to exotic lands - to decadent Anglonia, hostile Afka, civilised Eropia and, at last, the all-female Isle of Mnaenn. There, by clever ruse and uncommon physical daring, he must recover the Great Fetish and solve the riddle of planet Kforri's ancient history, or meet a fate more complicated than death!
