Shiny.

Metal corsets. The wire ones do not move me. The full-coverage one with the hinged back, on the other hand, is beautiful.

Also, face corsets. Had not previously ever considered the possibility of face reshaping in this fashion. Am thinking of Lieber's short story in a world where the taboo body zone had shifted to the face, and where everyone wore masks (for the same value of "everyone" that you'd expect to wear pants or a skirt or whatever today). And am wondering how strange and wonderful the shapes of heads could get in this way.

Tangenting along, Cheryl Mandus does lovely masks...

...I am falling so hard for masquerades right now.
