Class description
Join the designer-maker of LAMA leather goods for a full hands-on guide into leather work and the design process of making a fully customised harness to look hot and hug your body in all the right places.
Although harnesses began in the BDSM realm, our contemporary sexual discourse and structure defiance has pushed it into a more mainstream fashion, creating democratisation and inclusivity for others to explore who never had access to it before, and so it has become an aesthetic in itself. They’re not meant to keep you warm or protect your body. Some are designed for bondage, but mostly they are worn to frame and showcase your body, whether over bare skin or over clothing as a shameless and provocative accessory that can add a kinky edge to your look.
In this workshop you’ll be able to choose a top or a bottom piece from our varied examples for inspiration as a base to your design. Afterwards you'll be able to choose a colour & hardware, and from that create and customise to your own liking a dream harness that fits you perfectly, all by yourself!
No previous knowledge required, but! I do recommend that you feel comfortable using a cutter, hammer, press, and other tools. All materials are provided, you just have to come with an idea and your body (based on availability. If you want to add something specific, then you’re welcome to bring that with you).
About the materials: I only work with the highest quality Italian vegetable tanned leather & hardware, which are the most eco-friendly and ethically responsible options in the market.
