Shibari Academy

We're entering the realm of where Shibari meets fashion. This Loop-Chain Dress is a beautiful example of how a full-body, non-restraining tie can serve as a creative accessory suitable for public wear. The way the ropes accentuate the body's natural curves makes this harness a sensual and elegant garment that is sure to turn eyes on the street. 

Typically, we focus on Shibari as a private journey of self-exploration and deepening relationships. Yet, here's an opportunity to take Shibari into a more public domain, turning ropes into fashion statements. It's a different form of self-expression and a fun way to play with rope techniques.

The Loop-Chain Dress uses the traditional chain-stitch technique, a straightforward yet effective method. This technique is all about creating interlocking loops in a series, starting with one loop and pulling the rope through to form the next, continuing this pattern. Simplicity often leads to beauty in Shibari, and this dress is proof of that.

I encourage you to experiment with the chain-stitch technique in new ways. Have you thought about using it to make trousers, or other garments? Maybe you could try out the chain-stitch technique on your arms...Shibari is not just about knots and ties; it's about creativity and exploration. This is your chance to blend the ancient art of Shibari with contemporary fashion and see where your imagination takes you.

Have fun tying!
