Glamour bondage by Uncle M

The chair tie tends to be very versatile in manipulating different looks, as you could change the atmosphere of the photograph by dressing the model slightly differently and paying attention to the chair that is used in the shoot.  It also challenges the model in that she must become creative in her struggling as she does not have as much mobility when tied up in a chair tie as she would in a hog tie, as most of her body is tied onto a fairly hard and rigid object in a chair tie, whereas in a hog tie, she is merely tied up and then placed onto a hard surface. 

Depending on the vision of the artist, the chair tie can start off from either the tying of a harness, or from the tying of the feet and then upwards.  If the harness is being tied, the rope is first wrapped snugly and neatly around the top of the rib area a couple of times, then extended to over the bust, wrapping again at the top of the chest area snugly and tidily, ending on the back of the model.  The rope is then tucked under and pulled through itself under the middle of the under bust loops, and then around the shoulders and the nape of the neck, and finally knotted on the model’s back, well away from the reach of the model.  The model is then seated in a chair, preferably one with a high enough back because as the ropes go around her, they will pull her slightly downward, and more back support means the tie will be more comfortable for a longer length of time.  Her hands are brought to the back of the chair, and crossed at the wrists to form a loose x-shape.  A shorter piece of rope is used to tie the hands together, wrapping first in neat and tight loops around the wrist, and then around itself in between the two wrists.  The rope is then carefully knotted away from the model’s reach so that she cannot pick at them to try to escape.  Then the model’s two elbows are tied together as close together as possible with a longer piece of rope by cinching the rope around each elbow individually and then securing the tightness around the elbows by wrapping the rope around the loops connecting the two elbows and forming somewhat of a swirling hangman’s noose pattern.  Of course, the look here actually depends on how flexible a model’s shoulders are as you don’t want to make a model dislocate her shoulders in order to achieve the look where the elbows are touching.   

By this time, the model is snugly tied enough that she cannot escape unless she manages the rather difficult feat of getting up from the chair without tipping it and trying to shift the ropes around her elbows over the back of the chair.   But are we done yet?  Of course not.  Uncle M never wants to leave any chances of a model escaping.  It’s much more fun when she’s helpless and has no method of escape.  After all, we are photographing and filming bondage art, not escape art.  To be continued…
