Fashion body harness is a hot thing right now and to be honest it has been a topic for discussion ever since its debut. Let's get a little in what it is and what path had it taken on its way to the fashion Olympus. The name "harness" in English is a courtesy of the fetish days this accessory lived through before hitting runaways. The French call it porte-épée which comes from the words carry(porte) and sword(épée). This little French lesson actually gives us more insight on the original background of the body harness. It had the same roots as an iconic jacket of Jimmy Hendrix and combat boots(dear to all the of us rock stars at heart) – it came from the military background. Originally used to hold a weapon these beautiful belts were heavily used in the revolution of sexually oppressed nation in the 70s. This is how harness had gained reputation of a leather kink. Since then a lot of brands contributed to the upbringing of the harness as a fashion statement. For example Fleet Ilya that was featured on many covers and genius Zana Bayne who rocked the fashion world in 2010 causing the extreme popularization of the accessory.
