A LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

The Intimacy of Nudity

I experience nudity as intimacy. It’s intimacy with self. It’s intimacy with others. It’s intimacy with your surroundings. It’s intimacy with the earth. And I want to be intimate with you.

I founded Corset to create a safe space for ordinary people to explore the many joys, obstacles, and conundrums of sexuality. We’re not Playboy or an academic journal. We’re here to embrace you, reaffirm your curiosities, and amplify your inner voice. Corset exists to generate conversations often left unspoken.

Within the first pages of this magazine, I’ve greeted you unabashedly in the nude. And I will share more of my body and spirit in Saddi Khali’s photographic essay, “The Nectar of Nudity.” I chose to collaborate with Khali on the inaugural issue of Corset for several reasons:

1. We share similar views on nudity as an invitation for vulnerability and as a foundation for self-love.

 2. We believe nudity is about more than just sex: it’s sensual and personal. It should feel familiar, shameless, and comfortable.

3. I saw Khali’s work, read his mission, and fell in love. He represents artistry with passion and purpose. He makes photography therapeutic. His vision is healing.

In “Pieces of Peace,” you’ll get to know the man behind the camera, his self-transformative journey, and why he enjoys shooting clients without the things that define pop culture beauty.

But Khali isn’t the only photographer that “gets” the power of natural magnificence. South Korean-born photographer Yunice Kang captures her subjects’ personal identities through nudity, while dreaming of ways to connect artists and inspire more collaboration. Both understand the power of art having principle and thus, nudity reaching beyond physical pleasure.

In this issue, daring women have written stories of body hatred, including battles with eating disorders and wrist cutting. Others have shared their secrets to empowerment from motherhood and to finding peace with their bodies while living abroad. Some of these women are professional writers. Some are just ordinary and wanted to gift you their stories. But all of these inaugural contributors want you to know that you’re not alone in your body hang-ups, health struggles, and ever-evolving journeys to self-love.

This issue is raw. It’s candid. It’s tear-jerking. It’s joy-inspiring. It’s luscious. It’s nudity as empowerment. It’s a reflection of the real you.

Come to our pages authentically. Enjoy this space of intimacy. And if you desire, greet us in the nude too.

Welcome to Corset.

Yours in empowerment,

Arielle Loren
