Love-Heart Choker & Body Chain Set - Vintage Black Leather Collar Harness, Emo Gothic

Two Pieces That Already Match

What you are buying here is less two accessories than the fact that they already coordinate. A choker with a heart charm and a matching body chain, cut from the same black faux leather and finished with the same hardware, built to work together from the throat down to the waist. Assembling the same effect piece by piece almost never lines up, because the blacks differ, the strap widths differ and the metal finishes differ.

The heart charm is the romantic centre of a set that is otherwise entirely gothic, and the tension between those two readings is the style. The faux leather is soft, light and comfortable enough to keep on for hours at a stretch. Both pieces adjust, so they follow the shape of a particular body instead of arriving in fixed sizes. It works in a bedroom, at a club or as part of a costume, which in practice is three uses out of one purchase. The brand is Tosmifairy.

Faux leather and water have nothing to say to each other. Wipe it with a dry cloth, keep it clear of damp and store it flat so the straps never set into a crease and the chain does not knot into itself. Undo the fastenings before it goes away rather than leaving them closed under tension. Adjust it so it rests instead of gripping, with a finger passing under the collar without any effort.
