Sofasosexy: Turning A Cheap Sofa Into An Object Of Desire

Rating:
Summary: truly sexy
Review: A sexy book filled with pictures of natural beauty and honesty. There is no book out there that celebrates the woman with such honesty and geniality. The girls are beautiful and natural, not to mention happy with themselves. Plus, wonderful zealous use of the ringflash :)

Summary: truly sexy
Review: It's a little collection of flash-on-camera closeups. Some of them have that accidental-snapshot charm. The cover photo is by far the most engaging. Perhaps the pictures could be cut out of the book and assembled into a Hockney-esque collage of a famous model. Not much money, not very well spent, in sum.

Summary: not sleek but genuine lovable sexy
Review: The models are not sleek fashion models on a modern couch. They are not sexy in the way a sports car is considered but more like the comfortable, worn, brown vinyl sofa that pops up throughout the book.
The predominant feel is of skin and the beautiful hairs and colors that are noticed when in a sensual, engaged state. The photos may move anywhere on the body but never feel like the bare naked exposure of pornography. I found this book refreshing. Artful but not in the tired, traditional "ART" black and white erotic photography way.
The best sexy images I've seen in a while. The only criticism is that, for an unusual book, the models were of the body type and age of most models in fashion magazines. The women are no doubt beautiful but the same beauty could be found in models of other ages and shapes - maybe in a sequel to Sofasexy.

Summary: No style. No message. Not sexy.
Review: The reviewer who said this is a collection of puzzle pieces, or Polaroids, was half right. Not many (if any) of these photos would be considered stylish, quality, or sexy if done by anyone. Cramped into this format, poorly cropped, you spend more time looking at the fold between pages and wondering what the photo might have been. Coming from Rankin, given the price, it looks like he was late on a rent payment and threw this together quickly over a weekend. The models are unattractive, to the extent you can make them out, and the photographs present them in an even-more-unflattering light. The shots of the empty sofa actually had more going for them than the shots of the models.
