 WARNING: If you are offended by the naked human body, uncomfortable with your sexuality, or suffer from chronic uptightness or stick-up-your ass disease, you may not want to read this article! INVITATION: If you want to meet an artist and entreprenuer who is making a living as a model, artist, and business woman - and you enjoy looking at naked women - then you have got to meet Fedora! Come on, don't be scared! Come get some 'boobie-pie'! IREP MAG: Lady Fedora! Thank you for spending a little time with us today! Are you ready for the holidays?
Lady Fedora: All of them? Nah. I skipped on the menorah Lady Fedora: but I plan to eat a lot of food tomorrow.
IREP MAG: I've already started!
IREP MAG: As you prepare for 2008 - tell us what your fans can expect from Fedora's Box in 2008!
Lady Fedora: Quite a lot of boobie pie. I will finish integrating version 2.0. I plan to launch a video section with videos of me all alone in other peoples' houses as well as videos with me and my models made with some amazing local filmmakers. There is also a literature section in the works with all kinds of writing and writers. Today, I am building a new guest gallery and planning a hot group photo shoot in the mountains. I can't wait. This website is so much fun!
IREP MAG: I can tell you really enjoy what you do! The site is FANTASTIC! How did you get started in nude modeling and art?
Lady Fedora: I have always been into making art, but I never really pursued it as an occupation until 2 years ago. I studied business in college, so when I started getting into the altporn scene, as a viewer, I saw a lot of creative things I could do in the vein of erotica that would a refreshing change for a lot of people.
Lady Fedora: Then, I found www.brokendollz.com and met some of the models. They were just such awesome women that I just had to start photographing them.
IREP MAG: So you started as a fan and a photographer?
Lady Fedora: Yes. I have been photographing landscapes, waterscapes and animals since I was little. But, I met so many models that I wanted to try my hand at photographing pretty ladies...naked.
Lady Fedora: SO far so good.
IREP MAG: So far.....Very Good!
Lady Fedora: Yeah, I am so stoked about all the positive feedback I receive. www.FedorasBox.com has afforded me the opportunity to work with some amazing photographers. They teach me stuff.
IREP MAG: About photography? Or more?
Lady Fedora: We talk about photography, models, philosophies about erotica, societies views on erotica, what we wish we could change about those views, liberation, comedy, music, and other people's art.
Lady Fedora: Best of all, they teach me about men. I love men!
Lady Fedora: I love learning about their views on porn, sex, erotica and art. All the ladies on my site teach me about women's views.
IREP MAG: Have you learned some intriguing things about men's views on porn, sex and art?
Lady Fedora: Yes.
IREP MAG: Like what?
Lady Fedora: That is a loaded question. I don't want to make any generalizations about men as a gender.
IREP MAG: I can understand that
Lady Fedora: We are all human and different. We have all been "imprinted" about sex in so many different ways. That is why I focus on so many aspects of sexuality.
Lady Fedora: I don't think people want to be lumped into categories like "foot fetish" and "butt fetish". I like a whole woman naked...personally.
IREP MAG: I like the term "imprinted"- do you think that people are taught or programmed about sex and sexuality?
Lady Fedora: Ever read Robert Anton Wilson?
IREP MAG: I haven't - tell us about him.
Lady Fedora: He writes a few great books on the subject, called Prometheus Rising and Ishtar Rising. He will blow your mind.
IREP MAG: I'll have to check him out. How has his writing affected you?
Lady Fedora: He talks about how people are a series of imprints. How money is just bio-survival tickets. His discussions about the human breasts being butts on the chest for sexual pleasure make me ponder my anatomy. I guess flat, limp boobies are more functional for babies, but big round breasts are just hot.
Lady Fedora: His writing has changed the way I view society. Here and there, Robert Anton Wilson has infiltrated my brain waves. Mwahh ahh ahh!!
IREP MAG: You impressed me with your entrepreneurial spirit! You seem very focused on expressing yourself creatively through your ventures. Tell us about your T-shirt business!
Lady Fedora: Cover My Nipples Inc. started in October of 2005. I bought a silk-screening kit for my man mate, and we went to town. A college professor asked us to make some shirts for his classes, offered us some good money for it...and we got other bulk orders from there. We made a dark room in the basement and bought a machine. It is so much fun. I make all the merchandise for my website now. I got tired of people asking us to spend 3 hours designing, just so they could tell me they wanted to order one shirt. Not worth it. So, I started a cafepress store (www.cafepress.com/fedoraland), put my offensive designs up, and people buy the shit out of those shirts. It makes me happy.
Lady Fedora: I still take bulk orders, though.
Lady Fedora: We are on www.myspace.com/covermynipples, too.
IREP MAG: Any funny or crazy t-shirt stories that you want to share?
Lady Fedora: It can best be shown with a picture...let me dig it up....
IREP MAG: I think my favorite shirt is "The Only Bush I Like is My Own!" That - and the "Naked" shirts and tees!
Lady Fedora: Well thank you. Lady Fedora: So, last year, a local photographer bought an "I heart My CUNTRY" shirt for his wife and sent this greeting card to me
Lady Fedora: Except, his hairy chest is popping out over my shirt
IREP MAG: You also have a photography business. Excuse me - an ARTography business
Lady Fedora: Yes. People give me money to take photos. I freelance for OB A&I, I take images of lots of pretty ladies and gents for portfolio development, and I shoot stock, too.
Lady Fedora: The dollars just ensure I can eat while I work. I refuse to do anything short of make love to a camera for a living.
IREP MAG: I'm impressed by your determination! It's rare to find people so focused to 'live' their art.
Lady Fedora: I moved out of the house at 15. By the time I was 20, I was done working for other people and spending 40hours a week doing something I did not love. It was soul-sucking.
IREP MAG: You moved out of the house when you were 15?
Lady Fedora: Yep, right after my birthday. I told my mom, "See ya" and my dad said that he thought I had wanted to get out since I was in the womb. I'm just one of those "free-spirits" I guess.
IREP MAG: If you don't mind me asking - what was the "last straw" that made you go out into the world on your own at such an early age?
Lady Fedora: Spring break that year. My mom had not bought any groceries in a while. I was home from school and ate crackers all week. It was balls and I decided I could do better for myself on my own.
Lady Fedora: So I moved to California and got a job as a nanny
IREP MAG: What was Mom's issue? No groceries? Where are you from originally?
Lady Fedora: I was born on a pig farm in Kansas. My mom was really poor. We were living in Idaho at the time and we didn't have a garden that year. It sounds dramatic, but I really think my mom's head was in the clouds at that point in my life.
IREP MAG: Wow!
Lady Fedora: Right! Life is amazing like that.
IREP MAG: So what was being a nanny in Cali like?
Lady Fedora: Being a nanny was cool. I could have my friends over to my place and set my own bedtime. I could have boys over. I could drink beer and pay bills. I had to have my mom notarize a document saying that my boss could sign documents at high school for me, since I didn't have parents around to do so. That part was weird.
IREP MAG: How old were you when you started getting tattoos?
Lady Fedora: 18. Well, I got some home tattoos at 13, but they didn't stick, thank god! - or whoever you thank for shit like that
IREP MAG: What was your first permanent tattoo-and why did you pick it?
Lady Fedora: It is the one on my top right shoulder. It is Pisces over Aquarius. I am a Pisces and at the time I was reading a book about astrological doppelgangers. After much research I came to the conclusion that Aquarius was my shadow sign - my yang.
Lady Fedora: A girlfriend bought that tattoo for me as a birthday present - I think she was stoked I was finally legal. Har har!!
IREP MAG: How many tattoos do you have now?
Lady Fedora: 9, I think. Yeah, 9 - I had to count.
IREP MAG: And if our readers want to count them, exactly how many can they see when they subscribe to www.Fedorasbox.com?
Lady Fedora: All of them. I get real naked!
IREP MAG: REAL Naked??
Lady Fedora: Don't make me put my booty hole in yer face! Lady Fedora: OK, so, the secret's out; I'm a perv!
IREP MAG: And you seem very comfortable with your 'perviness'!
Lady Fedora: I seem to get away with it. I can ask a model to get naked in my creepy basement, and she does! I can fondle my friends, and they welcome it!
IREP MAG: Sounds like the perfect job!!
Lady Fedora: I don't fondle my models...unless they ask me to - which some of them do.
IREP MAG: MmmmHmmm
Lady Fedora: In which case, we break out some cameras.
IREP MAG: Who was the first model that posed naked for you? What was it like?
Lady Fedora: Model or a friend at a party that turned naked? Do you mean professionally?
IREP MAG: Hey - tell us about both!
IREP MAG: So whose sexier - women or men?
Lady Fedora: I cannot answer that. Lady Fedora: But, I prefer to take pictures of women naked. I love portraits of men - they have whiskers and shit!
IREP MAG: What's the sexiest thing about men to you?
Lady Fedora: I like their legs. Lady Fedora: and chest Lady Fedora: and back Lady Fedora: and...Brains Lady Fedora: brains are good.
IREP MAG: What about women?
Lady Fedora: Women are so dynamic. They are constantly dumbfounding me. In a way, I feel like a 16year old boy in that respect. Lady Fedora: Haha! That sounded wrong.
IREP MAG: Hey - it is what it is! But Fedora's Box isn't just about showing women naked - you have a mission and a method behind your madness. Tell us about it.
Lady Fedora: I want to make a new class of erotica that is real, honest, sexy, dynamic, and exploratory. I want women to come out of their shells and demand respect of their sexualities...as well as share a piece of them. And, I want men to fucking drool in awe - because this shit is fucking awesome!!!
Lady Fedora: I don't mean to sound all soap boxy, but I am so into this project.
IREP MAG: I can tell! IREP MAG: Before I let you go - what else do you want to let our readers know about you, your work, and your vision?
Lady Fedora: I want them to know that they should check it out. www.myspace.com/fistmybox www.fedorasbox.com
Lady Fedora: Merry Fistmas to all!! Come to my site and get yoself some boobie pie!!
