'Fashion & Fantasies' has a high quality box cover, but the synopsis of an "inside look" into how a photo shoot comes together had me hoping I wasn't about to watch a photographer shoot an actual pictorial. This video is legit scenes thankfully. Nikie St. Gilles (PotY 1999), Alexus Winston (Nov 1997) and Aimee Sweet (Aug 1998) are the featured Pets. More importantly the visuals are pretty good.
Standard intro (1.5 mins) and then "Three on a Couch" with Alexus in a red dress, Nikie in a black and Aimee in blue. It's your three-way girl/girl where they all get moments to shine. Aimee has her tight looking kitty spread wide early on. Spends time with her legs up in the air on display. Lots of kissing, boobs being sucked on, some oral where tongues make contact. A very nice shot of them with their behinds popping out towards the camera including a close-up ends things wonderfully (12.5 mins).
"Princess of Darkness" is Julia Garvey done up very devilish as she gets naked, pours hot candle wax over her breasts & body. Uses small candles to light up and highlight parts of her body particularly her pierced kitty (3.5 mins). "Every Man's Dream" is Samantha Stewart wearing a full bodysuit with stylish holes in it and her boobs visible. The camera is too far away initially when she's being naughty pulling her thong panties between her kitty, but then it gets closer where she spreads multiple times. Her butt then gets a lot of attention as she's on all fours. I've always liked Sam (blonde here) and this is a solid (6 mins). "Freeze Frame" is Nikie in 'n out of a dress and the lady knows how to pose with a quick spread from behind (5.5 mins).
"Live" is a stylish scene with Alexus on a staircase but bad lighting doesn't always allow us to see all of her (4 mins). "Far East" is Aimee's themed solo where the clothing barely cover her body which is really apparent when she bends over (4 mins). "Cool Satin & Hot Wax" has Nikie getting sexy on a bed hitting a lot of angles which is great but then once again candle wax comes into play. It's not my favorite concept. She gets a bit messy especially with a dark candle (9 mins). "Workin' It" has the three ladies all oiled up and in matching one piece thong bikinis. Going for a construction themed vibe, they're standing on a catwalk. Unfortunately it never realizes its full potential. Oiled up is a sexy look - a staple of nude modeling - but you don't get many good shots (5.5 mins). They include some "Outtakes" at the end (30 secs) and the credits fill half the screen leaving the other half for more BTS footage (2 mins).
I might be suffering from softcore burnout or I've sat thru too many subpar titles lately as I went into 'Fashion & Fantasies' expecting a poor concept, but overall this is solid Penthouse. Especially if you're a big fan of either Nikie, Aimee or Alexus. You get a few interviews with them & some insight into how photographer Earl Miller does his work between segments plus the explicit shots fans will love.
