Inspired by 1940s and 1950s burlesque fashion, these designs recreate the look of thigh-high hosiery complete with garter belts, seams, lace tops, and bow accents. The result is a bold body-art statement that blends vintage glamour with tattoo craftsmanship.

Originating from centuries-old cultural practices, tribal designs carry symbolic weight through their patterns and placement. Modern tribal tattoos adapt these traditional motifs into contemporary compositions that honor the style's heritage.

Forearm tattoos benefit from a natural canvas that follows the arm's long shape. Designs can wrap around the arm or sit on the inner or outer surface, giving flexibility in how the tattoo is displayed.
