'Satin & Lace' is directed by Andrew Blake (back when he still used his real name Paul Nevitt). He cut his teeth first working for Playboy then Penthouse. At best he'd make ladies look elegant with stylish backdrops and flamboyant clothes. At worst (when not held in check or without a good editor) he'd deliver artsy scenes where female nudity would take a backseat. This is one of those times.
Standard montage intro plays up the feminine charms in slow & steady fashion with a brief female voiceover (2 mins). "The Huntress Diana, Ancient Greece" has the late future PotY winner, T&A babe Julie Strain and Pet Janine Lindemulder posed as Greek goddesses / warriors in the desert complete with fake stone pillars. Both look slamming hot, but it's way too short to get excited about (1.5 mins). "Morocco, 1925" finds three ladies in another vintage setup with the problem being 99% is shown in sepia tone and it moves too slowly (3 mins).
"Blondes in Black" is an improvement with Janine up first posing in black lingerie. Consider this an A+ with how she looks, some spicy closeups if not for bouncing between color and B&W. A second blonde gets thrown into the mix solo in lingerie too before both together and no more B&W rears it's ugly head (3.5 mins). "The Elevator" has two ladies (one Strain) in a glass see thru elevator who quickly get down to touching, lite girl/girl. Not much to dislike, but Julie has a much smaller level of focus (6 mins). "The Erotic Spirit" is lite story as a pretty Asian (Caroylyn Liu) looks around a home for sale and encounters a ghost (Pet Jisel aka Brandy Ledford). Good news is some likable shots of both solo or together. The bad? Setup takes way too much time (5.5 mins).
"Pop Art, 1969" is three ladies posing on a set with lite bondage themes via their costumes. A good shot or two, but over quick and more about style than nudity (2 mins). "The African Massai Queen" sees Janine in the wilderness as a photographer getting shots of a tribal lady which turns into a lite girl/girl near the end with touching and body paints (3.5 mins). "The Underground "Art" Film, 1966" is way too long of a title but keeping with it's theme bounces back and forth between full framed shots of the lady and those like you're watching film being processed. A second girl gets added at the very end and then it's over. Few good shots of the first lady are lost within a sea of trying too hard (2.5 mins).
"Medieval Chasity" doesn't waste time showing Julie Strain off with only a helmet on, but shots of her muff, boobs come quick and then it's over (1 min). "Blondes in White" is like the scene from earlier except the two blondes in lingerie are together right from the start and never get fully naked. Shots of their muff is all that's here (2 mins). "The Boudoir, France, 18th Century" is more vintage cosplay with two ladies but little nudity (1.5 mins).
"Valentine's Day, Hollywood, 1936" is yet another elaborate title & lite story. A lady (Pet Monique Gabrielle) & man dressed the vintage part has her get topless, felt up, shows off solo in a chair for his pleasure. A case in style over substance (3.5 mins). "Japan, 17th Century" has two Asian ladies done up as geishas in full blown white facial makeup. A nice shot or two, but you get the idea (1.5 mins). "The Viennese Artist, 1907" sees two ladies pose nude for a sketch. Luckily they don't stay still and end up touching & feeling each other. Some changes in clothes and good shots in the mix, but perhaps not as many as you'd like. Though two juicy spreads do come during it (4 mins). "Erotic Glamour: Carolyn" sees the Asian beauty from earlier return to pose in lingerie laying on a couch, on the floor or up against a wall. Perhaps the most back to back nudity of the whole video so far (1.5 mins).
"The Movie Set, Rome, 1960" has costumes you expect as ladies get felt up, but little nudity once again (2 mins). "The Future?" is Julie Strain with muscular men on leashes, but very little nudity (1 min). "Blondes in Color" returns to them a third time and at least does the decent thing of showing them off topless immediately on a bed. "Color" seems to refer to their panties color which change once or twice, but never come off (1 min). "Lubricated Ladies" is the end which takes on attitude for style as Pets mount, dismount motorbikes as the sights go from color to B&W and the odd shot of kitty, boobs. Another spread here to mention, but otherwise a letdown (2.5 mins).
'Satin & Lace' isn't without decent moments, but there isn't enough of them. The fluff Blake was prone to deliver goes into overdrive. Style, atmosphere more important than nudity in a bunch of short segments. This works in piecemeal fashion, but as a whole it's weak stuff.
