About the Book
The Still Anthology, Volume 2 builds on the powerful foundation of the first collection, offering a new series of portraits and deeply personal stories from individuals who chose to go flat after mastectomy. With striking imagery and unflinching honesty, this volume continues to challenge narrow definitions of femininity and beauty—affirming that wholeness is not dependent on reconstruction, but rooted in self-determination and lived experience.
Featuring contributors ages 27 to 61—including thrivers, survivors, and previvors—this anthology explores the layered realities of life after mastectomy: loss and mourning, sexuality and intimacy, parenting, physical strength, self-advocacy, and the ongoing process of reclaiming one’s body.
In addition to these narratives, Volume 2 includes behind-the-scenes moments from the Still photoshoots, reflections on flat advocacy, and personal style insights from those redefining how it feels to move through the world flat.
Together, these stories expand the conversation—making visible the complexity, diversity, and power of lives lived fully and beautifully without breasts.
