Stella van Gent. Semi-transparent SimonO metallic latex lingerie

stella-36 van Gent  in semi-transparent latex lingerie and high-heelsStella van Gent from Redoptics is wearing SimonO lingerie made out of custom made semi-transparent cosmetic latex with metallic effect.

Note how latex lingerie and latex clothing in general have evolved from “standard” sex-shop-next-door-look inner-tube-like dusty rubber to chic, expensive and publicly wearable pret-a-porte latex collections. I don’t mean exclusive unique state-of-the-art latex clothes made for special events, like this one, for example.

Fashion, Bondage and Latex. Marios Schwab

marios_schwab-2009-spring-03 - karadaLet’s start with latex. If you look at the article (from Kulturspiegel 12/2007, since you all speak German I will not translate it ;-> ) the comment below the photo says: Winter collection 2007/2008. I have checked the official press releases on Style.com and Vogue – no hint of latex at all. Something is wrong somewhere.

Then to the bondage. Karadas and Kikkous are popular and in fashion. Check, for example, photos of Eva Herzigova. No wonder, rope art looks good everywhere: on the wall, on a naked body, under and over the clothes, on a cardboard box (to keep it closed). Rope is so natural, so it can be used virtually everywhere as a decorative element or a barely noticed functional part of… Especially with matching clothes. Got the idea? No? See this post.

Thanks to Mahret.

Gothic festival in Utrecht 2009 – Part I

img__08296l Gothic festival in UtrechtSummer Darkness (“a dark underground interdisciplinair festival”) took place in the gothic centre of Utrecht from Aug 05 to Aug 09. I managed to get to Domplein only on the last day – Sunday. Now I know that I should’ve found more time to enjoy the very special atmosphere! A sea of positive emotions, smiles and “courteosity” everywhere, more photographers than goths, and, of course, the clothes styles varying from pinky flowery anime to vampires and dark medieval wizards and witches.

However – no latex. Pantyhose, stockings new and laddered worn everywhere and on all body parts – yes. Shiny vinyl – yes. Latex-wet-look lycra – yes. Velvet and leather – yes. Corsets and super high heeled boots – yes. But no latex. Actually, latex is way more expensive and much less practical… But still…

Anyway, I made 350 photos within just a few hours. I’m still post-processing them. This is the first part.

Emma Watson and “latex” leggings

Emma Watson in shiny wetlook leggingsI can’t say if Emma Watson and Dasha Zhukova are close friends, but Emma was noticed and pictured by paparazzi together with Dasha and Roman Abramovich watching football (see photo below). The reason I mentioned them both is their fashion style. They definitely have something in common. And they both like shiny “latex” wetlook leggings. Whether the leggings are made by Kova & T (Dasha’s label) or American Apparel, the look is pretty the same.

Also see two interviews below featuring Emma and Alexa Chung in those leggings. Or was Alexa wearing something made out of leather? Not sure…

Stella van Gent. Waiting for the train. Part I

Stella in black seamed pantyhose, high heels, latex skirt and blouseA couple years ago I found a stunning picture showing a woman in black pantyhose, very high heels, very short leather mini skirt. Nobody could tell me who she is. Finally, I figured it by myself.

Stella van Gent from Redoptics.

Here is she in her office clothes (black seamed pantyhose, latex business suit and high heels) waiting for the train.
