What was your first latex item? What is the best way to start with latex clothing?

My first latex piece, was a red catsuit with neck entry.

Neck entry for first latex, that is a bold choice but seems to be the correct one for you.  I don't think I've ever seen a beginner latex wearer go with neck entry as a first piece.  I didn't get my first neck entry until last year and I've been wearing latex since 1999.  It fits you so well, do you mind if I ask who made it?

Yes I know it's unusual, but it really worked for me.

The catsuit is from Latexcatfish.

"Neck entry" reminded me of a fairly cheap latex item: Giant balloons. While not exactly a garment, you can still get inside, even without inflating them. It is a matter of persistance, strength, lube and patience. And when they break, you can use the pieces to make hoods, socks, mittens or whatever you like. Glue with flexible contact adhesive, bicycle tube glue or real latex glue.

I recommend good quality for the first items, because it will provide a better experience, last longer (when you store them well etc.) and if it is not to your liking, you can most probably still sell it for a reasonable price. My first item was an inflatable sleeping bag, which I discovered years after I bought it, simply because it smelled so overwhelmingly awful. That was a type of latex that smells this way for quite a while, but apart from that, fortunately, was good quality. I still have it, it must be almost 30 years old by now!

From ebay, I bought a few latex hoods for prices ranging from 20 to 60 Euro. Most of them have all melted away quickly, even though I kept them clean and powdered.

I would say, if you can, go to a store and have a look what they offer. It might be intimidating at first, but the people there are usually quite nice and they don't care, what kink you have as long as they cann sell it to you 😁
