Wilde Latex!

I just found a latex designer I hadn't seen before - William Wilde. Wilde has specialized as a bespoke Bridal wear cutter, fetish wear designer and custom designer at luxury Soho nightclub The Box in London. He has also worked in Vegas, designing costumes for a show, and dressed several celebrities. In 2010 he revealed his debut latex collection - Madame Boucherie - which became an instant success. All latex pieces are made by hand, and sometimes combined with luxury fabrics, signature prints, and other detailing. Here are a few of my favorite picks. For more, please visit his website!

Helmut Newton

Helmut Newton - born Helmut Neustädter (1920-2004) - was a German photographer who later moved to Australia. He worked as a fashion photographer for magazines like French, British and Australian Vogue, and Harper's Bazaar. His style was marked by erotic, very stylized scenes, often with sadomasochistic and fetishistic undertones. He also worked in portraiture and more fantastical studies though. Later in his life he lived both in Monte Carlo and Los Angeles. He died after a car crash in the driveway of the Chateau Marmont, which had been his LA home during the last of his years.

Here is some of his work...

Bohemique FW 2012

A few months ago I discovered the Russian clothing line called Bohemique, and did a post on their wonderful clothes. Some days ago they posted their lookbook for Fall/Winter 2012 on Facebook. Just like when I first discovered this fetish inspired brand, I can yet again imagine myself wearing almost everything from the collection, and here are my favorites!

John Willie

John Willie (born John Alexander Scout Coutts, 1902) was a pioneer when it comes to fetish photography and bondage illustrations. Between 1946-1949 he published - somewhat irregularly - his own magazine Bizarre. This magazine included photographs, drawings of costume designs, and letters from readers, concerning things like high heels, bondage, sadomasochism, transvestism, corsets, and body modification.

As a bondage artist Willie is most known for his character Sweet Gwendoline, a rather naïve blond damsel in distress, who unfortunately finds herself tied up in scene after scene. She always gets rescued - and tied up gain, but only for benevolent reasons - by Secret Agent U-69. A third character who reappears is the moustache-clad villain Sir Dystic D'Arcy, that Willie based on himself. Here are some of his illustrations!
