Without knowing why I'm attracted to latex material which is a very particular material. Not only in terms of feeling but also in terms of fashion.
The first contact was just visual. I remember seeing some music video costumes when I was a kid. Probably PVC or leather and definitely latex or rubber as some would say. It just looked so shiny!! And tight. Without knowing exactly why, I would always come back to it as something I felt attracted. That’s called a fetish, right??
This is a very personal matter but I feel quite open to talk about it... Maybe sometimes too much for my friends... Sorry guys...
At first, I didn't have the chance to experience that material until I turn 20. When I was doing windsurfing I could experience the tightness of a neoprene body suit... May a rubber suit feel the same??? Well actually yes in a way, depending on the thickness of the material.
The body becomes a reflective object of art. Light flowing around the material like water slips on a curved mirror stretching in space.
But that is my personal vision.
You can admit that it is a very interesting material for fashion. And since a year I have started to craft my own garments. I'm particularly into heavy rubber crafting, which means working with thicker latex sheets. Between 0.6 and 1mm thick.
There is my last piece. A trench coat made with natural latex color. I think I spent about a week on it.
It is not recommended to sew because it can tear. It has to be bound with glue.
There you can see some tools I use.
Thanks for vote and support. I'd be happy to answer any questions or comments.
