BDSM What not to Wear

[Ebonyfire]

Ok, time for some fun.

I am sure many of you have either seen or heard of the TV show "What not to Wear", where they blindside some poor person who is a fashion disaster. Well I am sure many or all of us have been to some fetish events or play parties where there has been fashion right ons and fashion faux pas.

So, now you can describe the BDSM fashion disasters you have seen and/or describe the best outfits you have ever seen (if they exist).

OK, I am fed up with seeing male submissives in the frilly white shirt. It is a fashion look that few can pull off. Most of the time it looks like a maternity shirt for men or a badly designed minidress.

The first time I saw it was in a Shakespeare play, Hamlet. The Elizabethans loved their frilly shirts. I am sure it was to take their mind off the smell from not bathing or the lead poisoning from their makeup.

What is the excuse now? Next!

On the Best dressed side, no one dresses better than Shadowsdream. And yes I am prejudiced! I love her chainmail and leather combinations.

oh yes, and SD in leather... leather skirt and bustier (how the hell do you spell that?) The night I met Her She had on a leather skirt and soft sweater but when She removed it, She had on this leather thingy. It was sooo sexy and nice.

You know, by the way... She's really, really tiny. LOL I think we could actually see eye-to-eye. That's a rare thing for two short women. And Eb, you aren't much taller are you?

Personally, I'm no fan of latex, myself. It's too hot. lol

I am a stately 5 ft 6 in, I'll have you know!

I agree about the latex, it is too much like greasing yourself up before placing in the oven!

Ewwww pirate shirt! Nooooooo

Don't be dissing the latex. Yes, you do have to get lubed, but that can be kind of fun. And friction between latex covered Domme and latex covered boy, or the lack thereof with a squirt of Eros, is really quite fun.

 

[Ebonyfire]

Oh yeah! Don't you have to have a special type of chest for that?

 

[SweetCherry]

Now this is a television show I'd enjoy watching! For every aweful article of clothing that gets worn, the offender in question gets so many whacks with any impliment the show hosts desire.

 

[Ebonyfire]

Say no to...

Leather chaps! [Unless you really ride a horse]

I think that would work!

LOL, I have trouble squeezing into my blue jeans!

Or you are gay and have a hot ass.

It's like the BDSM equivalent of square-toe loafers. You must be very very very metrosexual if you aren't gay to work the bareass chaps. They must be worn with wescos. Not Docs, not western boots, not ankle boots, wescos or real linemans' boots.

Chaps are fetish 201.

Collars that say "Mistress" or "Master" on them. I might be a bit old fashioned here, but a collar says "pyl" to me, not "PYL" so I tend to take collared PYLs with a grain of salt. It's possible that they may be a switch, but I've never seen a collar that says "Switch" on it. (I've actually seen this phenomon here on Lit, in another forum.)

Yes!

A nice neck corset or ringless collar isn't a terrible accessory, but it's just cheese when you need an IDing phrase, like you might forget.

That is the problem, the guys I see wearing them are hot ass challenged!

You know it is just wrong when you see pre-pubescent teens wearing collars with Mistress on them!

Yesssss....

brings us to, don't wear it if you do not have the body to pull it off. It's impossible to be big and hot if you are hanging out, stuffed in, maxing it out - and least sexy of all UNCOMFORTABLY showing more than you want. I was plus sized prior to getting sick, and this did necessitate having corsets to wear over and under things at times, I was aware of my belly and I could not wear certain things and look good and I made peace with that.

I still can't wear certain things and look good, it's just how it goes.

It's totally possible to be big and hot when you are wearing the right thing made to fit showing what you want to show.

Conversely, I think latex on girls who don't have some junk in the trunk looks really bad.

edited to add a SPEW ALERT


And spikes. Spikey dog collars are more Sid and Nancy than bdsm, I think.

!!SPEW ALERT!!

I'm starting to think that this thread was not such a good idea, because now I have this vision of an ass challenged, non metrosexual person, bare assed in cheap latex chaps and fluffy pirate shirt, wearing AirJordans and a spiky collar that says "Mistress" on it.

I need a drink.

Hear! Hear! I think that males without junk in the trunk looks bad too. How many times have you seen a guy with a hot package turn around and show no ass at all? It ruins the picture for me!

Eb

You're 5'6"??? I had no idea you are so tall!!!

 

[snowy ciara]

You're all taller than me! This is so not fair. That's it, I just decided, someday I'm gonna figure out how to wear heels.

Oh I bet not... how tall are you?

 

[snowy ciara]

5 foot 1 ish when the tide's high and I'm wearing the right shoes.

Me too (5' 3/4") and I bet SD is even shorter than you and I. LOL She's really tiny. But she packs a lot of Domming in that little bod. ;-)

 

[snowy ciara]

giggling My fault, I goofed. For some reason, I thought it was Ms. Shadowsdream saying she was 5 ft 6, but it was the lovely Ms. Ebonyfire. I've figured out that when it comes to the power of the sort that we play with, size is irrelevent.

My apologies for confusing You two, Ms. Shadowsdream and Ms. Ebonyfire... But at least I have good taste in who I confused You with!
