Be it latex, lace, PVC, denim or satin, we’ve known for years that Madonna is a true ‘material girl.’ The wide variety of styles and textiles she has worn over her career, how she influenced 80s fashion, her video costuming, as well as on stage couture has become iconic. But after appearing with Sabrina Carpenter …

The Costumes Of The Penguin

Now that the Max limited series The Penguin is over, we feel it’s time to explore the show’s wardrobe, with or without latex couture involved. A grittier realization of a Batman/Gotham City spinoff has probably not been seen, and the clothes, as much as the story, tell the tale. While surely there are some great outfits worn …

And then Becky G, in her bright yellow Roberto Cavalli dress, cut up to her waist, leaving the lady bare on one side. The whole concoction was seemingly held in place by only two black straps, which matched her strappy black high heels.

Where Do Old Stage Costumes Go?

Be they a pair of latex pants, Madonna’s Jean Paul Gaultier Cone Bra, or Elvis’ Nudie Gold Lame’ Suit, there are plenty of iconic costumes that our biggest stars have worn currently displayed in a museum.

Remembering Tempest Storm

As 2021 speeds by, we are as much considering the big questions, like where COVID-19 is taking us, to small, who is wearing what specific piece of latex couture, and how well they might be wearing it. But we really can’t let another week flitter away without noticing the death of Annie Blanche Banks. Or …

What Beyoncé Wears When Going Around Again

Currently working through the European stage of their huge On the Run Tour 11, Beyoncé and JAY-Z reveal a costume during the show that would even make a latex clothing devote stand-up and take notice. Interestingly enough, though we reported on the couture the couple is using in ORT11, one of the most unique (and downright sexy) dresses to take notice of appears only on video during the show.

The 2nd Annual Couture & Cars Fashion Show

To be sure, the cars are any amazing accompaniment to the couture and does make the Couture & Cars Fashion Show certainly something we love to be part of. The visual allure of vintage and modern exotic sportscars with models walking a runway among them is a match made in alt. fashion heaven. We know for instance, that the World of WerableArt’s museum, all the way over in New Zealand, featured a match-up of fashion designer’s clothing (our winning one included) with cars just recently and Mr. Bailey’s assumption that more men do attend these shows seems to be born out time and again when we have seen our couture matched with car culture.

Dawnamatrix & Shady Bitch Eyewear

Forever championing the empowerment of women (and men too) Dawnmatrix has always been about expressing one’s self through our textile art.
