Not that it sported any latex couture (there’s one demerit) but when Vogue World debuted in New York in 2023, it turned a section of The Big Apple downtown into a combination of runway and parade, all out in the open air, with vogue models and even Lil Nas X performing. In London, the ‘world’ …
So, it seemed silicone and not latex was the star, in some ways, of the just passed Paris Fashion Week. As were some very interesting haute couture runway reveals. Here’s a quick roundup of a few morsels: XR Brands’ “Ripped Silicone Male Chest” and “Perky Pair Silicone Breasts” saw their fashion runway debut. Both of …
Oh, if there was only one latex swimsuit in the bunch! This is surely a cry latex fashionista could have over the popular HBO series The White Lotus. Premiering in 2021, we are now into the third season of the popular anthology series, and so far, there’s not been any latex couture to be seen. …
News of cosplayers in their leather, latex, and PVC descending on the just passed WonderCon spread like wildfire across the blog o’sphere last week.

Surely, we love her for her music but we also have to applaud Lady Gaga on her choice of couture, lots of it lots of the time, latex. Most recently, on the heels of the release of her new album Mayhem, the Little Monsters mother showcased some scrumptious latex costuming in her Abracadabra music video, which …
On the shiny latex heels of Kylie Jenner partnering her KHY brand with latex designer Poster Girl (which we alerted you to last week), the Jenner sister shared a candid Q&A, while wearing a skin-tight tight latex dress.

You know how we just love latex or any other kind of alternative, even fetish fashion being displayed, honored, and exhibited in a museum setting. We have even been around for a few, showcasing our latex couture with models either walking the runway in an indoor art space or some of our wares being showcased …
We know the Jenner/Kardashian ladies are no strangers to latex couture. Kylie, Kim, Kourtney, Kendall, Khloé, and momma Kris, have stepped out in spectacular alternative fashion choices in their time in the public eye. Many times we’ve seen any one of the ladies (or maybe even more than one at the same time) wearing our …
Once again, we can proudly say there has been a bunch of recent latex couture sightings….

We can’t exactly weigh in if it was made of latex or not, but there was no ignoring the 60-foot Kim Kardashian balloon lying on a platform in New York City’s Time Square. The ‘gigantic Kim” (two words that could often be used to describe the uber-popular reality star/business mogul) was an advertisement for Kim’s …
We might not exactly term it this way, but surely, wearing latex could very well give you “heightened confidence.” These are the two exact words used in this new article from the Hans India website, exploring how a wearer enjoys such positive gains when wearing a latex catsuit. Starting off by claiming that very few …
Impossible as it is not to watch the red carpet walk into the Oscars, (and wish for a hint of latex) surely the stars making the scene of parties before and after the ceremony (certainly after) get as much press. Hinting at what they might wear at the actual ceremony, switching outfits between what is …
We certainly have seen latex used in athletic clothing, now called “Athleisure Wear.” But with adidas’ new relaunch of their latex clothing line, anyone into wearing latex for their workout need to take notice. And maybe spend a few dollars. Available only in the US presently, and only in their Women’s Original collection, what the …
Not all the latex stories we mine and munch about here are about a sly new latex bodysuit or a glove accessory. And although we’ll surely chase a Lady Gaga or a Timothée Chalamet when they wear something unusually alternative (especially if what they are wearing is made of latex), sometimes it is the day-to-day, more …
So many fashion genres and cultural interests embrace latex couture. Be it fetish parties, comic convention cosplay dress-ups, or just some celebrity wearing a latex LBD for a Hollywood award show, latex wardrobes and accessories cut across our lives in many instances. And as you have read here aplenty (and really what this blog is …
When a publication like Cosmo goes on about two recent latex couture sightings, one pretty much on the skirts of the other, I guess we need to take notice (see here). We reported here on Maya Jama’s dress last week, her couture choice still making news, in the Cosmo article above and beyond. It seems …

Be it the array of naughty latex wardrobe in Cardi B’s WAP video, a one-of-a-kind meat dress, Madonna in her lace and crosses, Pharrell’s hat, or Elvis’ Nudie suit, there have been as many designs as textiles that have captured the cultural imagination…as well as the news. Now we have Kendrick Lamar and his jeans? …
Yes, Lady Gaga, give us our latex! In her brand-new Abracadabra music video, which premiered during the just-past 2025 Grammy awards, the lady who answers her Little Monsters dreams as much as wears a startling array of fantastic costumes (and quite often latex couture) once again thrills us all. Working with a wide variety of …
We count on the Grammys, more than any other US award show for revealing a celebrity or two wearing some fantastic latex couture. And we surely have seen a few stunning moments over the years of our favorite textile at the show. Most recently there was Dojo Cat at the 65th Grammy’s two years ago, …
On to even more interesting looks from Paris Fashion Week…sans latex couture. Valentino got all ‘theatrical with it’ in Alessandro Michele’s debut.

Armani Privé presented his spring/summer 2025 Lumières collection, inspired by all things light, ninety-three satin …
Who doesn’t love a little parody, a surprise reveal, or even a political statement or two with their latex couture?

All fashion, be it latex wardrobe, high-end ‘streetwear, ‘ or haute couture modeled at the current Paris Fashion Week, is cyclic. Trends come and go. If one hangs around long enough, even the most casual fashionista will recognize some styles returning again and again. From haircuts to shoe wear to wardrobe, all that is old …
While in the US, the big news was Trump’s second Presidential inauguration (and for the fashionable, Melania’s eye-catching/obscuring Eric Javits boater), some fun latex couture was spotted just recently that had nothing to do with US politics. Heidi Montag became known to the public after being cast in MTV’s The Hills reality series. Subsequently releasing …
In the many times we have presented our latex couture at fashion shows, runway events, art galleries, or parties, we have noticed that you can pretty much set up anywhere to show off great ideas, celebrate social gatherings, and reveal cool clothes. But presenting a fashion show in a world-renowned spot synonymous with classic art, …
For us here at Dawnamatrix, one of the better latex news sites is Latex24/7. We look across the site often to see what stories they might have culled that we missed or that they have covered from their UK-centric POV. The site just released: Latex Fashion Explodes: Hottest Trends for 2025 Revealed! We feel the …
Coming clean here, we are asking your forgiveness for passing over these two latex fashion highlights just past. Admitting we missed some late-in-the-year latex turns we can only blame the annual holidaze mayhem keeping us from our usual diligent post (and postings). But it was a great year overall for our favorite textile and we …
So, we caught no latex outfits or even latex accessories at the just-passed Golden Globes. But there were a few juicy sightings of some rather cool couture among all the usual red carpet interview walk-ins, high Hollywood glamour, and a reported extravagant attendee ‘goodie bags’ filled with over a million dollars’ worth of stuff.Melissa McCartney …
Known as much for her music, iconic video dance moves, a live TV moment that incurred the FCC’s wrath, and costumes and couture that runs the gambit from latex to lace to everything in between, it’s no wonder that Janet Jackon’s new Las Vegas residency is making news. The two-hour-plus show, playing at Resorts World, …
If we were in a self-serving mood, we could expound on another year of us contributing a latex outfit to the World of Wearable Art competition and what happened there (which you can read here). And there were surely other things we wrestled our couture into (see that story here). But as with part 1 …
As we usually do at the end of each year, it’s time to take a look back at what we saw in latex couture, be it on a red carpet, some new superhero movie cosplayers will be suited up soon to emulate, a music video, across a fashion show runway or for just the everyday …
It’s not exactly that the new version of Count Orlock, in the just-released update of Nosferatu, is wearing any latex to speak of.

In his recent Achieving Care for Your Latex Apparel – TechBullion, Abdul Baist gives us an extensive rundown of how to care for our favorite textile. And we couldn’t have ‘said’ it better.

Netflix’s Emily in Paris isn’t a show specifically championing latex couture…but we love it all the same. Now it seems the audience who has made the show a hit wants to love it live.

Back in this blog we posted last week, we were wondering (pardon the pun), along with lots of fans, about the state of Wonder Woman’s new costume changes-a latex costume or not-as seen in issue Wonder Woman #15. Yes, we pretty much ‘geek out’ like the rest of you over these changes, be they big …
