We, the poor, downtrodden latex faithful saw no big, or even small, mention of our favorite textile making fashion news this week. But this week we’ve put together a round-up of three of our more popular S’s making fashion news Sydney Sweeney, Shakira, and Taylor Swift.
Nothing Earth-shattering here, but fun all the same.
Sydney Sweeney For Novig
Sweeney’s latest controversy stems from her appearance in a new ad for sports trading app Novig.
In the ad, Sydney makes strategic use of various sports equipment to cover her otherwise almost nude body. She sits atop a basketball hoop, rolls across a pool table, swings a golf club, saying: “Think you know sports? Prove it.”
Given the wildfire blush of news over her American Eagle campaign, illegal cavorting at the Hollywood sign for her lingerie line, SYRN, S.S. is no novice at engendering controversy over what she says or, in this case, does not wear in the advertising campaigns.
Shakira & Gaurav Gupta
We have surely written about the fantastic array of concert costumes our best and brightest wear… and yes, sometimes they are made of latex. In just two instances, involving us specifically, we provided Beyoncé’s backing dancers with various accessories, from latex bras to high-waisted panty girdle sets to leggings, for two separate MTV VMA’s.
This week we learned that Shakira added a new bespoke outfit, via designer Gaurav Gupta, during her “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour.”
The 49-year-old singer hit the stage in Madrid wearing a metallic gold Lunar Wolf breastplate and handwoven silk brocade skirt crafted in Gupta’s signature sculptural style.

Taylor Swift Makes Trouble For The Chiefs’….Store
As to be expected, when Taylor Swift attends a game at Arrowhead Stadium to cheer her husband Travis Kelce (or anywhere, actually), she might get a few cameras on her and a ton of posts. When the Chiefs hosted the Indianapolis Colts last Sunday night, Taylor was wearing a red spaghetti-strap vintage Chiefs tank.
Fans went crazy buying the top off the Chiefs’ online store, which the team’s Front Office Sports responded to, saying: The Chiefs tank top Taylor Swift wore to Sunday’s game is already sold out on the team’s official shop.
It’s not known when the Chiefs’ store will restock the tank.
