Whatever the U.S. relationship with Vladimir Putin might be in the future, here at Dawnamatrix we have always thought of ourselves as global ambassadors of latex good will for any person or place, anywhere across the globe.
Jess Merriman of MomoCon claims that “Our Cosplayers on Ice event goes beyond cosplay.” And one could certainly say that the cosplayers coming out for the new Star Wars adventure go beyond the usual need to dress in fantastical garb. It’s not that this science fiction movie franchise started this need for dress up, but certainly the stark black and white outfits we see in the Star Wars universe (where the evil Storm Troopers are dressed in white, which is typically the color for good guys) all those delicious aliens or super feminist Jyn Ersa dressing in hooded robes to her full flight suit slick black gear give serious cosplayers lots to work with.
Dawnamatrix will have our yearly sale from Black Friday through Cyber Monday. 20% off all catalog items with code THANKS2016 from November 25th to 28th.
Robbie Williams has released his seeming first single “Party Like a Russian” from his new Heavy Entertainment Show album, mining a wonderfully fetish dress-up look for the song’s video. Obviously taking a cue from the iconic Robert Palmer “Addicted To Love” video (as well as Shania Twain’s all-male beefy backing band on “”Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” ) Williams has his ‘band’ of ladies in high-knee, pinpoint heel, lace-up ballet boots and it is quite the sight.
Also on the list for us interested in alternative wardrobe (as well as alternative life-styling), you should grab up your tickets for another event happening in Amsterdam, the Dominatrix weekend, before they sell-out. The main party starts 11/2 and presently there is a host of what are called “Combi Tickets” packages available. Those planning to go, or right now just thinking about it, can take advantage of the two days in any combination they like.
Alongside gloves from Balenciaga, Tiffany & Co. necklace and bracelets, and top by Tome, all on model Sarah Brannon we are once again thrilled to be part of Interview magazine. See the magazine page here https://www.interviewmagazine.com/fashion/full-throttle/
VFiles models walked down the runway in umbrella hats and plastic bag dresses.
Chromat revealed a look of black straps over a high-waisted panty two-piece.
Namilia did us all proud with two latex-hooded models, one a see-thru hood matching a latex top of the same thin vanilla and a second model in a thicker white hood (sporting a shocking braid out the top). Another model wore an open shirt, chains across her bared breasts attached to a collar with the ubiquitous black X’s in tape across her nipples.
Jeremy Scott went all sequined color, with asymmetrical 80’s-influenced lines as much in tops as eyewear and wigs.
Whoever performers or just announces the winners, no matter how much latex is on hand, through all the surprises that are bound to occur (the VMA’s are really one of the best shows for surprising audiences) next week at Madison Square Garden in New York City, we are sure to all see some unforgettable sights and hear some inspiring sounds
With Kayne’s solidifying his connection with Adidas just this past June, the Yeezy line as much about the sneakers that sell out as it is anything else, and the Pablo stores sure to bring in crowds boasting exclusive wardrobe items for a limited time only, Kayne assault on the fashion world for this Fall 2016 might well be unprecedented.
A little clutch might make more of the statement you are looking for then a big purse (plus be easier to carry). Yes, that hood might just be perfect for that outfit, but do you need the tail as well (surely, we will sell you both!) Or have you the tail, do you need the goggles, or if you have the goggles need you the…you get the point. Don’t overburden your wardrobe with too many extras, or if you do have the sensibilities to overdo the accessories, then pile them on as tastefully as you can so they don’t clash…unless you are looking for a bold statement of clashing that no one is soon to forget.
Beyoncé broke her new ‘visual album on HBO this past Saturday, and though there wasn’t a latex outfit to be seen, it was a musical treat as well as a fashion bonanza. The hour-long 12 video program “Lemonade” featured designers like Air and Yeezy, Phelan, Saint Laurent as well as virtually unknowns like Yousef al-Jasmi, all dressing Miss Bey swimmingly indeed.
The ‘streetwear’ aesthetic is nothing new of course. But with the much acclaimed Kanye “Yeezy Season 3” show at Madison Square Garden at the just past New York Fashion week, the French label Vetements pieces being seen across runways in France’s capital, Rihanna creating oversized hoodies and “deconstructed” sweats for her Fenty x Puma collection, and fashionista audiences sitting at shows in ripped jeans and tee’s, the time is now for a decided non-haute couture look.
She’s still not sporting any latex accessories, but the 2016 Barbie, as just announced from its maker Mattel, certainly is seeing some interesting modernizing. And it’s not so much the cars, planes or even the fantasy wardrobe the doll is getting anew, as it is options in body types that makes this year’s plastic lady so interesting.
One can wear a hood or a sumptuous latex kimono and still feel the need to change-up, get into another piece of fetish wardrobe, accessorize. Akin to not being able to eat just one potato chip or considering that second tattoo, the thing with starting, adding to or bolstering a fantasy wardrobe is that one tends to want to add to that wardrobe again and again. A celeb of Ruby Rose’s stature or a Miley Cyrus (the reigning queen of award show change-ups) has the facility to keep changing during any one show or performance.
Main characters new and old are featured on the poster, but Luke Skywalker’s absence on the artwork has been fodder for ripe net rumor (and Mark Hamill, along with Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher are indeed returning for The Force Awakens as their characters Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Princess Leia respectively). And though Skywalker/Hamill’s omission in the new poster art has fueled plenty of fan worry and debate (and maybe it is all a clever ploy by the studio to create all the chatter) if one were to study the poster even in passing, one would realize that once again, fetish costume fans and movie fashionistas have lots to celebrate.
And speaking of a stellar tennis star with the name Williams, Venus Williams (Serena’s sister if you didn’t know!) has her own “EleVen” fashion line. Started by Venus’ collection features a goodly amount and seems to focus most on work-out clothing and accessories as well as some casual clothing.
And as mentioned there is Michael Jordan’s “Air Jordan” line begun as sneaker collection with Nike back in the mid 80’s, now grown to an accessories and clothing behemoth that includes hats and even basketballs.
It’s not every day the fashion world gets such a comedic intentioned send-up, but it very much did in the 2001 comedy classic Zoolander…and will again when Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson reprise their model adversary roles in “Zoolander 2.” The film’s teaser trailer hit this week-see here-and it is pretty much a hoot…as we all assumed it would be. Ben Stiller’s pucker and that voice he adopts for the character alone make the trailer hilarious.
Our latest credit comes from this decided global exploration, via Vogue Ukraine. In the famous couture magazine’s May issue we have contributed Premium Thigh Highs, Lace Shrug, and Underwire Bra. This new shoot in Vogue features model Mirte Maas wearing or wares in photos shot by Jack Waterlot, with the stylist on the shoot Amy Mach. We previously worked with Amy Mach and Jack Waterlot on photo editorials for L’Officiel Magazine (including the project with Sharon Stone, see here) and we can’t express enough how thrilled we are to join their team once again, once again for another international high-end publication.
From February 24-March 1, 2015 CineKink NYC returns for its twelfth year. Opening Tuesday, February 24th@ 8 PM, with a fundraising kick-off extravaganza at Taj (48 W. 21st Street, NYC), the festival moves to Anthology Film Archives (32 Second Avenue, NYC) from Wednesday, February 25 through Saturday, February 28, and then there’s a DIY filmmaking workshop, awards celebration and an “AfterGlow” play party to end everything on Sunday, March 1.
Fans as we are of all kinds of cinema, but especially films of a decidedly ‘edgy’ sensibility, the list of what will be shown this year reads to us like quite the scrumptious shmosregboard. On 2/25 (just two days from now, so be quick and get your tickets here) the festival opens with films “Inside Her Sex” and “Air Sex: The Movie.” Other titles spanning the end of the week and across the weekend are: “Love Hard,” “Body Of God” “A Tribute To Club 90” documentary, “High Shine: 15 Years Of International Ms Bootblack” (something lots of Dawnamarix fans might be interested in?). On the last day a course will be presented for making your own naughty movie, FROM FANTASY TO FILM as well as the annual Cinekink Awards and a party to follow to close-out the event.
Sure, we’d be the first to champion buying that https://dawnamatrix.com/shop/dresses/asymmetrical-ruffle-minidress-2/or one of our signature kimonos and jumping right into fantasy couture. But the reality of the situation is that one should take baby steps when changing or adding to one’s wardrobe with latex or any other alternative fashion pieces. Maybe you can start with a pair of latex pants, a shirt, or some lingerie (something only a few people might see.) Start simple for your first salvo across the bow of your fantasy wardrobee
Hoping to demystify fetishism by using the fetish community’s p.o.v. Carl’s documentary-which team Dawnamatrix is part of-is aimed to serve as “a first contact between the fetish world and the educated general public.” Begun in spring 2011 and completed this year, Carl truly lets the people in our community-models, designers, photographers, event producers, painters and filmmakers –speak for themselves about their lives, their ideas and their particular passions.

In our first blog about our recent trip to Japan we elaborated on a surprise adventure we experienced when entering the country. But there was more to our visit then just team Dawnamatrix being filmed for the T.V. show “Why did you come to Japan? 「Youは何し日本へ？」” . In fact, in what we wrote in our last blog, we stumbled into that show appearance but the real reason we came to Japan this time was to attend the wedding of our friend Masakazu (the groom) to Mayu (his bride.)
Stylist Amy Mach contacted us to pull garments for a shoot for November’s L’Officiel Singapore Magazine. Traveling to Japan as we were this was a perfect opportunity to feature Dawnamatrix in a startling beautiful high-end publication while we paired with equally high-end designers. The model featured in the pictorial, Hailey Clausen is “the face of Gucci” and to say we were thrilled have our wares in the shoot with Louboutin, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, etc. would be a monumental understatement.
The sky is the limit with our Galaxy Orbit Latex Hat. An avant garde structured accessory made with your choice of our exclusive galaxy latex and/or standard latex, this is one piece sure to capture everyone’s attention. We wanted to present a full collection with our Space and Time line, creating head-to-toe couture. This hat …
There was Daniel Radcliffe dressed as Spider-Man, not hiding from Voldemort but more from fans. Peter Jackson was a scary black-and-white jester (he posted some Facebook pics of himself following someone wearing “The Hobbit” T-shirt) and Jack Black went as a storm trooper claiming he simply wanted to be left alone to buy action figures. Game of Thrones Maisie Williams sported a Guy Fawkes mask on the floor then later at a party wore a Ryan Jude Novelline dress made of graphic novel pages. She’s worn this dress before, but it was no less impressive her second time out.
As much as we go on about fashion, modeling, latex clothing, summer super hero movies, Art in America and good old fetishes there is no ignoring The World Cup 2014. And if you think for a second that there isn’t a fair amount of reporting, critique and just downright amazement of what the players are wearing on the field as much as on how they are playing then you are simply ignoring how much fashion cuts a deep color swatch into modern day sports.
There are just certain instances where we connect with the right photographer, a well seasoned model or two and get to show off a piece that is truly fantasy inspired or specifically designed for event/costume wear.
The press was slightly shocked at a recent photocall for her new movie Maleficent when Angelina Jolie showed up at Kensington Palace in a white Atelier Versace dress. Though she was sporting Louboutin heels with a deep red seemingly dripping down the back, Brad Pitt’s lady was looking positively alluring in white. And while we are all used to Jolie looking fetching the public is not so used to the lady in white…or any light color that is.
