Fetish Goes Formal With Couture Rubber Lingerie & Fashions From HMS Latex

above: Cage dress and Valentina gown

In 2006, Sophie Richardoz founded a Paris-based company that sells women's fashions crafted from rubber. Usually reserved for kinky creations, HMS latex has turned the clingy fabric into couture -- chic and sexy lingerie, dresses, gowns, skirts, tops, pants and accessories.





With bold colors, feminine details and a retro feel, the fashions move away from fetish and into more fashionable formal wear. Whether you want downright naughty or frilly and coquettish, their large selection of items can provide you with whatever fits your mood.
