Bettie Page Red Latex Hobble Skirt XS-XL

Bettie Page

£70.00 GBP

Playful Promises items can take about a week to dispatch - and they're all limited editions that can sell out fast!

This Bettie Page lingerie line is created by Playful Promises; lingerie was clearly a staple of Bettie’s modelling wardrobe, especially in the work she did with fetish photographer Irving Klaw. With a more pin-up and kitsch approach than our own designs, they offer retro fans a different take on the vintage theme - less dangerous, more fun!

The new Bettie Page latex accessories range sets off any retro look with a fun, contemporary edge.

This red latex pencil skirt is very tight fitting and rolls off and on (or at least it does if you use enough talc/lubricant and are wiggly - I've never been able to do this). It is midi to knee length and high waisted and is therefore somewhat constricting once on!

Latex Product Info

Latex accessories will arrive lightly dusted in order to keep their condition, so they will look matt.  To shine latex, wash in lukewarm water, let dry, and then apply latex shiner (silicone spray, lubricant or liquid).

To clean, use warm clean water and water alone.  Wipe off the excess and leave to dry flat away from heat or light. Lightly dust with talc and store in a plastic bag.

Latex is stretchy but can be torn by excessive force or pulls. When wearing a latex garment it will need talc or silicone to move over the skin.

Things to avoid:

Most metals react with latex and produce a stain so avoid contact with piercings or jewelry.

Sunlight, heat and humidity can discolour latex.

Sharp objects can puncture or tear latex

Oil causes latex to degrade so no sensual massages, please!

Don't go near naked flames - it's highly flammable.

So basically, use talc and silicone, keep it in the shade, just use water to clean, don't mix it with oils or jewelry, poke holes in it or set it on fire, and I realise this makes it sound high maintenance but honestly it's not, it's just not the same as satin or velvet so we have to explain.

Made To Order Emerald Fan Lace Girdle

Kiss Me Deadly

£149.00 GBP

Fan Laced Girdles were invented to help women dress themselves. Now, in a modern context, that might sound insane, but there was a period where women's clothing came with an almost compulsory corset, and though you can lace those yourself, the longer length the corset and the less flexible you get, the more challenging that becomes! In fan lacing, the laces come into straps on either side, and you simple pull on them rather than having to adjust all the corset lacing individually. It's a signature look, and surprisingly practical!

Originally, these tend to be made in a sort of peachy cotton with heavy duty lacing, Kiss Me Deadly wanted to update the style. These are made with duchess satin, synthetic whalebone, and a touch of powernet, with contrast fan lacing in ribbon coming into a grosgrain ribbon strap. Because this garment is largely non stretch, it functions more like a corset than our usual girdles. Rather than a busk, it does up with hooks and eyes down the front side.

Sizing; this garment is non-stretch fabric so all the flexibility comes from the lacing, as with corsets. This means you can have them fully closed or up to a few inches apart  up and down the back (obviously it's fine to have it more open at the bottom than at the top, or any other variation. We wouldn't recommend more than about a 3 inch gap). Fully closed, the measurements are:

Please bear in mind that these measurements are the SMALLEST the garment can be.

Rose Noir Latex Nouveau Corselette

Kiss Me Deadly

£495.00 GBP

Rose Noir Designs worked exclusively with us to create this collection of latex fabulousness. If you're not familiar with latex then you will need to read this blog before ordering! 

If you're a latex fan then you'll know that making latex garment is a slow, zen-like process of carefully and precisely bonding seams together using glues and solvents, which is practically an art form in itself.  As each garment is hand-made anyway, Rose and I have agreed to do these garments made-to-measure, so please expect to need a tape measure, fill in a form, and give us about 8 weeks to finish your item.

This corselette is based on a combination of the underwired longline bra and the girdle skirt, formed into a one-piece corselette inspired by our Vargas dress. It's hand painted with metallic Art Nouveau motifs, shown in black with silver. It has 6 metal garter tabs, adjustable shoulder straps, and a two-way zip at the back.

The last image is a chart of the sizes of wire available; if your normal bra size is outside of this wire range we might not be able to make the bra in your size, please contact us to check.

Kiss Me Deadly

£235.00 GBP

Made to order in the UK - please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery.
Lou Watson handmakes our corsets in a workshop in Sheffield, England.

Who could resist this lustrous ivory silk? An unusually heavy weight of silk makes it suitable for corsets and meant excitement! Flat and spiral steel bones combine for waist reduction, and for aesthetics we chose satin ribbon back lacing. It's shown with the ivory bralet and knicker and the Dietrich set.

It also has a modesty panel and front opening steel busk, this underbust corset has a slightly longer, curvier line than the DeVille, and will reduce your waist by 2-4 inches. Order a size 2-4 inches smaller than your natural waist.

If you would like a size we don't show here, then we can grade different ones for a £50 fee.

Lou Watson handmakes our corsets in a workshop in Sheffield, England.

A steel boned underbust corset in all black satin and trimmed in black.

A shorter version of our underbust corsets, with spiral steel boning, flat steel busk and back, eyelets and black satin back lacing, waist tape, modesty panel and cotton lining. Shape-changing!

Order corsets 2-4 inches smaller than your natural waist size in inches, depending on your comfort, squishiness, and frequency of corset wearing.

Please note that the last picture shows the purple silk version; this version is entirely black.

If you would like a size we don't show here, then we can grade different ones for a £50 fee.

For a fully custom version complete with toile, please contact us for a quote.
