Bettie Page Red Latex Hobble Skirt XS-XL
£49.00 GBP £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
£149.00 GBP
This item is made to order when Lou, Kiss Me Deadly's Sheffield-based corsetiere, knows she has enough time! It takes around 2-4 weeks.
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.
