Twenty years ago there were only three latex designers in all of North America and only one in New York: The Baroness. Beginning in a small studio in 1994, The Baroness was a pioneer, selling her latex fashions to private clients by appointment only, and wholesale to select boutiques. In 1995 she launched the world’s first online latex clothing store at Baroness.com.
The Baroness has been instrumental in the emergence of rubber from the darkness of dungeons into the bright lights of the silver screen, high fashion catwalks and red carpet award shows. Over the past 20 years she has come to be known as “The Grand Dame of Latex”.
During her twenty years of exploring the unique properties of latex and its construction, The Baroness has influenced the fashion industry through collaborations with Lacoste, NYC men’s wear designer Patrik Ervell, women’s wear designer Nourish Ferrari, and Opening Ceremony. Her inflatable straight jacket was exhibited in the Fashion Institute of Technology museum.
The Baroness’ haute couture designs have made her the go-to designer for an A-list of celebrities, latex lovers, and the fashion elite, including Bergdorf Goodman’s Linda Fargo (who she dressed for the Met Gala Punk Ball); Performers Lady GaGa, Nikki Minaj, and Beyonce; Victoria’s Secret models Naomi Campbell and Giselle; actress Chloe Sevigny; downtown diva Amanda Lepore; and burlesque dancer Dita von Teese; plus many celebrities whose affection for latex remains private.
As an authority on latex, alternative life styles, and clothing and power, The Baroness and her work have been publicized in countless books and magazines including Valerie Steele’s Fetish, fashion, Sex and Power; The New York Times fashion section; V magazine; Vogue; The Village Voice; Mademoiselle; Maxim and others. She has been featured on both HBO’s Real Sex and The Discovery Channel.
With her flair for style, bold personality, and artistic vision The Baroness has performed, lectured and hosted parties, events and fashion shows worldwide.
Ten years ago The Baroness expanded to her retail boutique in New York’s East Village, with a street level store and workshop below, where all latex designs are made by hand. This woman-owned business remains the sole latex-only shop in New York.

Ready to break the mould, leading fetish boutique Honour is building on the success of recent collections Hint of Noir & Please Me Pin-Up, by launching the vibrant, latex collection, Cherry Belle. In a cherries ‘n cream meets Dita Von Teese fusion, this skin-tight collection is sexy, sassy and oh-so seductive.
Despite its recent launch Cherry Belle is creating interest from music videos to magazines covers – watch this space! Channelling glamour goddess Katy Perry, Cherry Belle is bang on trend and the must-have for this year. This sexy, 50’s inspired collection is both chic and edgy and guaranteed to wow. Unique, high-quality and ultra feminine, you can’t miss out on this printed, pin-up set.
Honour’s merchandising manager said of the new collection:
“Retro style doesn’t mean retro quality – lovingly manufactured from superior 0.45mm latex, finding the perfect compromise to create a durable but sensationally thin second skin. The hand-crafted bows along with the delicate cherry print gives this outfit freshness, femininity and individuality – something every woman desires.”
Specializing in fetish clothing for more than 20 years, Honour is renowned for their sexy, radical fashion items and undeniable quality. Find out more at Honour.
Burberry has updated their web store with the Autumn/Winter 2013 Collection – featuring latex, animal print and polished gold detailing. All latex items come in translucent appearance with a velvet-finish and a price tag that only a selected few can afford.
I don’t expect to see any of these items at the next fetish party, they are simply too expensive. Pencil skirts are €955, dresses €1.500 – €1.995 and finally trench coats range from €2.000 – €2.500.
Feel free to leave your thoughts about the Burberry collection in the comments. I would also like to hear suggestions for cheaper alternatives for those that would like to get the look but don’t have the gold.
