Between instagram and pinterest there is a lot of awesome new eye candy floating around the inter-webs. Every once and a while when we aren’t dreaming up new fabrics to bring you, we devote some of our creative energy to surfing around the net and checking out the latest in latex and vinyl fashions.
Below we have share some of our favorite finds including links to where you can discover some inspiration of your own.

Seeing both Pinterest collections and the followgram tag together really highlights the contrast between curated inspiration and the more spontaneous posts people share.
The mix of Instagram and Pinterest sources really shows how much latex fashion is spreading online, especially with that followgram latex tag pulling in so many varied styles.
I like that you highlighted specific Pinterest boards like wifey141 and lyciastorm, since it makes it easy to fall down a rabbit hole of latex looks instead of randomly searching.
The idea of using these platforms as a creative recharge makes sense, especially when the boards you picked show everything from high fashion shoots to everyday styling.
It’s cool that you take time away from designing fabrics to gather inspiration, because the pieces in those links definitely reflect different directions latex fashion is heading.
The Instagram link stood out to me since it captures more candid, real-life latex outfits compared to the more polished shots usually found on Pinterest boards.
Browsing through the lyciastorm board after reading this, I noticed a lot of layering ideas with latex that I hadn’t really considered before.
I appreciate that you didn’t just talk about trends but actually linked directly to boards, because it makes it easier to explore without guessing what to search for.
That instagr.am post link was a nice touch since it gives a snapshot of how latex shows up in social feeds, not just in carefully assembled collections.
I ended up clicking through the valerierayne board and noticed how much color variation there is beyond black, which is something I don’t always associate with latex.
Those curated boards you shared feel more useful than just browsing, especially the “love the look of latex” one which has a nice balance of wearable and more editorial pieces.
