It’s been hot, really hot, this summer. To provide some relief from the scorching sun and humidity, we are showing off some of the coolest vinyl and latex fashions we’ve found for summer. First off is one of our favorite designers, Abigail Greydanus, who created awesome fashions for both men and women from latex sheeting.
Abigail never ceases to amaze, and there is a reason why she works with some of the biggest names in Hollywood when it comes to her custom designs.
Next we have a smattering of images that range from couture, to sporty, to the traditional bikini. Yes, even the most straight forward and stale design as the bikini can be made anew by leveraging non-traditional materials like faux leather or vinyl fabric.
I like how you highlighted Abigail Greydanus using latex sheeting for both menswear and womenswear; it really shows why she’s trusted by big Hollywood clients for custom pieces.
Interesting mix of couture and sporty looks in one roundup; the idea of using latex and vinyl in summer heat is bold, but the visual impact you showed makes the case.
The section about reimagining a basic bikini with vinyl or faux leather stood out, since it proves even simple silhouettes can feel new with unconventional materials.
