Goodbye HMS

black-latex-dress-and-purse-with-silver-spikesOriginally founded in 2006 by Parisian designer, Sophie Richardoz, HMS Latex has finally bid adieu to the world of latex fashion. Drawing inspiration from sexy pin-up girls to demure Victorian maidens, and even bold high fashion catwalks, HMS Latex set the new standard for contemporary latex fashion.

Appearing in magazines such as Elle Italia and Marquis, HMS Latex has received international exposure, even sported by the mother monster herself, Lady Gaga, at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend concert in 2011. Favoring all things punk rock, HMS Latex includes stripes, studs, o-rings and more for a daring, sensual collection. The “Untamed” bodysuit features decorative contrast panels of colored latex, an edgy pick for only the brave. Another enviable, signature look includes a body-con style dress with strappy accents and a thick choker connecting to an O-ring at the bust.

Featuring fitted bustiers and cage detailing, these fiery, form-fitting dresses flatter lovely ladies of all shapes and sizes. More retro-inspired picks include their glam bowtie dress and flirty, playful lingerie, with high waist boyshorts in coquettish stripes. Richardoz truly pushed the boundaries of the latex aesthetic, elevating latex fashion to an elegant art form. Officially closing their doors in July 2014, we say a fond farewell to HMS Latex and wish them well on their next endeavors.
