Others might have a foothold in creating cool latex creations on Etsy, but Shoshanna Ani of Shhh! Couture definitely kills it with her signature “Geekery” category. With fantastical latex costumes stretching from Star Wars to Star Trek, geeks will delight in these outrageously creative and awesome picks.

Princess Leia’s bustier costume is practically legendary at this point, but reworked as latex? What’s not to love! Quirky pieces like a Stormtrooper inspired bodysuit are bound to have people grinning, while a latex bodycon inspired by Boba Fett just screams badass. Playful and cute, the R2D2 bodysuit is a fresh latex pick.

Extra details, like latex bracelets at the wrist, add a little bit of character and let your personality shine. The iconic Stormtrooper cosplay has been faithfully recreated by fans all over the globe, so take an alternative spin on things with a latex bodysuit. Shaped panels and appliques highlight curves without taking away from the traditional Stormtrooper look. This item will be customized to fit you, including an open back design and neck fastening at the back with a press stud.

For more all out creative goodness, check out the set of Flintstone inspired looks for Pebble, Bamm Bamm and Betty. Dress up with friends for an extra dose of latex fun. On the comic end of the spectrum, we’ve all seen Supergirl and even Poison Ivy cosplays at conventions practically everywhere. With latex, everyone can let their inner bombshell out to play. Headed out this Halloween? Look fierce for that costume contest with a latex Wonder Woman bikini or a gender bending Captain America bodysuit.

If the assortment of options over at geek heaven wasn’t enough for you, there are plenty of eye catching latex dresses to choose from. For a fun, retro-inspired twist, opt for the 50’s style dress with a flirty skater skirt design. Add matching colored pumps and accessories for a complete Pin up look.

Always looking for the most unexpected, there are other eclectic styles including a sailor uniform, teal houndstooth patterning and a tropical floral print design. Or, add a dose of gothic noir to your wardrobe with one of the latex rubber strap detail dresses. O rings add interest, while strappy details amp up the volume on an already smoking hot latex dress. With an assortment of latex garments on deck, these hand crafted items from Shhh! Couture are sculpted to show off a perfect hourglass silhouette.
