The team over at BuzzFeed Australia rounded up a group of gals to try fitted latex garments—for the very first time! Sonya, manager over at Max Black, asked each of the ladies if they’ve ever tried latex before, and they were a little nervous to take the plunge.

One felt extremely hesitant, and another literally proclaimed that they’re more of a baggy t-shirt kind of gal. Sonya helped ease their worries, telling them that wearing latex is all about finding the right garment that suits their figure, especially one that makes them feel empowered.

The first woman tried on an alluring black and yellow two piece, featuring a fitted bodice and a high waisted pencil skirt. One part Pikachu, one part ultra chic, the look on her face was priceless as she happily took a glance in the mirror. “It’s like I’m about to perform at a Katy Perry concert… as Katy Perry,” she said with a laugh. “Actually, I feel so naked, but I look less naked than I feel.”

The next emitted gleeful cheers as she saw herself in a form-fitting black latex catsuit, remarking that she looks like an endangered species. Another woman felt totally empowered, wanting to go out and dance, fight crime and conquer the world with her bold latex outfit.

The final woman tried on a baby pink dress, complete with a voluminous capelet. Although it was something she would never pick out on her own, she admitted that she was reminded of Lady Gaga, and she eventually said she’s sold on it.

The women revealed that they were totally surprised at how much they loved it. Sonya said it’s normal to feel apprehensive about wearing latex, and she added that many women feel that they’ll look too exposed. However, when they actually tried it on, they said they felt like a superhero, and they wish they felt like this all the time.

Even though they were hesitant in the beginning, they realized that latex is actually really flattering, and one even remarked that she’s never liked herself more. We love the total #GirlBoss comments, with one saying that she felt like a mixture of Tank Girl, Catwoman and a bad ass biker, while another said she felt like she needs to stop apologizing to everyone.

It’s always good to try something new for a change, and these women certainly prove that trying on latex can be an unexpected experience.
