Fetish clothing
Fetish clothing includes any type of
clothing and
clothing material which is commonly
fetishized.It is possible for almost any item of clothing to be the subject of a fetish.Commonly fetishized types of clothing include
underwear,
skin-tight clothing, and
footwear such as
ballet boots and
pony boots.
Commonly fetishized materials include
leather,
fur,
satin,
rubber,
spandex,
fishnet,
chainmail and fabrics made from
plastics such as
polyvinyl chloride (PVC, vinyl),
polyurethane (PU) and
polyamide.The
uniforms associated with certain
occupations are frequently fetishized; for example,
nurse,
maid,
schoolgirl,
law enforcement officer (particularly motorcycle patrol) and
military officer. It is possible to buy uniforms made out of fetish materials rather than regular fabric.
Note that these materials are also commonly used in functional clothing, and that clothes made of these materials are not necessarily fetishistic in nature. However, this has also led to fetishization of functional clothing such as
riding boots,
diving suits and industrial clothing such as
hazmat suits and
gas masks.
Common items of fetish clothing include
catsuits,
corsets,
gloves,
thigh-high boots and
stockings,
collars,
bondage masks and
hoods, and
leather body harnesses. Fetish clothing is often worn within the
fetish subculture, frequently as a way of keeping curious non-fetishists out of
fetish clubs.
Fetish fashion models such as
Midori and
Dita von Teese specialize in this type of attire.
Many elements from fetish clothing have been adopted by mainstream
fashion designers.
