Fishnet Corset
The corset was originally designed to shape the upper body by incorporating lacing and boning (the rigid frame of the garment) to create the desired aesthetic effect of a curvier figure. Many modern corsets are visually similar to traditional corsets, but the function of shaping of the body has taken a back seat to fashion. Following along this trend is a minimalist approach to corsetry where the frame becomes the primary feature and the fabric is secondary. This creates what is essentially a see-through corset. In this case we’ll take a look at one specific example, the fishnet corset.
In a traditional corset, the boning creates and supports the shape of the corset (and subsequently the shape of the wearer). The fabric of the corset is typically flexible and stretched tightly over the corset’s structure, with channels where boning is inserted. Because of its delicate nature, fishnet would not be a typical fabric selection for this type of treatment. That is why the fishnet corset is such a unique garment.
Fishnet Corset
The first thing you will notice about the fishnet corset is that the boning fully defines the garment. The curves in the boning, while reminiscent of a traditional corset, are soft, alluring and flattering to a wide variety of body types. They create a seductive and shapely contour that draws the eye from the top of the breasts all the way down to the thighs, complementing the natural curves of the breasts and hips. Within the frame are panels of soft and delicate fishnet material, offering teasing windows to the delicate skin beneath as well as providing a contrasting visual and physical texture. The fishnet corset is looser fitting than a traditional corset due to the nature of the fabric. The main support of the garment is in the frame, preventing the fishnet fabric from stretching too tightly across the skin as it would do in more typical fishnet garments, like stockings or tights.
The fishnet corset is a distinct and extraordinary garment that uses an iconic fashion tradition to create a bold new statement. As the nature of a corset is to support and enhance the natural shape of a woman, it is a garment that can be worn by women of all shapes and sizes. An excellent example is the Sophia Black Fishnet Corset Dress, which finishes with a delicate fishnet ruffle, or the Tilia Black Fishnet Corset with asymmetrical contours that further accentuate the natural bust shape.

Ruffle Dress
From the 15th century to the present, ruffles have been a distinctive element of fashion for both genders. From soft, subtle curves to voluminous flowing folds of fabric, ruffles mimic the gentle contours of the feminine shape, bringing a sense of beauty and romance. The ruffle dress is the perfect embodiment of all things feminine and achieves a whole new level of seduction in the context of fetish fashion.
The ruffle fashion trend touches on all levels of celebrity, from Michelle Obama to Fergie to Victoria Beckham along with designers such as Marc Jacobs and Christian Dior. Words like ‘frothy’ and ‘romantic’ were hotly tipped for ruffles in the 2010 fashion forecast. Another trend for this year is the style of layering ruffles with contrasting fabrics to create visually exciting textures. The ruffle dress can easily embrace all of these style tips, and more.
Ruffle Dress
A frequently asked question about the ruffle dress is where should the ruffles go? The answer is anywhere you like! Ruffles on the neck area or upper part of the body can draw attention to the face or décolletage, creating a delicate and beautiful frame. Loose ruffles on the sleeves, on the lower section of the dress or around the hemline will give the dress an airy, flowing quality, particularly when you are in motion. It’s not generally recommended to have ruffles solely around your midsection, as that can create an unusual shape depending on your body type. However, that’s not to say that it can’t be done, especially if it’s paired with a tight bodice. I think a tutu would safely fall into that category!
The ruffle dress is a versatile piece that should be in every woman’s closet. Ruffles are a persistent fashion trend that can be worn day or night. With the right kinds of fabrics the ruffle dress is a perfect outfit for a sexy night out. Take a look at the Charlise Short Black Ruffle Dress which combines outrageously sexy with feminine and romantic. Or for flirty and fun, the Celine Short Black Halterneck Tutu Dress has just the right amount of ruffles (and very little else) to make a lasting impression.

Low Neckline
Ah, the power of a well-presented low neckline! The perfect plunging neckline will send men’s (and some women’s) eyes south, putting an end to any further eye contact. Regardless of whether you’re a well endowed or less amply bosomed woman you can still make the most of your cleavage by wearing fetish clothing with a low neckline.
I think we’ve all seen some excessive, uncomfortable or downright odd-looking cleavage at one point or another. It’s important to remember that a well-designed garment with a low neckline will define and emphasize the presentation of the chest and upper portion of a woman’s breasts (the décolletage, in French) in the most flattering way possible. If you have a low-cut top or dress, make sure the neckline area is in proportion your body shape. If it’s too large, you’ll expose too much of your chest, minimizing the effect of great cleavage. And if it’s too small, all of your efforts at creating cleavage won’t be seen. The key is to make sure that the neckline’s size and shape work with your body.
Low Neckline
Once you’ve found the right low neckline for your body type, there are a number of ways to create great cleavage within that neckline. A push-up bra is a very simple solution. Or take an existing bra and twist the fabric between the cups or pull the back straps together with a safety pin or a piece of ribbon. There are also other breast enhancement products, like the Bring It Up that can actually lift the breasts into a new position. And of course there is always the quick and simple make-up solution: put a bit of bronzer between the breasts to create a natural-looking cleavage shadow.
As you can see, there are a number of ways that you can use a low neckline to your advantage. These tips are universal and go beyond fetish fashion. But as we’re here to talk about the fetish side of things, think about how great you would look using these low neckline tips while wearing one of these outfits: the Maeva Short Black Halter Dress, the Malaury Short Black V-Neck Dress, or the Ulla Short Black Short-Sleeved Dress. All of these options are designed to make the most of a sexy low neckline.

Diamante Thong
Thongs have come a long way. What started out as a loincloth for protecting tribal men’s bits has now developed into one of the most talked-about items of clothing today. Taking that conversation a new level is the diamante thong, putting bling in places it’s never been before.
A thong is already racy enough, so you may be wondering why we should put sparkly bits on it to make it stand out even more. Why not, we say! The trend for thong ornamentation actually started in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s, when people started deliberately exposing their thongs over the top of their trousers. Given our current culture of bling, the diamante thong is simply the natural evolution of this popular fashion item.
Diamante Thong
Diamantes can accentuate a traditional thong in a number of different ways. They can be placed at the rear of the thong at the connecting point of the pouch and the waistband, drawing attention to the delicate area at the top of the buttocks. Or, they can be placed all the way along the waistband, creating a sparkly accent when worn alone or when peeking out over a sexy skirt or trousers. Be sure to avoid any ornamental designs that place the diamantes too close to any sensitive areas, such as along the fabric that sits between the buttocks.
The diamante thong is the next level of sexy for a garment that already turns heads. Adding a bit of sparkle to a thong can bring a bit of fun and excitement to your outfit whether it’s on display or cheekily hidden under other clothing. Want to see for yourself? Take a look at the Black Heart G-String, the Charlotte Black G-String and the Coralie Black Thong – all perfect examples of bling ‘down under’!

Micro Thong
If you’re the kind of person that feels too covered up when you’re wearing a thong, the micro thong may be the perfect item of clothing for you. It’s tiny, it’s sassy, and it’s super-sexy! With just enough material to cover the bare essentials, micro thongs are becoming more and more popular both as swimwear (no tan lines!) and intimate lingerie.
So what’s the point of wearing what’s known in Brazil as fio dental (dental floss) on the lower half of your body? To put it simply, it’s all about turning heads if you’re daring enough to try it. A micro thong combined with an open-backed skirt or matching suspenders can literally stop traffic. Your admirers might smile when they see you coming, but their jaws will definitely hit the floor when they see you going. That, my friends, is the power of the micro thong.
Micro Thong
Now we’re not going to lie and say that a micro thong is for everyone. But we don’t mean body types, just confidence levels! A well-fitting micro thong can accentuate a wider range of body types than most people realize. Finding the right size can be tricky, but remember to start with a size slightly larger than your usual knickers and work from there. And even if you decide to hide your micro thong under the rest of a fabulous outfit, think of how sexy you’ll feel. And don’t forget about the surprise your partner will have after you’ve taken off everything else!
The micro thong definitely makes a bold statement of sexiness, sassiness and absolute confidence. Try one on in the privacy of your bedroom and we’ll bet you’ll notice an immediate change in attitude. And if you’re daring enough to turn heads with a micro thong at your next fetish event, take a look at the Kayla Black PVC G-String With Bow by Patrice Catanzaro.
