UK Fetish Awards takes a brave step towards equal fetish fashion world

 I recently got to know that UK Fetish Awards is taking place in 16.11.2022. I haven't been very aware of events abroad as I'm living in Finland which is quite well located far away from all the big fetish events.

Yeah, I know. You don't even know where Finland is...

Nevertheless, I'd love to see these big events around the world. It would be easier to live fetish fashion lifestyle more often and with other like-minded friends then. But maybe I'll have chances to visit these events in the future!

But let's get to the main topic. I was going through the information about the event and I noticed there are also few male candidates among all the female models. This really stunned me as I have always been criticizing fetish fashion world about unequality regarding modeling and showing almost only content about female models.

This is my thanks to UK Fetish Awards for accepting all genders among models!


I'm not even gay, but I'd still love to see more male models and fashion and inspiration for men. Sometimes I have even felt that the whole fetish fashion scene welcomes just women to be in the spotlights.

This time there's a really great exception! I noticed these two male models among the candidates:

  • Nomenloony
  • Fetish model candidate

  • Rockin Rubber
  • Latex model candidate

These two gentlemen are the ones who I have seen earlier in Internet. I remember them from good and appropriate blog articles.

I also noticed few more male candidates. If I got it right there are 4+4 male models against 17+31 female models competing to get awarded in fetish model and latex model categories. This means there are 14% men in the candidates. We can still see the focus going to female models. But actually I'm really happy about the fact there are so many men among.

This brings me to conclusion that UK Fetish Awards has taken a brave step towards equality in the fetish fashion world. UK Fetish Awards isn't afraid to take male models among the candidates. To give more praise to the event I also noticed there is a category for fetish trans model. 

By this I want to send my thanks and give my appreciation to UK Fetish Awards event. Thank you for giving a chance for equal modeling in fetish fashion world despite the gender of the models. This is what I call forerunning.

Lastly, I have noticed UK fetish scene has given room for male models in general even earlier. It's not long since I wrote about UK latex fashion manufacturer Libidex. The company had turned their marketing to direction which shows more male models and even fashion designs for men. I wasn't surprised to see Libidex among the supporters of UK Fetish Awards.

Libidex already started to show more male models among female models lately. I welcome this trend gladly as then we can see also fashion made for men! (Screenshot from Libidex's website).


Nice work, UK! I look forward if I can visit your fetish events and latex fashion shops some day!


Regards,

Senshi from Finland

Review: Asuka plugsuit / Andromeda Latex

In the year 2016 I was lucky enough to get a slot from Andromeda Latex for commission of latex Asuka plugsuit. I was really anxious as I knew that this opportunity would be really rare but the costume wouldn't be cheap. I had always dreamed to get an Asuka plugsuit that would be perfect. Nothing like those poor ones around everywhere in cheap internet stores. I made a decision and asked for a commission. I got one. Asuka Langley Soryu meets Finland. Costume: Andromeda Latex. Model: Senshi. Photo: Tigrita. The system of Andromeda Latex is based on commissions and slots for them. People get a picture of manufacturer that is almost always booked full and rarely has any slots open. After all this is understandable because unique and high-quality costumes aren't anything like some mass-producted garments. Luckily sometimes one can notice an open slot that is announced on the website or social media channels. The commission and communicating are done with email. Thi

Being Asuka Langley Soryu in latex costume

I have noticed that most interesting thing in my photos and in my blog has been my Asuka Langley Soryu costume (by Andromeda Latex). Because I have felt that some people would like to see me doing only Asuka cosplay and posing in pictures with the costume I decided to write something about the costume. I also tell why I don't do only Asuka cosplay and why I do it quite rarely. I noticed that there hasn't been very much photos of the suit on my blog after my old review so I decided to put some photos here from the past years. I hope it covers some demand of seeing more about the suit as well as telling a bit more about experiences with it. I have cosplayed Asuka very rarely. It's not that I wouldn't like to do it but there are many reasons which I tell later on this article. General thoughts and some history of my Asuka costume Being Asuka feels fun. Well, I'm not a performer or actor so "being" sounds a bit too much. Let's just say that I love the look

Movies: Rubbers Ou Onna (Japan, 2010)

It was many years back when I found a mention about this movie on some website. There was a sho rt br iefing about the movie and it said the movie tells about a young woman who ha s a latex fetish . Of course I got interested about the movie and trie d to get i t in my hands as soon as possible. I had my prejudices regarding t he movie. Always when I had heard about a woman and latex clothing being in same movie it had been a fetish sex film or some short scene in a movie where some sexy bimbo wears PVC pants and makes i t excessive and a joke. I was very happy to find out that this movie wasn't a joke. It w as exactly what I had wished for a long time. Rubbers ou onna movie cover. Rubbers Ou Onna (also sometimes: "Rabâzu: Oou onna") is a japanese movie from year 2010. It's in japanese language. I didn't have an opportunity to watch the movie with subti tles or dub. Therefore my review is based on my own feelings and to things I saw in the movie. So
