Fetish fashion is trending: Would you wear the controversial trend?
Things are about to get a little spicy: are you ready? Just as the corset trend made its rounds on TikTok and among street style stars, its X-rated cousins: latex mini dresses, bondage outfits, pleather bodysuits, and dog collars, are finding their way into the sartorial mainstream.
Whether we can credit “Uncut Gems” “muse” Julia Fox and her (un)fortunate foray into meme culture, Dua Lipa and her iconic 2022 Grammy’s Versace look, or a general undoing of the pandemic’s uniform of sweatshirts and leggings, fetish fashion is in, and by the looks of things, it’s here to stay.
