Latex Clothing within the Dating Scene

Latex is known around the world as a symbol of sexiness and an alternative lifestyle. Pure invites you to explore new and amazing ways of how people can express themselves through latex — casually or dressing for a special occasion. We partnered with Honour Clothing brands that can dress you up for a puretastic date — and here is what they told us about their tightly fitting mission.

Honour Clothing — what’s your brand background?

Honour Clothing was established in 1988. As a fashion label, we’ve been a designer and manufacturer of alternative materials. Our mission is to empower people to embrace individuality and their inner sexiness. We’ve been supplying clothing for the dating scene for quite a while now.

Latex for dating! Are you kidding?

Now don‘t get us wrong there is definitely a place for latex in that alternative category. A catsuit for example is such an amazing thing. It can portray an image of power yet also vulnerability. It seems a bit contradictory but latex is really what the wearer makes of it.

We’ve seen at Honour Clothing that one of most prominent areas latex is seen is in the dating scene. The amount of couples who used latex as something to strengthen their relationships is astounding. In our stores this is probably the most prominent demographic we see. This isn’t just for latex in the bedroom either. Couples come from all over and browse for latex garments such as you would see on many mainstream celebrities today such as Katy Perry and Kim Kardashian. They would go out on dates and events together dressed in latex and have the most wonderful experiences.

How will Latex improve my dating and sex life? (Yes, it will!)

The fact of the matter is, when speaking to Honour Clothing customers we found that those couples who have experimented with latex together seem to have a much closer bond. This seems to be due to the fact that when shopping or trying on latex together they felt like all their vulnerabilities had vanished as they explored what worked for them and what didn't. It made them feel more comfortable in their own skin and made them feel more open with their partner.

Other Honour Clothing customers have said the experience of browsing through these items (that can be quite intimidating at first due to any remaining stigma from previous decades) really brought them closer together as a couple. They felt less awkward and uncomfortable speaking honestly with each other about what they liked and didn’t like.

So it’s all about THAT Latex confidence I can gain once I am wearing it?

Our observations behind this is due to the nature of latex as a material. It's such a tight figure hugging material that really enhances the body's natural features. For example, when someone tries on a latex dress and see’s how their partner not only accepts them in it but is attracted to them in it as well, really boosts their confidence. In doing this we really believe latex clothing helps bring couples together.

How to communicate my interest in latex?

Now this sounds like a simple solution but just be upfront and honest. If nervous about this you don't have to do this on the first date. If you want to wait a couple dates to feel more comfortable with the person that's fine. However, you will be surprised how many latex lovers are out there and how many people will not only be accepting but will also be a fellow enthusiast. If you are new to latex and want to experiment with it or your partner does then give it a try. As they say you never know until you’ve tried it. It could open a whole new world for you and your dating partner. Communication is key here and it’s important to be sensitive to other people's interests.

How to widen my dating experience with latex?

You will be surprised how many people in the dating scene have bonded over latex. It’s a great hobby that opens the way to more open and honest communication. There are so many activities and events that couples could do together on a date. You can go to latex events and parties together, explore the latex scene, organize matching colours and coordinate outfits. This is a great way to bond in the dating scene and gives the opportunity to explore exciting new experiences you wouldn't have thought of. Best of all, the latex community is so welcoming and friendly that you're bound to have some fun and make new friends on the way.

Latex is also great to wear out on a normal date. There is nothing better to get the heart racing than some form fitting latex. It’s a great way to stand out and express yourself on a date and whilst also providing you the opportunity for a unique experience that will be a standout in your dating history. Latex is all about expressing confidence and embracing your natural figure. There is no better way to highlight these qualities than wearing some latex garments on a date. With the right luck this will help you find the right person for you.

Now let's not go into too much detail as acts in the bedroom are best left for the bedroom but latex is a great way to also spice up relationships. It seems to have reinvigorated peoples sex lives and brought something fresh to the bedroom. You would be surprised by how many people have a rubber fascination so why not give it a go?

Here are some quick tips that anyone new to latex should know

Try using some talc or dressing aid to help you get into the garment
Make sure you shine your garment up. There's no such thing as too much shine. You can just use some lube though we prefer actual latex shine.
Watch out for those sharp nails
You can love latex by yourself but when you have a partner to share it with its even more amazing
NEVER put it in the washing machine
DON'T put it on a metal or steel hanger
DON’T leave in a sunny or bright place
Watch out for any jewelry that could cause a tear when putting the garment on
