We are pretty much convinced that Atsuko Kudo has revolutionized the concept of luxury latex lingerie. For the first time, a label has turned our attention toward this type of product and has pretty much brought our idea of latex from out of the gutter and onto the runway. We're sure many of your agree. Granted, Atsuko Kudo definitely has a fetish appeal, but the designs are high-fashion and sophisticated. Such sophistication doesn't come cheap, as prices range from about $300 for a bra to about $2,000 for an applique flower bodysuit!
The item we're coveting is the pair of clear stockings (with the triple black band along the top)...they're $200 but we're guessing they don't run so it might be a good investment!
It's always interesting when a designer can take a concept and make it (relatively) mainstream. Suddenly you don't need to be a fetish model to want latex undies.
Has Atsuko Kudo changed your opinion of latex rubber lingerie?

Those pink heels in the first picture WOW
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I love the aesthetic here! The wild juxtaposition of such classic, even vintage shapes, with such a modern, fetish fabric creates something really special. In particular, I am head over heels for the dress and hat in photo five, such a sweet shape a colour!

ReplyDeleteKudo San has not changed my opinion of latex lingerie. I always had a favorable disposition :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with all the comments though, lovely to see the vintage silhouettes and couturier details on all of the lovely pieces.
Just how though, does one keep cool while looking so hot?
Cheerful stuff, thanks for sharing...
