Condoms (and Other Rubber),as A Fashion Statement

[GothicRavenGoddess (3)]

Okay, that thread about the duct tape got me thinking about clothing made out of weird things, and I remembered that my friend had a really cool picture in his myspace. So what did I do? I Googled it, and this is what I found:

Wedding Gown Madefrom 12,500 Condoms

I don't know how many comdoms were used in the rest of these. But, they all were made for an AIDS benifit thing.

The articles that I found some of these in didn't say anything about the AIDS benifit that was talked about with the other dreses.

"It's a dress made from a rubber raft and the plugs were strategically placed on the nipples. The bottom of the dress was accentuated by the inflated rim of the raft which bounced and swayed as she sashayed."-From a Blog by Hilary Pfeifer

Dude, some of those could even pass as REAL dresses. That cream colored one the asian girl is wearing, for instance, if that came in black and/or red or some other color, that would be totally wearable. I mean FUCK I'd strut around in that at City Club, and with who-knows-what that's been all over that club it would enhance my personal safety therefore serving TWO purposes! GENIUS! Thirdly, the fact that it goes toward a benefit in support of defeating the scariest monster in the world, HIV, deserves another couple of points. Cool idea

wow.

they certainly are pretty.

[Marmee_Noir]

Wow some of those are gorgeous..

Hmmmmm wonder how many condoms it would take to make a mini- skirt! *ponders*

[n0Mad]

Those are awesome! I have a love/fascination with condoms anyway and those dresses just really turn me on.

[GothicRavenGoddess (3)]

well.... oh hell, i don't know what to say, except: you have fun w/ that!

[LadyKay]

Those are way cool!

It's strange...they're somehow very alluring...I exected this to be a funny/omfg what are people doing now thread...but suprisingly yeah some of those seem wearable and really unless you know what it's made of it would take people a minute to realize it's all made of condoms...I like the dresses they're very pretty...

Yes...so very uhmm latex. Kinda goes along with the whole cyber-goth or fetish lifestyle. Hmmm I wish we had a way of contacting the Bondage Twins and see if we can have NEW full body latex suits made...out of condoms (for CC newbs, they're kind of our uhmmm....local mascots? Something like that). I mean they are married to each other, so it would be so fitting, ya know?

I guess it would depend on how mini is mini???

And of course there is the joke about being all dressed up and ready to f***. Would make an interesting striptease, 1 condom at a time. Damn, I need a social life if I have time to think about stuff like this.

wow.. those are hot.. they missed out on those..black condoms.. mm.. imagine an outfit made out of those..

come to think about it, these had to be WAY fucking expensive to make.. condoms are not cheap.

Of course..safe sex is priceless.. hehe

well, considerring that most were made for an AIDS benefit, i think that the condoms were donated. If not, those are well known designers, so i don't think that any condom company would have a problem donating to their designs.

Who knows... anyways.... i think that I'm going to design a dress, and see if i can't get some black condoms from the health clinic... lol

[n0Mad]

and see if i can't get some black condoms from the health clinic... lol

I got a whole bag of them of the intarweb a while back. My g/f broke up with me in October though so since I have nobody to use them with , I suppose you could have a handful or two.

[GothicRavenGoddess (3)]

[n0Mad]

black condoms are too thixk to have sex w/ tho

[Winter Steele]

Umm.. I should have clarified, but I was more thinking about home construction .. a box of 12 condoms is like 10 bux.. you would need a whole ass load of those just to make a decent enough looking skirt, let alone a whole dress.

Oh wow, you really need to discover the area by the pharmacy at Meijer. No joke. A 12-pack of condoms is only $6-7 there.

Does Meijer have those black ones? hmm.. *goes shopping to find out*

A little over confident, aren't we? and when I say "we" I mean you.

Some of those do look cool in the pictures, but I still get the feeling it would look a bit tacky up close. Plus you'd have to walk around smelling like condoms all night.

Aww! But who doesn't love that new condom smell?

[Der Nister]

And I thought that by wearing a condom I was just being cautious.

[GothicRavenGoddess (3)]

uhm, if you notice, a lot of those are painted, or died. so yeah... they are treated to get all the lubricant off of them, and come to think about it, minus the lubricant, they just smell like rubber... like latex, so it would be as if you were wearing any other article of clothing that is made of latex.

Yes you are, you're being cautious to not look unfashionable.
