Latex and couture go together like leopard pattern prints and the Queen Elizabeth: highly doubtful however humanly somewhat feasible.
When thinking of latex, I automatically think of Atsuko Kudo just like a trout pout reminds me of Lisa Rinna. Her designs are so bizaro and kinky that you can’t imagine the creator behind the line waking up at 5am on a Sunday morning to go jogging and then sing at her church’s choir. Matter of fact, if that’s your thing, I’ll just leave it at that. Ahem! SO ,
In business for 10 years, Atsuko opened her boutique in London 5 years ago, and cites the 1930′s and 40′s amongst her main inspirations. The 1930′s and rubber? Yep baby, just like Kim Jong Il, hookers, and uranium – rips it!
Specialized in printed latex, this designer gets credit for many many outrageous Lady Gaga outfits as well…
To see it to believe it, please take a look at the ambassador of latex couture, the Honorable, ballsy and visionary Atsuko Kudo:
Kate and Naomi for ID magazine:
Vogue Italy
the model Kelly Brook
the singular Lara Stone
my next Halloween costume
and the muse, the infamous, Lady GaGa
Love Love LOVE the pink skirt with the bra top! so rad and fierce!
so kids, remember to put your latex on.
