I remember Marc Jacobs using latex for the skirts and some tops at Louis Vuitton spring 2003.

Pucci the latex/pvc ones do make a funny noise.
I have vivid recollection (from last time around they were in fashion..back in 1995, Janet Jackson wore a tight tight pair in the music video Scream that trickered me to buy a pair) of it as well as of the smell once I pulled the darn things of me..
Your body can't breath through latex/pvc which means that moisture from your skin cannot evaporate nor any waste products that your skin would under normal circumstances sweat out.
Despite not smoking.. I remember coming home after clubbing and taking the latex pants of and smelling something that reminded me of sour cigarettes.
All the same.. they do look really great they way they are styled in the pictures posted.. and far less rauncy then back in 1995... Now..where did I put them..?

Leather pants and latex are perfect for pairing with the Pleaser boots I spotting in Bazaar a time ago. In fact, one could wear the latex stockings that W credited to House of Harlot in a couple of their recent editorials... (They're 65 GB pounds, if anyone's interested.) Perhaps this is for a more general thread (Fetish f/w 06?), but I can clearly recall the instances I've seen fetish shops make the listings for such magazines. I know Felipe Oliveira Baptista used Pleasers (or a similar brand) in his latest show, as well. And Vogue ran an article that spotlighted leather leggings, from designer Elise Øverland, but which were worn by the author to the release of Dita von Teese's Burlesque/Fetish and the Art of the Teese.

I obviously lack imagination, because it often takes a well-styled photoshoot to inspire my fetishistic side. Nonetheless, here you have a handful of my preferred interpretations and/or interpreters:

(Dita from house-of-harlot.com, Natalia Vodianova by Craig McDean scanned by Luxx, Elise Overland with Hope Atherton from style.com)

I don't know how relevant this is... :
