Clothing question..Latex body suit
I know it be near impossible and awkward to get a doll into.. but would this be at all manageable?

Slid into with baby powder and done up the back?
I know black is discouraged in texiles, but would this be ok?

Re: Clothing question..Latex body suit
Welcome to TDF!
I like to dress my Svetlana in black shiny catsuits too.
I see two problems with the latex suit in your link.
- First is the material. Latex. I love it and would dress my doll in rubber if it was easily manageable. But the material will stick to the TPE skin. You will have to force the doll into it which will most probably cause damage. I would only try this on an old doll but not on a brand new one. A doll is not very cooperative while dressing! I can't speak about staining or compatibility between latex and TPE but there might be issues as well.
- Second problem is the size! If you buy your latex dress as is, even in XS, it won't fit to the WM140. Believe me! Latex don't stretch as much as Spandex so it won't fit nearly as tightly as on the model in your link. The solution would be to buy a custom made outfit. This will make it 3 or 4 times more expensive. If you do this, make sure to place zippers everywhere. Your doll will look like Michelle Peiffer in her Catwoman costume but this is not a bad thing if you ask me!
If you dress your doll in a black catsuit dress, latex or spandex, make sure she wears a full body suit like this one:

Re: Clothing question..Latex body suit
I did think as much, just making sure, as much as i like latex i see problems down the line.
Have you any suggestions.. to material (or links even) to cat suit/wet look style outfits for a 140wm? Im thinking now an outfit free of sleeves and leggings for ease of access but still getting the look.
Im wary now of buying anything black.. due to staining.. but want to get away with something.. 'shinny'
Thanks for the body suit link,i do need one of those.A few weeks ago before discovering the staining issue i ordered a cute black uniform.. which will probably need a few washes AND this body suit ..to be safe.
Anyway, plenty of outfits and styles to explore in the meantime.
Great picture! i see your aesthetic is in dressing, and making things look visually stunning..not just a fck doll! I too want the VERY best
Re: Clothing question..Latex body suit
Look into latexcatfish.com they can custom make the latex catsuit to size, I would measure the doll and add an inch to every number and make sure you also have them do chlorination witch makes the latex 100 times smoother but less shine. A back zipper from back of the neck to top of the crotch would help with dressing. I have never put one on a doll YET but I do know for sure the silicone will effect the latex, only have it on for play time.Pyewacket wrote:Great, thanks Von Rubber..

Re: Clothing question..Latex body suit
Just for clarification, the above dress Svetlana wears is not made of Latex but vinyl stretch.Pyewacket wrote:But still, it would look AWESOME to one day succeed in dressing her in Latex as VonRubber did!

Re: Clothing question..Latex body suit
pyewacket, the link you posted was actually a synthetic latex and I didn't even know that existed, pretty cool...
Anyways, I did a little experiment with a couple of small pieces of black latex on a small silicone toy and tpe toy for 24 hours and the results are that the latex didn't bleed off and stain the toys but the latex started to break down and now looks like it got thinner and kind of like a balloon that was once filled up, stretched and deflated lol.
this will not stop me from dressing my 167 into latex when she arriveds, I'm just only gonna keep it on for play time.
Re: Clothing question..Latex body suit
I got a vinyl stretch body slip, but it was slightly too big..not stretchy for a 140cm
The challenge in latex will be to size up the doll first and get things custom made, and not try to wing it.
Still your work Von Rubber is an inspiration..
