The question now presents itself: Why does this suit or costume make me feel powerful? Well, why does a respectable man wear a suit? To show he works. Okay, then what? To show he works in a sophisticated workplace. Okay, go further. To show he makes money. Which means? He's well educated. Which says what? He has class. And that says what about his personality? He's confident and intelligent. And for a sub that means? He'd make a great dom. And there you go…

Every girl wants to be a part of the Pink Ladies. They’re stylish, cool and just a little bit sassy! Of course, not everyone can join this unique group of ladies, and poor innocent Sandy didn’t quite make the cut. She was far too much of a goodie-two-shoes to be rebellious like Rizzo, Jan, Marty and Frenchy. Big, bouncy hair was also in fashion during the 1950s. You can recreate a perfect pink lady look, by curling you hair (or if you want to be old school, then you can use rollers too. Put on some red lippy, then you’ll be down with the gang in no time! This is one of the best women’s 50s fancy dress ideas out there! I still hate dressing up. For me, suits represent conformity, dull professions, and money wasted. I hate how I feel and look in suits. The idea of any "suit" in general never appealed to me. When I started having sex, I embraced roleplay, I soon became curious about the different "costumes" kinksters wear, and the roles that come with them. The most obvious being traditional business suits. But "suit" material often varies - popular ones include rubber, latex, lycra, spandex, denim, nylon, sports gear and of course, leather. The concept of suits in relation to costumes connects to any role a kinkster assumes, like BDSM master, cowboys, doctors, police officers, and many others. It's the details that make a costume truly remarkable. Our Andrew Clark costume boasts a meticulously embroidered state championship wrestling patch on the left sleeve. Not only that, but the left front panel also showcases an appliqued chenille "S" and an embroidered name—Andy, so you can fully get into character. Official Fashion from the 80s Now, this isn't the formula for every individual. This is an assumption, a general pathway of thinking. But the real reason he wears a suit is because society expects that of him. It's the rules inherited from prior generations. Sophisticated clothing has always drawn a sharp contrast between societal classes. Fashion choices lead to assumptions about any individual. Why do men who embrace the traditional BDSM scene wear leather? (That's a whole other article—dissertation in it of itself.) But leather is the inherited norm. I don't think a sub or slave would take a traditional master seriously if say, he's wearing a rubber suit—and this is not to offend anyone with a rubber fetish, but societal norms, even in kink, tell us that leather commands respect. So, doms and masters looking to establish themselves as such may not personally have a leather fetish, but don leather anyway to assume the established role. The power source is not rooted in the leather per se or a leather fetish, but the inherited aesthetic. It provides a sense of belonging, a kink nametag, if you will.

Why can't the costume we wear in kink and the aesthetic we give-off accomplish influencing our real life for the better? When you look good, you feel good. Yes. But savor the rush you get from putting on that suit or costume. And in real life, even though you're not physically wearing it, give yourself permission to exalt the same affect. Let our kink aesthetics teach us about our real-life aesthetics. In role play, it's common for costumes to complement one another, that they should and do exist in the same world. In the traditional BDSM scene, masters typically wear a leather suit and slaves wear something complementary to that, but with specific accessories to signify he is the slave, like a collar, for instance. Sometimes, the costumes are different to serve the dynamic. For example, in the doctor/patient scenario, it's not customary for the patient to be dressed as a doctor too. To many, if the costumes or suits are similar or different doesn't matter, provided they make sense for the scenario. For me, I find the contradiction of aesthetics erotic; the competing energies is stimulating. And it all comes down to the power each aesthetic, costume, or suit emanates. Finally, is it all just a costume for the purpose of fantasy? For many, no. For masters and slaves who enjoy such a dynamic as a lifestyle, the power from certain suits and costumes is lived and experienced nearly twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Anyway, my point is, the power one gets from their suit of choice mainly is experienced when one is in a kink scene. But power can be split two ways: the sexual way and the self-confidence way. In kink, we respect the power that emanates from the costume. In real life, seeing a sexy cowboy or leather dom doesn't always affect the same response. However, the self-confidence rooted in the power we get from dressing a certain way in kink shouldn't only exist in kink. Admittedly, this is wishful thinking on my end; the "costume" we wear to assume a role in kink, shouldn't only positively affect us in our kink life. What we do during play is an escape from real life, yes. And engaging in certain BDSM-related acts can positively influence our everyday lives - like how to accept things we cannot control. It wasn't until I entered the world of kink that I realized that while I may not fancy certain suits on myself, fetishizing the suit/costume on other men excited me more than I predicted. Soon after that, a concrete fetish formed, one that doesn't have a name. I call it… Wait, are we just talking modern zombies here? Because there are many more styles to cover than that! It used to be that undead stories focused on zombies crawling out of their graves, mindlessly searching for flesh. If you want to dress up as the classic undead, choosing a zombie costume like the "Worm Wishes from the Grave" look is a great idea. Unlike some of the other zombie costumes in our selection, this costume shows a zombie in a late stage of disrepair. It's face is rotting away and worms are falling out. The clothes are tattered as if the zombie has spent the better part of a year under the ground. While this undead look is super scary for kids, it also avoids some of the gore popular in some of these zombie costumes!

While drafting this article, I was inspired to take the idea of "costume" and "suit" and "aesthetic" forward. My regular everyday clothes are not different to how I like to dress during play, but often the suits kinksters wear are not the outfits they portray to the real world. Generally, one doesn't see one walking around donning a latex suit. So, when it's finally time to play, donning the specific suit, which normally isn't excepted or "approvable" attire in everyday public life, presents a thrill like no other. First the suspense builds up waiting to put on the suit, then the erotic rush from wearing it brings about a kind of euphoria.
