Latex Midi Dress in Scarlet £350, wolfandbadger.com

I, personally, love myself a bit of latex, worn like a second skin showing off every curve. Latex can be a great alternative to leather, so why not rock up to a Valentine’s date in this show-stopping number by Elissa Poppy?

Specialising in latex, a sustainable and biodegradable material, EP strives to explore the limits of creativity in high fashion underwear and outerwear. Every garment is handmade to order with love by skilled artisans in the UK. Not surprisingly, EP’s designs have been worn and featured by world-renowned musicians, celebrities, artists and publications.

This particular item is such a beautifully sculpted Midi Dress, featuring a scooped neckline and a low cut backless fit. Its panelled design is tailored to the contours of your body for the ultimate fit, ending just below the knee. The back split, which is reinforced with beautifully subtle cotton taping, will allow anyone who wears it to walk with ease, providing the highest comfort for long-term wear.

It is an added bonus that the latex used in each product is made from pure natural latex, direct from a rubber tree, which is free from silicones and other additives. EP latex is farmed sustainably, is biodegradable and most colours are veganfriendly, so do remember to check when purchasing.
