Designer Heidi Patterson has been a friend of Skin Two for some time and we met up recently to talk about her new line of affordable and stylish basic latex…

“I’ve been a big fan of latex for many years now. I trained as a fashion designer and a visit to the studio of Danish label NPNG (No Pain No Gain) kindled my interest in latex fashion in 2003.”

“I began learning how to craft latex clothing while assisting NPNG, and have been perfecting my skills ever since through my new label, Essential Latex and a higher end line called Strange Lifeforms.”

“With Essential Latex, I offer a very basic range of well made latex at extremely reasonable prices, because I know how daunting it is to build a latex wardrobe from scratch, and how common it is to make ghastly mistakes in the beginning!”

“The line was conceived as it became more apparent that latex collectors were still at the mercy of unscrupulous eBay listings or potentially risky knock-offs. Essential Latex will flatter you and kickstart your wardrobe so you can add colour, accessories and other exciting pieces later on, as you learn what you like best in latex.”
