I went to the second annual Seattle Fetish Ball last night.
+: The best outfits were a couple of Scottish-style military uniforms made of latex, complete with a shako and rubber sporran. The level of craft was amazing.
-: The new venue, the Showbox Sodo, had concrete floors and even less seating outside the "VIP" area than the old venue. I didn't have a VIP ticket. I made it not quite three hours in my Grand National boots, i.e. pony shoes.
+: I'm grateful not to be as crippled this morning as I expected.
+: Several vendors were there, including Dark Garden, makers of the Devil Girl corset (pictured in part here). Autumn was there. I finally got to show it to her on me in person. I would have loved to stay and chat, but she was super busy.
-: Dancer got hit with a migraine and therefore couldn't make it.
+: She gave her ticket to KC. Punch line: they wore their Grand Nationals. (They have the originals; I have the reissue. I'm told the latter are more comfortable.) KC introduced me to a Leather title holder because of course they did. I asked him if his boots were good for stomping people. He said yes.
?: It's just as well Dancer didn't try to drive us there because a baseball game was just letting out. That's right: kids in their baseball gear saw a bunch of freaks on leashes and/or in rubber clothes waiting in line to get in. Goddamn, I love living in a city.
-: Speaking of my ride there, it was a Tesla driven by a fellow who, judging by the spelling of his name, came from Ukraine. Yeah, I kept my mouth shut.
+: Merc regular A, who I didn't expect at a kink event, showed up. She just can't resist the clubbing, she said. I can relate.
-: Yeah, Temptress and her foul boyfriend were there, but I expected them.
+: I got to see of D of Christmas party fame. Like, she throws awesome parties on Christmas Eve. D is petite and I'm tall even in my socks. I was wearing heels that make me tower. I bent a lot to hear her over the loud but, it must be said, pretty good music.
+: The second best outfit after the Scottish ones was basically a suit in greenish yellow and electric blue. It was some of the best use of color I've ever seen in latex, and I wasn't alone in that assessment.
So did I have fun? Shyeah! Am I going next year? Yes, if I can. Am I springing for a VIP ticket? Also yes.
