For as long as there has been dress, there has been states of undress \u2013 and people willing to use it tactically. Just look at how sex splattered across the AW26 runways. Nipples were proclaimed the accessory du jour at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/alexander-mcqueen\"><span>McQueen<\/span><\/a><span>, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/mugler\"><span>Mugler<\/span><\/a><span>, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/tom-ford\"><span>Tom Ford<\/span><\/a><span>.

Underwear was outerwear at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/vivienne-westwood\"><span>Vivienne Westwood<\/span><\/a><span>, where garter belts and fishnets adorned male and female models alike. And this awards season, the naked dress has made its way back to the red carpet, led by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/chappell-roan\"><span>Chappell Roan<\/span><\/a><span> and her <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/beauty\/article\/69599\/1\/meet-jenny-collins-the-tattooist-behind-chappell-roans-grammy-look\"><span>headline-making Mugler nipple dress<\/span><\/a><span> at the Grammys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>But while we know that designers has always taken inspo from our dirty desires, the literal <\/span><em><span>tools<\/span><\/em><span> used to enhance pleasure and provide orgasms are increasingly sliding into the fashion world. Back in 2022, then-creative director <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/alessandro-michele\"><span>Alessandro Michele<\/span><\/a><span> featured butt plug necklaces on the Gucci runway. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/diesel\"><span>Diesel<\/span><\/a><span> used a murano buttplug for its SS23 show invite, and this year displayed a series of vibrators, made in collab with Lelo, in its AW26 showspace.

Sex toys as clothes and vice versa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Crave was the first brand to create \u2018pleasure jewellery\u2019 with its Vesper necklace in 2014, and this year \u00a0collabed with feminist erotic filmmaker Erika Lust on a wearable vibrator. \u201cPleasure jewellery makes people feel a certain way when you start to wear it,\u201d explains founder Ti Chang, who has since expanded the range to include rings and handcuff bracelets. \u201cThese are objects that are designed to be left out in the open \u2013 not disguising pleasure, but celebrating it.\u201d Much like wearing your favourite label, more subtle wearable sex toys, like Crave\u2019s Vesper necklace or Unbound\u2019s Flick ring, are a way of communicating with others in the know, says Chang. \u201cPeople who wear this out strike up conversations with people they otherwise wouldn\u2019t have,\u201d adds Chang. \u201cThat\u2019s one of the keys to removing stigma and shame from pleasure: we have to be able to talk about it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"inline-img expandable dev-view-hide\" data-img=\"c9c48ad2-8ebd-488b-8d8e-b412013585f1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/images-prod.dazeddigital.com\/2000\/azure\/dazed-prod\/1440\/2\/1442080.jpeg\" data-img-aspect-ratio-type=\"portrait\" data-img-aspect-ratio=\"0.67\"><span class=\"has-css-custom-props image-container\" data-aspect-ratio-type=\"portrait\"><span class=\"preserve-aspect-ratio\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Jean Paul Gaultier \u2018Suck\u2019 t-shirt\" class=\"img\" height=\"3000\" src=\"https:\/\/images-prod.dazeddigital.com\/786\/azure\/dazed-prod\/1440\/2\/1442080.jpeg\" width=\"2016\"><\/span><\/span><figcaption class=\"img-caption\"><span class=\"caption\">Jean Paul Gaultier <span class=\"nowrap\">\u2018Suck\u2019 t-shirt<\/span><\/span><span class=\"credit\">Courtesy of Jean <span class=\"nowrap\">Paul Gaultier<\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"raw-html\">\n<p><span>Who\u2019s involved in these discussions is also changing. Historically, women and queer people have led the charge to change attitudes about sexual expression, in an attempt to reclaim their sexuality in a world where male pleasure takes precedence. But men are now getting in on the fun, too. \u201cLots of my male friends wear Vesper,\u201d says Lust. \u201cIt\u2019s neutral, and they can use it to signal they\u2019re a modern man who knows about sex toys.\u201d Or rather, that they care about their partner\u2019s pleasure. Considering Gen Z men have been seduced by the rise of conservatism, and are the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/life-culture\/article\/64543\/1\/breaking-gen-z-men-still-dont-know-how-to-find-the-clitoris-sex\">least likely<\/a> of all generations to be able to label the clit, wearable sex toys can help make sex more accessible, whether they\u2019re actually used or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>And while sex tech and runway styles can come with a high price tag, you don\u2019t need to break the bank to show you\u2019re DTF through your style, as Gustafsson clarifies. \u201cA lot of this comes from ballroom culture and very scrappy beginnings,\u201d she says. \u201cThe fashion created in the basements of dungeons, where dominatrixes fasten stuff they bought at Home Depot onto a leather vest, eventually makes it to the big fashion houses and then it trickles down to the high street. In that sense, there\u2019s always going to be a way for you to express your sexuality.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span>\u201cWhen you see society becoming more conservative and aggressive, people working in fashion and art want to be a reaction on the other side\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>It\u2019s also no coincidence that wearable sex toys are steadily gaining popularity now. With a wave of conservatism crashing across the world in the last few years, sex is increasingly under attack by politicians and Big Tech alike. Thanks to algorithmic guidelines, you can barely say the word \u201csex\u201d on social media without getting shadowbanned. The surveillance state has gobbled up porn, too, with the UK\u2019s Online Safety Act making it all but impossible to access sites with even a hint of adult content unless you provide age ID to some anonymous third-party company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>With consensual adult sex being essentially outlawed in digital spaces \u2013 and under constant threat IRL \u2013 we\u2019re grappling for new ways to declare our horniness in public, so it makes sense that fashion would become more overtly libidinous. This sociopolitical shift could also explain why wearable sex toys are gaining traction. \u201cWhen you see society becoming more conservative and aggressive, people working in fashion and art want to be a reaction on the other side,\u201d says Lust.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"inline-img expandable dev-view-hide\" data-img=\"ec62524a-489a-4a0a-8304-b412013696d8\" data-src=\"https:\/\/images-prod.dazeddigital.com\/746\/azure\/dazed-prod\/1440\/2\/1442085.png\" data-img-aspect-ratio-type=\"portrait\" data-img-aspect-ratio=\"0.61\"><span class=\"has-css-custom-props image-container\" data-aspect-ratio-type=\"portrait\"><span class=\"preserve-aspect-ratio\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Crave\u2019s Tease ring\" class=\"img\" height=\"1218\" src=\"https:\/\/images-prod.dazeddigital.com\/746\/azure\/dazed-prod\/1440\/2\/1442085.png\" width=\"746\"><\/span><\/span><figcaption class=\"img-caption\"><span class=\"caption\">Crave\u2019s Tease ring<\/span><span class=\"credit\">Courtesy of Crave<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"raw-html\">\n<p><span>We know what you\u2019re thinking: aren\u2019t Gen Z <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/life-culture\/article\/66505\/1\/why-so-many-young-women-gen-z-are-opting-out-of-first-dates\"><span>famously celibate<\/span><\/a><span> these days? That\u2019s beside the point, explains Gustafsson. Wearable sex toys might be a performance of sexuality, but they don\u2019t \u201cnecessarily mean people are engaging in more sex\u201d, nor are they an invitation for anyone to sexualise the wearer. Instead, they are a clear sign that the tides of sexual empowerment are turning because, finally, women and queer people are in control of their sexuality. \u201cWearing sex toys is about taking up space,\u201d says Gustafsson. \u201cThese toys mean showing up in the world as an autonomous sexual being, and it\u2019s a brave thing to take up space sexually in a world that doesn\u2019t always celebrate that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>That\u2019s the thing: what gives us pleasure and our personal style are two things no one else can dictate, so it makes perfect sense the two are becoming more merged than ever. \u201cWe have this need to show the world who we are and what we believe in and that pleasure is important to us,\u201d says Lust. \u201cPleasure is more than something frivolous. Pleasure is resistance, taking care of ourselves, feeling good in our bodies, and being aware.\u201d What better way to embody that than through what you choose to wear? It\u2019s for you and for no one else\u2026 unless you want to share.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"newsletter-inline-last\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-small\">\n<div class=\"inner\">\n<h1 class=\"newsletter-title\">Escape the algorithm!

Sex toys as clothes and vice versa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Crave was the first brand to create \u2018pleasure jewellery\u2019 with its Vesper necklace in 2014, and this year \u00a0collabed with feminist erotic filmmaker Erika Lust on a wearable vibrator. \u201cPleasure jewellery makes people feel a certain way when you start to wear it,\u201d explains founder Ti Chang, who has since expanded the range to include rings and handcuff bracelets. \u201cThese are objects that are designed to be left out in the open \u2013 not disguising pleasure, but celebrating it.\u201d Much like wearing your favourite label, more subtle wearable sex toys, like Crave\u2019s Vesper necklace or Unbound\u2019s Flick ring, are a way of communicating with others in the know, says Chang. \u201cPeople who wear this out strike up conversations with people they otherwise wouldn\u2019t have,\u201d adds Chang. \u201cThat\u2019s one of the keys to removing stigma and shame from pleasure: we have to be able to talk about it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"inline-img expandable dev-view-hide\" data-img=\"c9c48ad2-8ebd-488b-8d8e-b412013585f1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/images-prod.dazeddigital.com\/2000\/azure\/dazed-prod\/1440\/2\/1442080.jpeg\" data-img-aspect-ratio-type=\"portrait\" data-img-aspect-ratio=\"0.67\"><span class=\"has-css-custom-props image-container\" data-aspect-ratio-type=\"portrait\"><span class=\"preserve-aspect-ratio\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Jean Paul Gaultier \u2018Suck\u2019 t-shirt\" class=\"img\" height=\"3000\" src=\"https:\/\/images-prod.dazeddigital.com\/786\/azure\/dazed-prod\/1440\/2\/1442080.jpeg\" width=\"2016\"><\/span><\/span><figcaption class=\"img-caption\"><span class=\"caption\">Jean Paul Gaultier <span class=\"nowrap\">\u2018Suck\u2019 t-shirt<\/span><\/span><span class=\"credit\">Courtesy of Jean <span class=\"nowrap\">Paul Gaultier<\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"raw-html\">\n<p><span>Who\u2019s involved in these discussions is also changing. Historically, women and queer people have led the charge to change attitudes about sexual expression, in an attempt to reclaim their sexuality in a world where male pleasure takes precedence. But men are now getting in on the fun, too. \u201cLots of my male friends wear Vesper,\u201d says Lust. \u201cIt\u2019s neutral, and they can use it to signal they\u2019re a modern man who knows about sex toys.\u201d Or rather, that they care about their partner\u2019s pleasure. Considering Gen Z men have been seduced by the rise of conservatism, and are the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/life-culture\/article\/64543\/1\/breaking-gen-z-men-still-dont-know-how-to-find-the-clitoris-sex\">least likely<\/a> of all generations to be able to label the clit, wearable sex toys can help make sex more accessible, whether they\u2019re actually used or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>And while sex tech and runway styles can come with a high price tag, you don\u2019t need to break the bank to show you\u2019re DTF through your style, as Gustafsson clarifies. \u201cA lot of this comes from ballroom culture and very scrappy beginnings,\u201d she says. \u201cThe fashion created in the basements of dungeons, where dominatrixes fasten stuff they bought at Home Depot onto a leather vest, eventually makes it to the big fashion houses and then it trickles down to the high street. In that sense, there\u2019s always going to be a way for you to express your sexuality.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span>\u201cWhen you see society becoming more conservative and aggressive, people working in fashion and art want to be a reaction on the other side\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>It\u2019s also no coincidence that wearable sex toys are steadily gaining popularity now. With a wave of conservatism crashing across the world in the last few years, sex is increasingly under attack by politicians and Big Tech alike. Thanks to algorithmic guidelines, you can barely say the word \u201csex\u201d on social media without getting shadowbanned. The surveillance state has gobbled up porn, too, with the UK\u2019s Online Safety Act making it all but impossible to access sites with even a hint of adult content unless you provide age ID to some anonymous third-party company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>With consensual adult sex being essentially outlawed in digital spaces \u2013 and under constant threat IRL \u2013 we\u2019re grappling for new ways to declare our horniness in public, so it makes sense that fashion would become more overtly libidinous. This sociopolitical shift could also explain why wearable sex toys are gaining traction. \u201cWhen you see society becoming more conservative and aggressive, people working in fashion and art want to be a reaction on the other side,\u201d says Lust.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"inline-img expandable dev-view-hide\" data-img=\"ec62524a-489a-4a0a-8304-b412013696d8\" data-src=\"https:\/\/images-prod.dazeddigital.com\/746\/azure\/dazed-prod\/1440\/2\/1442085.png\" data-img-aspect-ratio-type=\"portrait\" data-img-aspect-ratio=\"0.61\"><span class=\"has-css-custom-props image-container\" data-aspect-ratio-type=\"portrait\"><span class=\"preserve-aspect-ratio\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Crave\u2019s Tease ring\" class=\"img\" height=\"1218\" src=\"https:\/\/images-prod.dazeddigital.com\/746\/azure\/dazed-prod\/1440\/2\/1442085.png\" width=\"746\"><\/span><\/span><figcaption class=\"img-caption\"><span class=\"caption\">Crave\u2019s Tease ring<\/span><span class=\"credit\">Courtesy of Crave<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"raw-html\">\n<p><span>We know what you\u2019re thinking: aren\u2019t Gen Z <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazeddigital.com\/life-culture\/article\/66505\/1\/why-so-many-young-women-gen-z-are-opting-out-of-first-dates\"><span>famously celibate<\/span><\/a><span> these days? That\u2019s beside the point, explains Gustafsson. Wearable sex toys might be a performance of sexuality, but they don\u2019t \u201cnecessarily mean people are engaging in more sex\u201d, nor are they an invitation for anyone to sexualise the wearer. Instead, they are a clear sign that the tides of sexual empowerment are turning because, finally, women and queer people are in control of their sexuality. \u201cWearing sex toys is about taking up space,\u201d says Gustafsson. \u201cThese toys mean showing up in the world as an autonomous sexual being, and it\u2019s a brave thing to take up space sexually in a world that doesn\u2019t always celebrate that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>That\u2019s the thing: what gives us pleasure and our personal style are two things no one else can dictate, so it makes perfect sense the two are becoming more merged than ever. \u201cWe have this need to show the world who we are and what we believe in and that pleasure is important to us,\u201d says Lust. \u201cPleasure is more than something frivolous. Pleasure is resistance, taking care of ourselves, feeling good in our bodies, and being aware.\u201d What better way to embody that than through what you choose to wear? It\u2019s for you and for no one else\u2026 unless you want to share.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"newsletter-inline-last\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-small\">\n<div class=\"inner\">\n<h1 class=\"newsletter-title\">Escape the algorithm!
