I went to amour for the first time last month but it was a normal night. Will look at giving this a go if the timing of my travels work

Townhouse on the Wirral offer an array of fetish events. 1st and 3rd Friday are the Radical Desire fetish nights and some have a theme. They also have days/nights to celebrate particular fetishes. Deffo worth a look at the calendar on their website. You can also sleep over at the venue for some events.

Yes I went to TH in November and loved it but it was a night the dungeon was closed. They kindly showed me it though and I plan to attend one of their kink events this year.

Of all the UK clubs I see TH and _tasia both being the best at providing great events for the kink crowd

Are there any that don't insist on the "all-black or fetish wear" rule? I refuse to wear either.

For a scene that supposedly prides itself on people being free to express themselvessel how they wish, that's rather hypocritical.

If you use your imagination (if you have one) then there are very easy ways to get around the "hypocritical" all black or fetishwear rules that most fetish nights have......

Birkenhead/Liverpool

We relaxed our dress code up until about a year ago and allowed people to attend in what they wished as an experiment and everybody bar one or two, still attended in all dark clothing/fetishwear/alternative wear. What we find is that true fetishists actually want to dress in a certain way as this is part of their experience of attending such an event. Those who dressed in nilla wear felt a little out of place as 99% had chosen the fetish dresscode and this affected their night. So even without us enforcing it, the punters made their own decision. So we went back to the original dress code and it works well.

Most guys who don't want to wear fetish wear, just arrive in dark trousers and shirt/TShirt xx

I don't see it as hypocritical, just a filter for those who can't be bothered. You make an effort in dressing to impress on normal nights so I'm sure you can get in.

I believe there's a fetish party, a one off at Radlett this Saturday. I haven't seen much information about it though. I do believe that singles and couples are welcome.

I second the townhouse events, the array of equipment and then specialised events are the best around for sure

In London you have Anti-Christ Torture Garden which are great crossover events. Decadence And Subversion are smaller events and have great reputations.

I love O&I at Eureaka's but have always give as part of a group. And tried Twisted at VA a couple if weeks ago and was really impressed

My favourites are Liberty Elite and Townhouse International. Also enjoyed Playspace (Camberley), MARS and Xstasia. They all have their own different flavours and reasons why I like them.

It doesn't only filter out those who can't be bothered. I have no problem with making an effort in my appearance (subject to limitations imposed by nature). What I object to is being required to wear what's basically a uniform before being allowed through the door.

Much the same as I'd wear to a regular club night, smart clothes, polished shoes etc. Kink is about who you are and what you do, not how you dress.

Partners, Bury has the "Kage" every last Sunday of month and there is Townhouse which is very good for fetish/BDSM.

If anyone wishes to make a further step there is "Unleashed" this year @ the Scala in London 3rd June ... but not for all !

It's not a uniform though is it? At every kink event I've ever been to there a huge range of outfits and styles. The minimum requirement is no street wear, that leaves plenty of options.

I hadn't heard about that, I've long said that Scala would make a great venue for a fet event.

No, the minimum requirement at every event I've seen listed since HDZ went fetishwear-only is all black or specific fetishwear. Now, perhaps I'm being too stringent in my interpretation of what that means, but every description I've seen of what constitutes fetishwear has revolved around some combination of rubber, PVC, leather and latex, none of which I would be physically (or psychologically) comfortable wearing.

Then the so-called dress code is so lax as to be meaningless and only serves to put people off attending the event.

Except that everything I've seen up to now has said that those options don't fall under the heading of fetishwear and would result in me getting turned away from an event.

Then what are you complaining about as you would be let in in smart dress. As long as it's a shirt and no jeans you would be fine.

The black dress code is for unsure people, nothing wrong in smart attire at all. Maybe you just should have asked rather than assume?

the fet events x2 Saturday afternoons per month at Quest are very well attended, friendly, excellent soundtrack and very very kinky happenings! The dress code is very broad - wear dark or smart or make an effort in some way (no scruffy jeans or sportswear).

If a dress code requirement says "all black or fetish ware only", that's what I take it to mean. That's not an assumption, it's taking an outright statement of policy at face value. Why would I question it?

If a dress code requirement says "all black or fetish ware only", that's what I take it to mean. That's not an assumption, it's taking an outright statement of policy at face value. Why would I question it?"

Why is all black such an issue?

Much the same as I'd wear to a regular club night, smart clothes, polished shoes etc. Kink is about who you are and what you do, not how you dress.

Because I don't like it, I don't look good in it (so far as I look good in anything) and for personal reasons it reminds of some things I'd rather not be reminded of, which are no one else's business.

Most of the people who run events are nice people and want attract people to their Events.

Possibly if you approach them and explain your reasons they may be able to make an exception?

As Andy Kinky said, I would contact your chosen venue directly and explain your situation. Most organisers try to be inclusive and I am sure there would be room for negotiation or some alternatives that could be considered? It's worth a try rather than ruling out attendance all together? xx

Exactly well said from both of you. We had a gent that prefers suits and he was welcome in with no issues. All you need to do is ask. Everyone's kink/Fetish dress is different so if you unsure just ask. As has been said most clubs will happily accommodate someone's kink if they ask.

"Following the chakalaka thread in trying new clubs, I'm interested in trying new bdsm clubs, events and parties. What's your favourites? Where do you recommend to get your kink on?

Townhouse on the Wirral offer an array of fetish events. 1st and 3rd Friday are the Radical Desire fetish nights and some have a theme. They also have days/nights to celebrate particular fetishes. Deffo worth a look at the calendar on their website. You can also sleep over at the venue for some events.

Yes I went to TH in November and loved it but it was a night the dungeon was closed. They kindly showed me it though and I plan to attend one of their kink events this year.

Of all the UK clubs I see TH and _tasia both being the best at providing great events for the kink crowd "

Not been to Xtasia yet but I absolutely love the fet nights at Townhouse.

The equipment there is just outstanding and there's so much room to play.

I agree. We'd like to attend some fetish events but don't have any fetish wear and would like to go and see what people actually wear before investing - bit of a catch-22

Fetish can be anything to a certain degree,

Women

Fancy dress Alice in wonderland for example, furies, Uniforms, leather, pvc, latex, underwear, dress, collar or bondage wear

Men

Suit, Smart dress, latex, leather, pvc, uniforms, bondage underwear or all black if your stuck

Unsure as the venue

If you said to me two years ago I would be wearing fancy dress I would not have believed you.

I agree clothes are not a requirement for a kinky mind set. I have gone to Kestrels and done scenes nude.

However events and parties are not a scene, they are trying to create an atmosphere and an identity. I have found outfits can create a freedom and escape. Fetish is being out of the normal, smart suits smacks of 50 shades of ......

I have also found as others have mentioned fetish wear includes steam punk, Georgian, scottish kilts, roman kilts, victoriana, Edwardian, military, fairy tale characters, fantasy characters anything but boring normal.

The people I have had an issue with is the Subversion brand who have one rule for their mates and a different one for others.

In my experience tourists go for the line of least resistance in clothes not straying from their vanilla roots I prefer meeting kinky people for their liveliness and imagination. If I want smart suits I can go to a sales convention.

If you use your imagination (if you have one) then there are very easy ways to get around the "hypocritical" all black or fetishwear rules that most fetish nights have...... "

This is true and you miss out on some great events. try combat style trousers, belt with your floggers attached, tshirt, waist coat, lots of ways to tweek.

Quest in Leeds is excellent, as is Townhouse and Kage/Partners in Bury.

On the dress code thing. Firstly pretty much anything would be fetish - and on another site begining with F and L it is a frequent question for people who are attending for the first time so the best advice is to ask in advance

Totally agree with this, and as long as clean and tidy you'd normally get admission to our events whatever the dress code says. Some events are specific, ie naked sub nights for example, but most ask you to make an effort, that's all.

Unless it was a high protocol event I really would not want to go to a fetish night where the men were suited and booted like a wannabee Christian Grey and women in ordinary dresses.

It would be best then if the advertisement said smart wear and fetish wear then I would know not to attend.

I agree with the argument clothes don't dictate the kinkyness of the individual. However if I am going to an event I am going for atmosphere. As an example if an event was advertised as requiring formal evening wear for men and ballgowns for women and half the people have not made the effort, I would suggest that it would detract from the atmosphere of the event.

"

I don't know a club in the country that doesn't. Even TG. I'm guessing you've never actually approached the organiser of an event to ask them about their dress code then.

Just because you view fetish to mean latex and pvc doesn't mean that is what it is. It this sense it means something that is erotically charged and 'does it' for the people involved.

Clubs and events have a dress code to stop people walking in wearing jeans and a shirt with nothing to change into. I tend to play next to or totally naked, having someone who looks like they have walked into the club by accident is totally off putting and makes you feel at best uncomfortable and at worst totally on edge, not the best headspace be you top or dom. it's about putting in some effort and not just looking like you're going down to your local Ritzy.

Personally I'm into steampunk, Victoriana and 50's. So my fet event clothing tends to lean that way, one of my ex's used to wear a suit (with a coloured or white shirt) another wore jean style smart trousers and a dark shirt, another a kilt and a top, none of them ever had a problem.

I've gone to clubs in smart dresses that I've worn out on nilla nights out, like I said. It's about putting some effort in.

Find an event your interested in, talk to the organiser. Believe me they are accommodating. I should know, I've spent the best part of 13 years running events.

Steampunk is fetish and you don't see much leather pvc or latex there! I have a friend who wears a fetish top and that's neither of them too. Maybe you're thinking too rigidly?

Since when is steampunk fetish? Could someone provide an actual definition of what does and doesn't count?"
i have often worn my steampunk stuff or hellbunny dresses. Seen guys in suits but with dark shirts.

I went to klub verboten and my male companion wore black trousers, leather Chelsea boots (or something like them), a casual leather jacket and a sort of string t shirt.

There were guys with suits on, etc

What I think they want to avoid is people coming to the venue as they do to any old social occasion. They want an environment where the most outrageous dresser can feel free and to do that you need to enforce a base line minimum.
