AtomAge

AtomAge magazine (later AtomAge International magazine) was a fetish magazine published in Britain by the clothes designer John Sutcliffe in the 1970s as an offshoot of his AtomAge fetish clothing business. The first AtomAge clothing catalogue was published in 1965; The first issue of the magazine was published in 1972; AtomAge remained in business until at least 1977. The magazine specialized in leather, rubber fetishism and PVC fetishism, with a heavy emphasis on rubber and leather catsuits, cloaks, and gasmasks.

There were also special editions published under the names "Atomage Bondage" and "Atomage Rubberist".

Some of the clothes John Sutcliffe designed can be seen in the TV series The Avengers.
