So there's been a few discussions this weekend on IC about suit fetishes and similar. Since Tanken suggested that it seemed a 'conservative fetish' I wanted to just write to try and express how I feel.The obvious thing about a suit is the way it fits the body.
A good suit will flatter and enhance a body. Every man looks better in a well cut suit because it creates curves and lines in all the right places.The layers too simply invite you to peel them off. From stepping in the front door on a cold winters night and removing the overcoat and gloves, right down to the vest and shoes as you tumble into bed, there's a sexy striptease taking place.
Then there's the choice of how to remove it. It can be painstakingly slow to remove a suit. Tie, buttons, laces and braces, it all has to come off. But then again a good pair of scissors can remove enough in a few seconds to make for easy access.
Here comes the fetishistic bit though.
It's the fabrics. Women aren't the only ones that get all the good stuff! So many different fabrics, textures, warmths and feels in one single outfit. No women's outfit can compete.Thick, rough wool for the outer coat that wraps the gift. A opera scarf draped around the throat, hiding rough stubble and a muscular neck. Thin, silken wool for the suit that drapes beautifully over the body. Framing a mans features, showing his proportions perfectly. Sliding over a pair of buttocks, sculpting them before slipping down the legs. Smooth and warm to the touch. Plain or patterned with so much detail in the weave. A flash of coloured lining from silk inside the jacket, cool contrast to the wool to your touch.
Then the tie. Such a beautiful object of desire. Cold silk. Flamboyant or restrained. Material that can cost hundreds per meter, such a small amount designed to show off wealth in times past. A restraint around the neck in some contexts or a strap to be used in others. A satisfying way to pull a man closer with a single tug.
The shirt too does something special. It floats and flows. It skirts the torso showing fleeting glimpses of the body under it. Every flex and twist shows a hint of nipple through the front. The material is so light and delicate that a hand brushing against it can expose the body under the gament. So covered yet so naked and vunerable. So restrictive too with all those buttons and cuff links.
I'll stop there with the descriptions, I'm sure I've lost people already. My family history is in tailoring, so I guess I just adore these things more than most.
When I see a man in a beautiful suit, I just want to touch. I want to trace my hands all over them, to feel body through that second skin of fabric. To discover the ways that a body feels different under different combinations of fabric. To rub my cheek on the rough wool and bury my face in silky lining. I want to run the tip of my tongue along the side seam while inhaling a mans natural perfume and nuzzling the muscles that make up a mans armpit. I want to guide his mouth by using his tie.
It doesn't stop with a suit though. These fabrics are the ones I choose to put on my bed too. So I can pull them around my lover and feel his body through them. To encase our bodies in them as we play. The different textures and warmths providing different sensations.
Forget rubber and PVC, give me wool and silk any day.
I am such a lucky girl that I get to both play with designer suits all day (on models, of course) and also travel on the London Underground at rush hour in the heart of the tailoring district where I get to perv on my way too and front work each day...

I am with you on this. For me, it is definitely about the quality of a suit, the weight of the fabric, the cut and the way it fits. Any guy can stick on a Burton's or Tesco's special and look ok but a guy in a sharp, good quality suit, so much better. Take me on a journey and keep me safe on our travels.... | |||

You missed out that wearing a properly tailored suit also makes the wearer feel great. Power dressing isn't just for women and the whole outfit, providing you wear it enough to be comfortable in it, really puts you in the mood to do business. My body shape never worked in "off the peg" clothes and I remember my tailor asking if I rowed. He was taken aback when I said no, just lots of judo. Still it forced me to think about what to wear at an earlier age than I might otherwise have done. I understand entirely where you are coming from and you barely mentioned colour matching. Quality material, properly tailored is worth every penny. I no longer regularly commute on the tube and I always thought the crush was simply the overcrowded rush hour trains. Now I know different!

Uhh.. Sorry, think I just came. Very, very good, girl. And, may I add one more thing? A pure wool overcoat, the smell of it, when he has just stepped in from the rain. Hmmmmm It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance, for our consideration and application of these things, and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process. | |||

Yep am with you, its a 3 piece suit that does it for me every time. Moreso than a Police uniform and that is saying something.
For me.. its also about power and authority, a well worn suit shows self respect, dignity and pride. You just don't get that same feeling of respect for a bloke in a vest, shorts and flipflops! | |||

God, I agree so wholeheartedly with the OP I nearly wet. Just don't forget the beautifully polished black Oxfords, polished by me for preference, with love and elbow grease. Ooooh. I like the trousers cut slightly tight on the bum, like dancers wear them (think Gene Kelly) and is there anything more luscious than a man in a nicely cut waistcoat? With a beautiful silk lining in a deep rose pink perhaps, or lilac. Or I can go with red, if we are being "conservative." I've seen a decently cut suit add inches and confidence to a man and it is sex on a stick to see. Why doesn't everyone think they are just the business? I will never understand people who don't get them. Seconded on lovely overcoats as well. Bloody hell.

He's SO handsome and I like the way he wears a suit, even though he's a bit casual in that American way for my taste. Is he definitely gay? (I love it when people ask that, as though that's all that's keeping us apart!!) |
