Fetish Con 2014 in photos: They came to play

This was my 10th year attending Fetish Con, and it was just as amazing as it always is.

The convention is in its 14th year and was bigger than ever, bringing with it models, photographers, and fetish lifestylers from all over the world for the four-day event.

I picked up a steampunk skirt, saw a girl suspended by plastic wrap get tickled by an Amazon, and got to enjoy both after parties since the con provided a free shuttle for attendees for both nights' events.

There was always something happening, from the time they opened the doors in the morning, to the time the last shuttle came back from the after party.

Actually, considering the dungeon and the pool parties, it was probably non-stop from Thursday through Sunday night.

The exhibition hall was filled with booths offering handmade floggers, latex clothing, multicolored bondage rope and photo ops with special guests like Angela Sommers and Gia Nova.

There were also workshops and classes with topics like “The Federal Record Keeping Statute," “Adult Baby, Diaper Lover & Sissification” and “Safety and Accountability." The after-parties included performances from world-renowned fetish actresses, like Jean Bardot and Anastasia Pierce, as well as latex fashion shows.
