I did, and I am sure the crowd will follow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">As you probably know, there&#8217;s been a long history of fetish\/BDSM world crossing to the \u201cvanilla\u201d world \u2013 we&#8217;ve seen Madonna trying to put us in a trance as a Dominatrix whilst wearing latex costumes and uniforms (Erotica), Rachel Weisz in super shiny PVC catsuit (or was it latex? &#8211; not sure now); of course Dita Von Teese, Lady Ga-ga to name just a few. It was always fascinating to watch them in these shiny, tight, dazzling outfits \u2013 like Gaga in \u201cPoker Face\u201d, PVC wearing Femme-Fatales regularly appearing in just about every hit US action show there is.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">And there were times when looking at the model\/actress\/singer I said to myself: \u201cdamn, our catsuits are much better that that\u201d or \u201cour latex boots are sexier than what she&#8217;s wearing\u201d. It might have been a bit biased, but this is how I felt about it&#8230; And still feel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/joannalark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/AP6.JPG\" alt=\"AP6\" width=\"488\" height=\"373\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joannalark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/AP6.JPG 630w, https:\/\/www.joannalark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/AP6-300x228.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 488px) 100vw, 488px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><!-- @page { size: 21cm 29.7cm; margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } --><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">I knew that opportunity for JL would come \u2013 it was only a matter of time, but I didn\u2019t expect opportunities to come so soon&#8230; and that big-boys (or girls?) like Vogue and Agent Provocateur would seek me out and come knocking on my door.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">First \u2013 it was Vogue. They asked for couple of our corsets for a Lady Gaga photo session and I happily delivered \u2013 considering what would best suit whilst watching her and thinking how it would fit&#8230;. So far Vogue magazine chosen our stuff three times, and if it&#8217;s not a big endorsement of the quality and style of our products then I don\u2019t know what is<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Straight after that Agent Provocateur gave me a call and asked for 70 of our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.joannalark.com\/store\/products\/Incredible-PVC-Hat-For-Domme-Of-Course.html\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\">PVC Dominatrix shiny sexy hats<\/span><\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">As usually with these types of situations everything was done in the nick of time, so there was a bit of a stretching to deliver it on time \u2013 AP wanted to get 70 and we only had 10. It&#8217;s all beautifully handmade and there was not enough time to get them all done in this time window.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">It\u2019s a good feeling that at last the time has come for JL to put her 2 cents into the bdsm\/fetish \u2013 vanilla m\u00e9salliance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">And don&#8217;t take my word for that \u2013 just look at Selfridges front window, right next to the main entrance:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/joannalark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/AP5.JPG\" alt=\"AP5\" width=\"537\" height=\"365\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-1213903\/Agent-Provocateur-models-march-Selfridges-launch-new-lingerie-line.html\">http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-1213903\/Agent-Provocateur-models-march-Selfridges-launch-new-lingerie-line.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- @page { size: 21cm 29.7cm; margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } --><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">I always knew there is something special about our stuff, with Joanna Lark being right there in the mix&#8230; and now it&#8217;s confirmed again.
