NEW YORK—With only a few weeks to go before the New York Rubber Ball weekend kicks off and the Miss Rubber World Competition begins, the prize pool for Miss Rubber World has now reached over $10,000 worth of rubber fetish wear and accessories.
"The prizes are amazing!" said fetish model Psylocke, the Swedish competitor. "I've never been to an American fetish party so this will be very interesting for me to see!"
When crowned Miss Rubber World 2013, the winner will receive more than $5,000 of latex gear from sponsors such as Cocolate Latex, The Baroness, Cinched Tight Corsets, Dawnamatrix, Kink Engineering, and Fetish Movies.com.
The second- and third-place winners will also take home thousands of dollars worth of slippery rubber prizes provided by sponsors such as Demask, AM Statik, Fetisso and Lust Designs.
"There is an inherently sexual quality to latex clothing," said sponsor Klawdya Rothschild of Klawtex. "It so resembles the texture of skin and is sleek and shiny. Latex is versatile enough to take the most subdued thing to the extreme, like a spotlight emanating out from your own body that radiates sensuality."
Running for the title of Miss Rubber World 2013 are latex fanatics from around the world, such as adult video star and producer Julie Simone, designer Madria of Madria Latex, and Val Vampyre, organizer of Fetish Factory in Florida. At this time, five spots are still open for the competition.
"I've heard nothing but nice things about the entire Miss Rubber World team," said Val Vampyre. "I literally want to come into that room and have a drink with everyone there."
New York Rubber Ball kicks off with the event launch party presented by Fixe magazine, Thursday, April 4 at One on One on East First Street in New York City. The ball reaches its peak with the 2013 Miss Rubber World competition Saturday, April 6 at the Union Square Ballroom on 27 Union Square West.
There's too much rubber madness to list it all here. Latex lovers can find a full schedule, see photographs of past events, and even enlist to compete in Miss Rubber World at NYRubberBall.com.
