Clothing has always been about more than merely covering the body. It can tell a story, make a statement, inspire specific feelings, and more. This edition of The Weekly Hot Spot podcast is all about Sissy Bondage Wear – everything from items we love, to DIY bondage ideas and, of course, safety tips. Remember you can listen to our BDSM kink podcast on Spreaker or on your preferred podcast app. Here’s a link to the Sissy Bondage Wear episode if you want to listen while you read the transcript. Enjoy!
Ms Olivia: Welcome to The Weekly Hot Spot, where kink meets conversation. Each episode, we explore the psychology of power exchange, share real-world BDSM dynamics, and explain the art of Distance Domination. I’m Ms Olivia, here with my friend Ms Erika, and today we’re talking about clothing. Specifically, sissy bondage wear.
Ms Erika, you came up with this topic. What inspired it?
Our sissy inspired this episode about sissy bondage wear
Ms Erika: Well, like a lot of our inspiration, it comes from our callers. Just before I was brainstorming podcast ideas, I was talking to a submissive, Kristi, who loves hobble skirts. It made me realize, after looking back at our spreadsheet, that we haven’t done a specific podcast on sissy bondage wear. That needed to be corrected!
Ms Olivia: You’re absolutely right. With feminization or sissy training, what you wear is profoundly important, but it’s more than just the garment itself. It’s the why behind wearing it, and I think that’s especially true with bondage wear for sissies.
Do you think clothing can be an element of control? Throughout history, it certainly has been. Chinese foot binding, corsetry, those immense Victorian dresses… they’re all examples.
Ms Erika: Absolutely. There’s a lot of control inherent in clothing. And then we turn those tables on our girls, don’t we?
Strict versus sensual domination
Ms Olivia: Yes, we do. So, in your opinion, would strict domination always include sissy bondage wear? For example, would a more sensual dominatrix use them? How do you negotiate that with yourself and the sissy?
Ms Erika: I think some type of bondage wear is more common under a strict dominatrix, but it certainly exists within sensual domination as well. It might just mean an adjustment in what’s applied. Strict could mean hobble skirts or lockable ballet heels. A more sensual approach might be a simple, locked-on maid’s dress that isn’t necessarily tight and binding. So it can vacillate between styles; it’s just a matter of application.
When Mistress does sissy training
Ms Olivia: That’s a great point. Let’s talk a little about what this clothing does for a sissy. For example, you brought up a hobble skirt. For folks who don’t know, it’s like a pencil skirt but even tighter, often with no vent or slit, forcing the wearer to take tiny, constrained steps. What does clothing like this accomplish psychologically?
Ms Erika: Oh, my. Well, it can provoke feelings of arousal, of course. The feeling of being controlled, being forced into this position. But why the arousal? One reason is it reaffirms who they are on the inside: “I am feminine. I am a sissy.” But it can also be humiliating, especially for those who you point out will never “pass” as feminine. You could use that hobble skirt, give them physical tasks to perform, and really stretch their physical and mental capabilities.
Ms Olivia: I love that. And since you bring up humiliation, I immediately think of those huge, pink, frilly sissy party dresses, especially with the matching frilly rhumba panties!
Ms Erika: (Laughter) Yes!
Ms Olivia: Now, bondage wear can also be a reward. Some of these items are truly beautiful and elegant. I think of it as the princess paradox: you’re not into humiliation, but you adore the control, the feeling of being managed by a Mistress.
Ms Erika: Absolutely. Discipline and reward are involved in all of this. For those who may not understand the draw, sometimes the binding itself—putting on that hobble skirt—may be humbling, but it’s also reaffirming of their place. And if they enjoy the feeling of compression, it becomes a reward in itself.
Ms Olivia: Speaking of compression, I often recommend long-line girdles or bodysuits. They constrict, they’re tight, they hold the clitty in. This is why, when people ask for pantyhose suggestions, I recommend control-top. It’s tighter and more effective.
Ms Erika: And if you’re tucking, it makes it so much easier because it keeps everything nice and secure. Nothing’s flying out.
Ms Olivia: And you know, some sissies have a clitty big enough to… find a way out. Not all, but some!
Ms Erika: Right, absolutely.
Lockable dresses for sissy
Ms Olivia: You mentioned lockable dresses. On Amazon, you can find hobble skirts or dresses that literally come with a lock. But you can also buy items called locking loops that you can add to existing dresses or corsets.
Ms Erika: Thank you for mentioning that! I should know these things, as I used to sew. For listeners who aren’t clear, locking loops are simply two small loops you stitch on either side of a zipper or buttons. You can then slide a lock through them, making even a favorite outfit lockable.
Ms Olivia: Yay! We’re full-service with our handy skills. Now, could you put those loops on something like boots or thigh-highs?
Ms Erika: If you have a pair of boots you want to make lockable, absolutely. The challenge is you’ll need a strong needle, like an upholstery needle, to puncture materials like leather, latex, or PVC. You can do it, it’s just more challenging. The idea isn’t that it’s impossible to remove; it’s that it’s locked on. If you try to tamper with it, it will be evident. You could get out, but you’d ruin the item, and your Mistress would know.
Lockable ankle straps
Ms Olivia: I am a big fan of pink platform shoes with locking ankle straps. I love that look.
Ms Erika: Oh, yes, it’s delicious. The girls who love it adore the subtle movement of the lock as they walk. It can even aid in training. If I want you to stomp like a Victoria’s Secret model, you’ll feel that lock jump with each step, providing immediate feedback.
Self bondage for sissy
Ms Olivia: Yes! Now, other items… a bondage belt. That’s a set of thigh cuffs, wrist cuffs, and connector straps. It’s fabulous for sissies or any submissive into bondage. You can configure it in various ways and use a timed lock or a key lock. They’re great because, while you can get out, it requires concentration. We always prioritize safety, both physical and situational. What if your wife comes home early? You need to be able to remove it.
Ms Erika: Right. Absolutely. The suggestions you’re giving, and in my experience, Distance Domination and bondage is one of the more challenging things to execute. But please remember, it’s not meant to be exactly like having someone there applying the bondage. It’s about giving you the feeling of being bound. You’re not supposed to be inescapable. Maybe you just want the tactile sensation of wrist cuffs to reinforce that you are bound. You don’t have to be Houdini.
Ms Olivia: Well said. And if you want to be Houdini, go to a Pro-Domme who specializes in bondage and rigging. Remember we interviewed Cassie, who loves ropes?
Ms Erika: Yes, Cassie loves ropes all about self-bondage.
Ms Olivia: Another bondage-esque item is a sensory deprivation hood. I love those.
Ms Erika: And, of course, a collar.
Ms Olivia: Yes! It can be a traditional dog collar or something more delicate. For bondage, I like posture collars, the kind that tilt your chin up.
Ms Erika: Yes, love posture collars. I have a slave with a rather thick one; he really can’t bend his neck. Looking in the mirror during a session is perfect because he can’t look down.
Ms Olivia: I love that. It provides a very real sensation of bondage because it physically prevents a natural action. Oh, speaking of that, spreader bars! Ankle cuffs connected by a bar, which can be metal, wood, or rope. You can lock one or both ankles.
Ms Erika: Yes, absolutely. What a festive way to do tasks with a spreader bar on!
Ms Olivia: Ooh, yes. A cute little maid’s outfit with a spreader bar.
Ball gags, penis gags and huge lip gags
Ms Erika: Another great item: gags.
Ms Olivia: Ball gags, penis gags… I love those gigantic lip gags, too.
Ms Erika: I was thinking of that! Your sub, Slut Pie, has one. I fucking love it.
Ms Olivia: Aren’t they wonderful? A safety note on penis gags: if it’s long, do not lock it. You want a short, stubby one, no more than an inch and a half. You don’t want to lock something that’s towards the back of your throat.
Ms Erika: Safety first! We want you safe. Here’s another tip: if you’re concerned about timing or losing keys, you can use chastity key tags instead of a regular lock. You can still show your Mistress you’ve been locked for a set time. If I tell you to wear your hobble skirt for four hours and send a photo, you need to show me the same key tag is still there.
Key tags versus locks
Ms Olivia: For those who don’t know, if you search “chastity key tags” or “numbered tags” on Amazon, you’ll find them. They’re a length of plastic with a numbered tab. You loop it through what you’re locking and secure it. Most people can physically rip them if necessary, but it maintains accountability. You’re still accountable to your Mistress.
Ms Erika: That’s a great point. The accountability is key. Some bondage doesn’t necessarily have to be lockable. It can just be tight and snug. It’s about the feeling of being secure, the accountability, and the sensation of safety in the snugness.
Ms Olivia: True. Why do you think weighted blankets are popular? That compression on the body can work on the vagus nerve, making you feel safe and cared for.
Ms Erika: Exactly.
Ms Olivia: I love an ice-cold room, snuggled under flannel sheets and a pile of blankets. A friend got me a weighted blanket, and I did not like that feeling at all. Have you ever tried one?
Ms Erika: Too constricting, yeah. I don’t care for them either.
Ms Olivia: I wonder if that’s because we’re femdoms. It’s like, “No, I’m the boss of my legs!”
Ms Erika: (Laughing) Hey, you know what? We need to talk about chastity! A chastity cage is a perfect way for many to feel bound and controlled without a lot of other items. Is it your goal for sissies to start with a cage and gradually go smaller to feel more confined? How do you decide what cage is appropriate?
Ms Olivia: That’s an excellent question. That’s a whole separate topic.
Ms Erika: We should do a whole episode on that!
Ms Olivia: Exactly. A whole episode, because there are different sizes, materials, etc.
Ms Erika: Perfect. I love it. See how it’s done? We just planned another podcast. Beautiful.
DIY ideas for self-bondage
Ms Olivia: So, what are some budget-friendly or DIY options for sissy bondage wear? Things you might already have at home. Locking loops and key tags are budget-friendly, but you still have to buy them.
Ms Erika: Absolutely. If you’re starting out, it can be expensive to buy all the things we’ve mentioned. If you don’t have the storage space or just want to experiment, old stockings or pantyhose are great. Tie them in a circle, create a small loop, and put it around your wrist. Do a figure-eight until it’s tight. You can hook them over a poster bed or a simple J-hook behind your headboard. Or, sitting on the floor, hook them over a doorknob. It recreates that feeling of being stretched and bound safely.
Ms Olivia: Brilliant! And that’s super safe.
Ms Erika: Physical sensation is number one, and so is your safety. Now, hobble skirts. What if you can’t store one? The next best thing is to use pantyhose or stockings. Wrap them around the bottom of your thighs or right above your knees and tie them tight. It will remind you to keep your steps small and constrained. If it falls down while you’re walking, it wasn’t tight enough, and your legs weren’t together enough.
Ms Olivia: Well said. A word of caution: if you’re using pantyhose or stockings to wrap, say, your clitty, be very careful. Because they’re stretchy, if you tie them super tight, they can become very difficult to remove. When in doubt, start with less tension until you find what’s safe and effective.
Ms Erika: Absolutely. You mentioned long-line girdles earlier. Several pairs of tight panties or control-top pantyhose can create a feeling of sensory deprivation. You’re unable to feel or touch anything down there.
Ms Olivia: And one thing with several layers of panties… one of my subs, Gigi, likes to wear teeny tiny panties that are the wrong size. They’re not comfortable; they’re tight. It’s a great way to enforce behavior.
Ms Erika: That’s right. “You behave yourself, or I’ll put you in too-small panties.” Yes, please. Wow.
Ms Olivia: I love that. If you like the idea of a corset or waist cincher but don’t have one, you can use an ACE bandage from your hips to your rib cage. Wrap it nice and tight to create your own waist cincher, then put your girly outfit on top.
Ms Erika: That’s brilliant. And if you have privacy issues, it’s easily explained away. “Oh, I had a twinge in my back.”
Ms Olivia: Exactly. And for those who love to stay on their toes but can’t get ballet heels, take an old pair of high pumps, four to six inches, and remove the heel. You have to stay on your toes. Do your chores with no heel, your pantyhose hobble skirt, and your ACE bandage cincher.
Ms Erika: I love this! What great ideas!
Ms Olivia: Thank you! Now ladies, go forth and dust.
Ms Erika: I think the most common lockable items, aside from chastity cages, are probably lockable shoes and lockable bras.
