| PM: Hi Yasmin, welcome to PantyhoseMama.com, you
run EncasementFetish.com,
a site dedicated to pantyhose and spandex encasement. How did this all started?
Yasmin Ling: well, I have always been in to nylons and pantyhose ever since I
was young and started to explore various ways to play with them. Then when I was
in college in 1992, I can across a few photos of individuals... I believe "lycrahead"
was his name where he wore pantyhose from head to toe and was immediately fascinated.
I experimented on my own and then found others online that shared the interests.
I discovered SheerFiness.com
and became friends with Al and Nikki, who ran the site. We shared our experiences
and interests with this and I discovered that there were so many people out there
who enjoyed the same. Then I started a yahoo group called Pantyhose From Head
to Toe and found that it was extremely popular. This was about 6 years or so ago From
there I started efcommunity.com
a free site to share and connect with others about pantyhose and pantyhose encasement.
After about a year and a half, due to certain record keeping regulations and costs,
I decided to launch EncasementFetish.com,
a paid members site showcasing both the artistic and fetish side of full body
nylon encasement and spandex zentai interests. I personally enjoy the world of
BDSM so have incorporated that in as well. Al and Nikki have been instrumental
and highly supportive in this project and we have remained good friends and confidants
over the years. That is the general timeline of how things came about. Over
the past 4 years, I have met a number of various talent photographers and models
and friends who I have introduced this to and inspired them to explore and express
their own visual interpretations of encasement... which can be seen in the site...
from artistic to very sexual, there are so many possibilities. The website is
but once component to experience and express this. I also teach seminars on encasement
and incorporating pantyhose in your kinky play, so I'm constant getting new ideas
and sharing with the community of those curious or interested in this. PM:
Do you run everything yourself? Webdesign, publicity, admin, etc? Yasmin
Ling: yes I do, I have some help from Al and Nikki, but for the most part I take
care of everything from design, admin, marketing, shooting content. I also run
the community site efcommunity.com,
the yahoo group, my video clips store: clips4sale.com/store/2627
, about to launch BodyHose.com
this month and my own webdesign company YasminLing.com.
Oh, and I am a professional dominatrix too... MistressLing.com PM:
wow, do you sleep ;-) I like the photography, some pictures are very unique, esthetic,
artistic?. Who are the photographers? Yasmin Ling: well, actually I try
really hard to manage my time well. I work with many photographers, but the main
ones are Perry Gallagher, Christine Kessler, Circle 23, Betka Schpitz and a few
more. PM: Who are the models in EncasementFetish? Yasmin Ling:
There are from amateur friends to professional models. We have been extremely
fortunate to work with a number of very talented bondage/fetish models and Mistresses,
each brings a unique and special look and feel as they experience this form encasement.
Some have modeled a couple of times, others more often. Each brings a different
experience and look. Constantly looking for new models who would be interested
and would have fun with this. Very important because it shows in the images. Many
have returned to explore this over and over again and some have incorporated this
form of play and eroticism in their own personal explorations. Between encasement
fetish models are: Anyssa, Domiana Demonica, Devra, Analyn Blue, Domina Betka
Schpitz, Tomiko, Amanda Jilesse, Venus, Darling, Tiger Lily, Kumi, Alsana Sin,

Ms Conduct, Mistress Persephone, Mistress Cheyl, Michiko Minx, Babydoll, Mistress
Gemini, Mistress Kat9, Gwendoline Lamour and Bridgett Harrington. PM:
What is your favorite photo shoot? Yasmin Ling: wow, thats a tough question...
I have done hundreds of them and each is very different and fun in its own way,
my favorite ones are the public or outdoor ones. I also enjoy the ones where both
the model and photographers are having a blast and being very creative and I just
sit back and watch them after just suggesting a few things. There is just so much
variety and to watch someone experience this for the first time and completely
embracing is such a rush for me, its like sharing something your are passionate
about and seeing them appreciate and want to experience more, LOVE IT!
PM: Tell
us about your fetish, what turns you on? Yasmin Ling: well for me the
fetish starts with the sensation of nylons, spandex, and particularly pantyhose.
I LOVE the feel the look, especially the shiny, sheen, and texture. Legs encased
in this material are amazing and then incorporating it completely over an entire
body is just amazing. It turns me on to incorporate those fetish elements with
bondage, roleplay, domination, water, sexual and toys. PM: What turns
you on about full body nylon suits? Yasmin Ling: well I find that the
minute you pull that nylon over your face and you are completely encased its is
like a transformation. An ability to objectify yourself or your play partner,
where your identities are set aside and you can assume any form or identity. You
let go of your inhibitions and become the "slave" or piece of furniture,
or you are able to be an exhibitionist without being self conscious of being nude.
You are able to focus on the full body sensation and less on yourself and your
hang ups, its basically a very liberating experience. Having sex encased is amazing
partners slipping and sling against each other. So its both mental and physical
with the nylon suits, its also a very safe feeling and place almost like a cocoon,
your own private, personal space to meditate and just feel your surroundings through
this nylon membrane. PM: Tell us, about what kind of fetish plays you
have in nylon encasement - mummification, cocooning...? Yasmin Ling: Well,
one of the most popular and my favorite involves multiple layers of nylon encasement.
The possibilities are limitless. Other plays include, exhibitionism in public
(private parts covered), incorporating with water (shower, bath, swimming), bondage
with various things like rope, role plays (domination scenes), dressing up were
normal clothes is worn over the encasement, sexual play with encasement... do
I answer your question? PM: yes, and how does bondage spice up this play?
Yasmin Ling: it just adds another dimension to it. It brings an element of power
exchange that some find very exciting. Many enjoy the further sensation of the
nylon being pressed even tighter against the body. Role plays can be enhanced
with bondage as well. PM: Is encasement fetish sexual? Yasmin
Ling: For something to be sexual is a very personal experience. For me, most definitely
YES, but for each individual it varies. Some appreciate the artistic form, some
find it very calming and relaxing, and yes there are many that find it sexual
in many different ways. |
| PM: Do you make the suits yourself or
do you buy them? Yasmin Ling: the zentai ones, I buy as well as the nylon
tubes, the nylon suits I make myself from pantyhose or tights.
PM: How
do you make a nylon suit? Yasmin Ling: I get various colors and styles
from a all over. There are many different ways depending on how I want to play,
basically it involves 3 pairs of pantyhose cut in specific locations. I have detailed
instructions in my yahoo group and well as have posted it online. I will be happy
to email the instructions to anyone who would like to know how. Now real sewing
needed. Some other enthusiasts do some cutting and sewing and can be very involved
in making it, Zentaianna is a very creative one. PM: Your seminars on
"Nylon Encasement and Pantyhose Play", what does such a course contain?
Yasmin Ling: I start off with the basics and history and share my personal experience
first, then we cover the psychology and techniques, I offer safety tips and resources
and then my audience participates and I do some demonstrations. PM: What
are the plans for the future regarding you involvement with encasement fetish?
Yasmin Ling: well for EncasementFetish.com,
that will have a new design and look in the next few months. BodyHose.com
will offer multi-color nylon tubes for sale, efcommunity.com
will include a new message forum, I have added a very cool map feature that can
be seen here,
so people can see where other encasement fans are in the world. I will be expanding
the videos available on clips4sale.com/store/2627.
Also I am working on a 200 page Erotic encasement coffee table book, a photo compilation,
I hope that it will be published in about a year. PM: Nice to hear about
you and your work, thanks for being here with us today at PantyhoseMama.com
