Over the last two decades, Vex has created countless handmade latex pieces and have transformed our clients. We have had the opportunity to see our clients unleash themselves. There is no greater feeling than seeing the right person discover latex. Witnessing the moment that latex elevates their style, and experiencing the unpredictability and uniqueness of them styling Vex pieces to their individuality. It’s always stunning!
Vex style is fashion with a hint of fetish. Our pieces are elegant and sexy at once, blending the classic with irresistible allure. Each Vex piece is made with timelessness in mind: with the proper care, it is forever captivating.
Our mission with Vex is simple, but not small: create handmade, exceptional work with a personal touch. From the quality materials I use to the note Laura includes in each package, each step of the process is inspired by a dedication to quality and to the moments of personal discovery Vex pieces inspire.
Latex is the most sensual fabric, it transforms
your body and your mind. The look, feel,
taste and smell is like no other.
If you’re new to latex or new to Vex, welcome. I want to share a little about me and the history of Vex latex.
I’m Laura Petrielli, the founder of Vex Latex. I discovered latex while studying at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York in the early 2000. Its unique qualities captivated me immediately—it was an outlier in the world of traditional fashion materials. My fascination led me to study under a local latex designer, and I haven’t looked back since.
For years, people have assumed that Vex is a large company with multiple designers and a sprawling production team. The truth? Vex is me, and I am Vex. I launched the brand before graduating college two decades ago, and it has been my sole focus and passion ever since. Each piece is sketched, designed, and handcrafted in my Southern California studio with the help of my small, dedicated team. Every creation at Vex tells a story, and for me, each design is deeply personal.
Vex has taken me to places I never could have imagined. I was a runner-up on Bravo’s fashion competition show, Styled to Rock, hosted by Rihanna. My designs have been worn by icons like Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, Beyoncé, Katy Perry, and Dita Von Teese, and have graced the pages of Vogue, W, Interview Magazine, and more.
Vex has grown into something far greater than I ever dreamed when I first discovered latex. My hope is that through Vex’s unique designs, you’ll be inspired to discover something new about yourself.
