Fetish-Memoirs and Rainbound are both well established paysites in the rainwear community. But who is behind these popular rainwear and bondage sites?

We talked to Helena, Fetish-Memoirs' webmistress, about her love for bondage and rainwear...

FetishRainwear.com: Tell us about yourself and how long you have been into rainwear?

Helena: Hi my name is Helena and as many of you may know, my husband and I have been involved in the rainwear community for quite a while. We met at a photo shoot I was doing for a fetish wear and bondage site. So it was clear to both of us, right from the start, that we shared a love for bondage and all fetish clothing.

FetishRainwear.com: When did you first noticed that you had a fetish for rainwear?

Helena: I feel the word fetish is misused so much these days. As to have a true fetish means to be unable to function sexually without it. Thankfully that is not the case for either myself or my husband, however we both love the look and feel of rainwear and it is one of many kinks that we share. I think I first found a love for PVC when I was about 13 and got into the Gothic scene. Goths here love to wear PVC and rubber so it was something I found to be the norm rather than something pervy or odd.

FetishRainwear.com: What do you find so interesting about rainwear?

Helena: All the different styles and materials something for everyday. From my normal everyday short PVC jacket and pink girly hunter wellies that I wear to walk my wolf. To the classy black patent long trench coats or glass pvc full length coats I have for wearing with my high heeled boots for going out shopping etc.

FetishRainwear.com: So is your partner also into rainwear?

Helena: As I said before its just one of many preferences that we share.

FetishRainwear.com: If we look in your rainwear wardrobe, what would we find and what are your favorites?

Helena: There is really not much you wouldn't find. I have a whole room full of rainwear downstairs, plus three other wardrobes. In all hundreds of coats and around 60 pairs of rubber boots plus rain hats, rubber gloves and my other clothing love, shoes. I have about 60 pairs of high heeled shoes and 40 pairs of high heeled boots. My fav rainwear would have to be shiny black coats from my early goth years and then clear pvc long coats, of cause not forgetting bright purple coats and jackets.

FetishRainwear.com: Is there a special kind of play you like to do in rainwear?

Helena: I love dressing up with friends it's very entertaining to hear what they like about certain coats and boots. It's great fun to go out in the wind and rain with them, and my dog. Messing about in the mud on the fields is always good for a laugh.

FetishRainwear.com: Do you have a special rainwear experience that you would like to share with us?

Helena: Being involved in the alternative scene we go to different club nights that friends of ours DJ at. One night I went in a clear Pvc hobble skirt, silver pvc underwear and a clear pvc mac. A couple of my friends went in black pvc with matching black macs. We certainly got a lot of attention that night.

Another fond memory was having sex on a busy beach wearing a tightly belted black rubber mac and high heeled leather boots. That was a great day out for both of us.

FetishRainwear.com: Your websites are quite popular, can you tell us about them?

Helena: We have a few sites the two which feature only rainwear are Fetish Memoirs and Rainbound.
Fetish Memoirs is great fun lots of pictures and video clips of myself and friends dressing up in my collection.
Rainbound is rainwear bondage. Bondage is another great love of my husbands and mine. So it made sense to combine it with our love of rainwear.

FetishRainwear.com: What are your plans for the future?

Helena: We plan to keep our sites going and are always interested to hear what people want to see. I also have no intention of giving up my love for dressing in an alternative style. My family and friends love the fact that I go shopping in punk or goth clothing and very high heels.

Even our bank manager says there is nothing I could do to shock him any more. I think that sounds like a dare! As for other plans I tend not to make any with a family and so much else to worry about I like to take life as it comes. It worked very well so far.

FetishRainwear.com: If you would give some words of wisdom to a beginner rainwear fetishist, what would it be?

Helena: Having been into all sorts of fetishes or preferences for a long time I've seen the positive and negative effects they can have on people. Sadly so many seem to stop being themselves and become their fetish, letting it rule their lives.

So my advice would be explore your interests and others with an open mind.
When it comes to relationships remember a fetish is only in your head. A loved one is a real person who needs to be cared for and respected.

FetishRainwear.com: Thank you so much for your time!

Helena: Thank you for yours. Also for such a classy rainwear blog it's very informative, a great resource for rainwear lovers. You make a lovely couple. We wish you every happiness for the future.
