FESTIVAL OF SINS
OCTOBER 11: LUST
Fashion Show by Passion Stains (Glasgow) who says
Nevermind the foreplay, here comes Passion Stains!
Passion Stains is the demonic love spawn of one girl, a Miss Lyndsay Pagan, who lovingly creates each piece by hand in glamourous Glasgow. This collection has been designed especially for Festival of Sins, and is a celebration of all that is unpure, raw, sinful and wrong. The collection will entail lots of saucy panties that are sleazy by nature, dresses to be ravished in, snakeskin leggings to dance in, and corsets to dominate in.... Embrace The Shame!

Highly Recommended by The Fetishistas who say it is:
"Fast becoming known as London’s most debauched variety night"
Punk Globe Website proclaims it as:
"different to any other club I've been to...if you fancy a decadent night out, then look no further"
Bubblegum Slut Magazine suggests it is:
"an inspired and refreshingly original fixture on the London club circuit most importantly lacks the cliqueness and pretension of many more specifically targeted events. For the sinful and open-minded this is a whole lot of fun!"
