Hi ladies n gents iv been on lovehoney for a while and noticed that bondage seems to be a big hit…im a curvy lady (size 18-22) and id love to give bondage ago with my fiancé but worried my size could get in the way especially with the gorgeous outfits. Am I too big I want to be sexy but if I’m too big im afraid I won’t be sexy enough for my other half…any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated please n thank you x
Hi @The_lady_in_pink my partner is a curvy lady (size 20/22) and we have crossed over to the ‘dark side’ a little while now. What exactly do you want information on, is it the different types of outfits or the various bits of equipment and contraptions that can be bought?
@Welsh-Warrior hi there thank you for your reply…any info would be great…I oftern thought id be too big for bondage and oftern through whats the best items to go for as a beginner…iv seen what lovehoney sell and to be honest it all looks amazing
@Goth_Girl hi there thank you…yeah il take a look and see…and do you feel sexy in the outfits? I just want to look great for my OH
Hi @The_lady_in_pink Size needn’t be an issue with this or anything else to come to think of it. There’s a massive choice of outfits here for the more generously proportioned woman ( I’m round about a size 18 and 36 GG) . Sure, as @Goth_Girl has said, the cups can come up a bit small but overspill in the bedroom has never been a problem!
The right lingerie can give you a massive confidence boost
@wildflower thank you for your reply…im hoping so im going to do some looking now on the bondage section…iv never done bondage before so God knows where to start
@The_lady_in_pink I would hate to think what we have spent just in recent years but almost everything gets repeated use
If you are just ‘dipping your toes in’ at present I would look at the bond age for beginners section, but as a starter kit I would say:
Underbed ties (or cuffs)
Possibly a Spreader bar
Blindfold
Tickler
Flogger/crop
If you are feeling a bit more adventurous
Nipple clamps (and clit?)
Pinwheel
Gag
(all of these generate a great reaction)
The list really is endless and all depends on your budget and comfort zone.
You can (and probably will!) spend an awful lot of money on things if you decide this is the path you want to go down
@The_lady_in_pink I’d suggest starting off gently and find out what you both enjoy first. It could be something as simply as being restrained by the wrists with a scarf or furry handcuffs. Or a blindfold.
I would make one point, if you choose anything with velcro such as wrists or ankle restraints then be very careful if you’re wearing lingerie such as bodystockings. I almost ruined one of mine when it got snagged on velcro!
@Welsh-Warrior thank you…id like to try something different just to keep that spark alive especially now we have a baby…iv got quite a high pain threshold I enjoy getting tattoos and piercings as I enjoy the pain…we are both very open minded we will try anything once
There are some Lovehoney Bondage guides that you may find useful?
Yes I agree with @wildflower if you opt for velcro cuffs be careful what you wear. We have spoilt quite a few body stockings or holdups / stockings this way. We have even spoilt a few bras this way when the velcro has snagged them as being put on or taken off.
@wildflower fab thank you…i’ve never done it before so not sure what id like and dislike but im open to try anything once x
@Ian_Chimp aw brilliant thank you id like to do my research before ploughing right in there but its exciting trying new things
@Welsh-Warrior yeah id probably start with velcro as its less restraining then some of the items iv seen on here I think that would be a great place to start
Lovehoney Plus Size Fierce wet look range is fantastic and flattering they give a real confidence boost
Never let your size inhibit you or your desires, lingerie wise you can find plenty that fits at your size. The most important thing is you feeling sexy in it, as that confidence will show through. As for actual kink or bondage the most being larger does is make some positions more creative but it has never inhibit me or my love of it and i’m much large than you.
Don’t worry about your size, you’re no doubt thinking about it way more than your OH.
There’s quite a big collection of outfits to choose from so well worth finding something that suits you. Bit like how not all “normal” clothes will suit everyone there’ll be outfits that are right for you.
And when you’ve chosen the right one you’re happy with you’re welcome to post a photo in the lingerie thread and see the positive reaction you get from everyone
size really dosnt matter my wifes big an so am i lol we get on just fine but to be honest she dosnt dress up much because it dosnt stay on long anyway we started with velcro restraints and a blindfold then moved on to leather an more heavy duty stuff lol the open mouth gag i bought her last christmas is my all time favourite though getiing a little tingle just thinking about that actually lol
