► PERISH

Perish is one of the few full-on male fetish superstars of the world! For well over a decade, Perish has raised boundaries and intrigue as a fetish model, stage performer, fashion designer, prop builder, and is one of Los Angeles's most extreme party planners to boot. Having degrees in both Architecture and Electrical Engineering, he constantly recreats his form and function with astounding versatility. Perish provokes an elegant mix of pan-sexual aesthetics mixed with androgyny, dissecting gender in fetish & fashion in which magazines such as SkinTwo, Marquis, Von Gutenburg & others have touted him as being the one of the leading male fetish models unleashing his image on their magazine covers, fashion spreads & catalogues, runways & more. Traveling the world and performing in over 30 countries from the US to overseas, armed with one-of-a-kind engineered instruments and giant exploding phallic weaponry impacting warehouse parties to major festivals, and annual fetish events from the casinos of Las Vegas, the Islands of the Bahamas, London's underground to Moscow's best kept secret clubs, Perish has set the bar high for all emerging male models to follow, and says he's just getting started! A designer & visionary, Perish lives every day as if it's his last. He's been called a thrill-seeker and a prodigy, and an angelic force placed on earth to inspire intrinsic natures for all sexes... When asked why he started modeling and performing, he simply says he's a victim of his own devilish drive. Welcoming your eyes and testing your fears, Perish is male fetish at its finest.

► ► ► FETISH DRESS CODE ENFORCED AT ALL EVENTS

The Vancouver Fetish Weekend is a place to TRANSFORM YOURSELF and let out your inner creativity. It is a place to break down personal limitations, and showcase your personal sexuality, imagination and diversity. Far from being a place where people simply go 'bare as you dare,' we highly encourage people to indulge in their most over-the-top outfit creations, including all the following options and more :

RUBBER / LEATHER / LATEX / PVC / BODY PAINT / FULL FETISH-GOTH, CYBER-FETISH AND FETISH COSPLAY / UNIFORM / CORSETS / LINGERIE / ARMOUR / DRAG / CROSS-DRESS

Outfits do not have to be expensive - with some creativity, low-cost but ultra sexy fetish outfits can be made from materials such as plastic wrap, or altered second hand / thrift store costumes & uniforms. A good rule of thumb is - if you could wear it to a 'normal' vanilla club or out on the street and not attract any attention, it probably won't pass the fetish dress code and you WILL be denied entry. No effort = no entry, no exceptions! For more information, see the full dress code listing here : http://sincityfetishnight.com/house-rules/fetish-dress-code/
