That is a warning Rarity wished she remembered from her contacts in the fashion industry while making a last minute fix on a seahorse inspired dress for Sapphire Shore’s back up dancers for her latest Concert: Shoo-be Doo! On Tour now!

She found it strange that she requested Latex for the dress, figuring the natural glossy look, it would feel more like they were really under water. But the order is do in a few hours and she can’t seem to get the latex to stay put so she decided to use a little bit of magic… Oh how she wished she didn’t do that.

In a matter of minutes, the latex liquified into a puddle. she screamed, thinking that she had ruined the dress. Panicking, she ran around the boutique looking for the extra latex she bought, but she couldn’t seem to find it, pushing her to the point breaking down, causing her to run through the slimy puddle.

Disgusted by the ooze, she tries to clean it off.. But it stuck to her fast.
In fact, it appeared to grow, covering her hoof quickly before making its way up her leg. Before she could realize what was going on ,she was engulfed by the latex dress. Her current dress was dissolved by the climbing material, the latex covering her body and fur. Her tail is pulled into a sack forming behind her, making it impossible to rip off without ruining her fur.
She tried to use magic in a last ditch effort, but it had already started to cover her head and horn, preventing her from using magic. As she was about to scream for help, it too covered her mouth, silencing her. She struggled against the encasing rubber, hoping to get free, only for a collar to form around her neck, locking her head into place.

Soon, the dress starts to harden around her legs, creating a tail like that of a seahorse. Thinking it couldn’t get any worse, her fear turns into terror as the latex picks up the seahorse headpiece, pulling it in front of her face little by little. It was then, she realized what was about to happen, hoping someone would find her before it’s too late. She knew she would be trapped in the latex suit, and to make matters worse, that the last thing she would see for however long her predicament would last… is a tacky dress that Sweetie Belle left on her table.

Well, at least it couldn’t get any worse.. Could it?

A com that I still owed to ponyguy67 wanted after seeing a similar pic on derpibooru that someone did with Rainbow Dash, not one of the strangest things I drawn… but it was fun :3
