FETISHWEEK: Mistress Simone is Fighting for Her Dungeon and This is How You Can Help

In this FETISHWEEK exclusive interview, I’m joined by Mistress Simone who is fighting to keep her Chicago Studio open during the pandemic. I’m talking to her about the history of the studio, what it means for the BDSM and fetish community, and how tough it is to keep going in these challenging times.

Mistress Simone

Mistress Simone is a staple in the Chicago and national community with a career spanning nearly 30 years. She opened her first independent studio in 1995, making The Chicago Studio the longest-running, female-owned space in Chicago. Lifting up the community, both professional and lifestyle, has always been a top priority and is reflected in her space to this day.

About The Studio

The Chicago Studio has been in its current location for over a decade. Many talented Chicago-based Dominas and other S.W.s call this space home, while a plethora of visiting Mistresses feel welcomed to make it their Chicago touchstone. Mistress Simone has taken this expansive space and filled it with enough equipment, toys and furniture to satisfy even the most creative. This is no accident, she has poured her heart and soul into those walls to solidify the Studio’s place as a fixture of the Chicago community.

The Chicago Studio has long been a safe space for freedom of expression. Hosting education weekends, events and community groups. Including but not limited to TNGC, Rough Group, CCF and Chicago ABDL.
