Serafina's Bio

Serafina Imperia is a dominant woman and power exchange practitioner based in New York City. Her journey began when confronted with—and swiftly rejecting—traditional gender roles, purity culture, and other societal “norms” which can define and constrict a young woman’s sexuality. Her passion for the structured practice of BDSM—Dominance and submission in particular—was ignited in college. In 2021, after many years learning and playing as a lifestyle Femdom, she left her corporate career to become a professional Dominatrix.

Ms. Imperia prefers simple and natural power exchange to the overtly performative. There is subtlety to her craft. Her innate power lies in harnessing her divinity to seduce and mesmerize; and in her subjects’ desire to be in service to a higher power. It’s a transformative relationship where she utilizes the vulnerability of her submissive to surface their most intimate and private desires.

Serafina’s lifestyle and ethos are in furtherance of her hedonistic nature: to derive the most pleasure out of the simplest things, to delight the senses, and to experience the beauty of life. This is reflected in how she chooses to spend her time—delighting in the arts, enjoying great food, being immersed in nature, and—of course—erotic exploration.

A lifetime lover of dainty and delicate luxuries like pantyhose and stockings, Serafina Imperia shares her enthusiasm for the exquisite with those she plays with in-person and through her online presence as The Nylon Icon (thenylonicon on X and Instagram), and at thenylonicon.com.
