Yeah, but a wedding dress is a ceremonial sort of outfit and one that I doubt many women would want to wear on a anything like a daily basis. (I've seen brides in tears, their dresses have been so painful). Same with ball-gowns, I would have thought.
I have no idea about the jump from fetish to club wear, so I'll take your word for it.

if you extend the realm of fetish to club wear and bridal to ballgowns that does cover a large proportion of the (mostly female) population...
fwiw when I think about high heels I do definitely relate it to foot binding on some level - both have aspects of sexual objectification, being incapacitated so you can't run away, and being so wealthy you are above needing to walk/work.
