It may be steeped in retro style, but Burlesque is thoroughly modern in the way it’s both empowering and provocative. With pin-up girl choreography, luxurious Burlesque lingerie, cupid bow painted lips and coiffured hair - it’s an intriguing art form. But how does one acquire the essence of Burlesque?

Dita’s definition

Begin with the sentiment. Burlesque lingerie queen Dita Von Teese defines Burlesque as being all about women ‘embracing their inner bombshell and having fun with dressing up. It’s a different kind of sexy. Its all about the fantasy smoke and mirrors of it all.’ (Source: CBS News).

Beautiful Burlesque lingerie

Burlesque gals also know it’s a lot to do with perfect underwear. Burlesque lingerie is opulent, decadent and divine. The garment equivalent of heady scent, inky-black nights and rich butter frosting. When properly fitted, it can enhance the voluptuous curve, or help to define it.

From gorgeous corselettes for streamline and control, to fabulous deep frilled black satin knickers. Or, try soft short kimonos and lush satin bustles to perk up your panties’ set. Lingerie brands such as Ayten Gassons, Kiss Me Deadly, Modern Courtesan, Lulu and Lush and FairyGothMother all evoke a Burlesque mood.

Swing those hips!

Once enticingly attired, you can then charm and beguile. A humourous sashay here, a Bettie Page style hula shake there, an elegant turn and a cheeky moo-moo pout - only then can you reveal a tantalizing glimpse of your luscious Burlesque lingerie.
