Burlesque and Wedding Fascinators

Fascinators are great alternative to a hat: they are smaller, often less ostentatious, and i personally think they are more classy and elegant. Great burlesque look but can be lovely for weddings, eveningwear, and racing season.
Our range of fascinators range from simple hair clips to large feather and simamay creations.

Nipple Tassels / Pasties

The pastie was originally created to get around nudity laws. Nipples were therefor covered.
Jennie Lee refined the art making her twirling tassels the highlight of her performance. She was called the "Basoom Girl". However to twirl or wear pasties you don't need to have large breasts. Dita Von Teese wears pasties but doesn't twirl so they can be just decorative!
What to wear with Pasties
Pasties are great teamed up with an underbust corset for waist cinching.
You can attach pasties with eyelash glue or lingerie tape.
How to twirl
To twirl pasties with tassels is not very hard. Its all in the knees! A simple, small and regular paced knee bend in an up and down manner will get it going.

Burlesque Style

Burlesque style encompases a wide range of looks. Corsets, gloves, Fishnet and Fencenet stockings, nipple tassles, and feather accessories.
So many different eras and styles to be inspired by: Victorian, Hollywood golden era glamour, Parisian Can Can and Art Neuvo, Moulin Rouge, Caberet, even 50's and fetish.
Try for a look that is teasing without "giving the farm away" Dita Von Tease describes burlesque as "more tease than slease".

Redheads Rule

I don't know what it is about in this country about "gingers". I had a crush on two ginger boys at school. I have been told that, in regards to me, that it is natures warning sign. If this was the case I wish more people would pay attention to it.
I was out in the sun all day last week and although I tryed to sit in the shade I still got sunburnt. This week my skin is peeling and next week it will be back to its usual pastie white, but that is the joy of being a redhead.

Foot Fantasy

Ok, its a little weird but I don't mind having my toes sucked. But it is a slightly sexual thing. So having my toes sucked by a sexy black 20 year old rather appeals to me. Having a footstool that moves to accomodate my comfort and can get things from the other side of the room is the ultimate in modern luxury.
The only thing is...this footstool likes me to wear fishnet stockings. Fishnets arn't my favourite, I personally like fencenet, they are much more burlesque but I will in order to get a foot massage.

Pedistal

I always love to see my hats and other clothes I sell being worn by people at Pedestal so I generally look forward to meeting customers again and seeing someone look glamorous in my stuff!
There were loads more men than women there and I found it a little daunting. Feeling a bit quiet and not in a dominant mood.

I wore a new Vollers corset. I am now stocking Vollers and am so impressed with the quality and the cut and shape. It really works for me!

Market Weekend

I've added lots of new hats to the range. I get a real buzz when people want my hats and think they are stunning!
I've also looking at getting a studio so I don't have to work from home anymore. I have been talking to the swans in the dock far too much. I think I need to get out and away from home more!
There is a new range of corsets been added to the range. Fabulous Vollers! I particularily like these because they really work your curves. My waist goes in and these corsets accentuate this so it makes the most of my figure such that it is.

I am also planning to have a stall at Camden Canal Market although it will depend on how it goes to begin with.

I have made a few hats now. They have received a lot of positive attention.
