Burlesque Dancer Glamour

Burlesque made Dita Von Tease a household name and inspired whole fashion ranges and brands with its vintage Burlesque influence. The influence is also evident in the style of modern-day icons like Madonna and Lady Gaga. Traditional Vintage Burlesque is the celebration of the powerfully feminine, visually stunning and graceful art of the striptease. However, if your event is for a family audience or an audience where this wouldn’t be appropriate then a ‘Burlesque Inspired’ dance routine would work beautifully. A fan dance or chair dance combining vintage Burlesque costumes and Burlesque dancer style choreography would be an alluring addition to your event. See our Cabaret Theme Ideas Blog for inspiration!

Some of the most well-loved retro Burlesque dancer routines include the following:

• Balloon-Popping Burlesque dancers

  This Burlesque classic involves a dancer covered in balloons. With an elaborate long feathered hat pin or a smoking cigar, the Burlesque dancer pops the balloons in a super-cute tease routine to great theatrical effect as they dance.

• Chair Dance Burlesque Performers

  This sassy Burlesque dancer act involves a chair as a prop for the performer to spin around. They high kick across and balance and pose upon it in a truly glamorous routine. This is a wonderfully visual show-stopper when performed by a whole line of Burlesque showgirls!

• Fan Dance 1920s Burlesque Performers

  Like elegant birds of paradise with fluttering giant coloured ostrich feather wings and shimmying tail fathers. The Burlesque dancer tantalisingly replaces one fan over another to stunning effect.

Often combining fire skills, pole dance acrobatics and feats of strength. These highly skilled dancers can be both comedic and stylishly elegant.

• Neo-Burlesque or Modern Burlesque Dancers

  This deliciously dark Burlesque is a fabulous Halloween event addition. Taking us to macabre Victorian sideshow type circuses, haunted houses and spooky graveyards. There are many outlandish scenarios these creatures of the night can create. With sexy vampire queens complete with fake blood and super sultry zombie style performers. Gorlesque is sure to steal the show.
