Show me how you Burlesque!

Burlesque 4

People love burlesque today because it incorporates all the old-school glamour, satire and highlights the female form – it’s something that many women can actually see themselves doing.

Burlesque 5

TUNES

Burlesque, is a form of performing art that reaches back to at least the 1860s in the US. Presented in cabarets, theaters and some other location, burlesque was mostly presented by women. Colorful and laborious costumes as well as mood appropriate music and dramatic lightning, sometimes even fire breathingΒ  were part of many burlesque shows. The goal was not to totally strip down, more to just take of certain clothing like gloves and stockings, which sometimes spoke louder as a common striptease.

Burlesque lost it’s popularity towards the simple strip in the 1920/30s, but in it was never totally gone and got back some popularity way later with Hollywood productions and several organisations and clubs that try to keep the burlesque feeling and lifestyle alive. It was often called New-Burlesque or Neo-Burlesque and the 90s brought a huge comeback of the whole idea. In 2010 the movie Burlesque,with Christina Aguliera and Cher, this new way of a more modern burlesque feeling was shown in an amazing way. Dita von Teese is probably the most popular burlesque dancer nowadays and with all her productions, performances, products and marketing she is an amazing and valuable asset of the Neo-Burlesque movement.

Burlesque 1

Certainly hat was just a very short information about Burlesque and I could go on for hours to talk more about it as I personally really do like the idea of a burlesque lifestyle, but I will safe you from that and just move on to my todays post πŸ˜‰

The reason why I came across Burlesque again, was the actual round of the GENRE event. It is the first time that we got invited with wicca’s Wardrobe to be part and then right there the theme Burlesque.. you can imagine howΒ  much I smiled all over when I saw that.

The GENRE event aims for items, that are not more expensive than 100 L$. We made the amazing “Fleur” boots for the event and set each of the 12 colors for 99 L$. The idea behind the boots were to give some old-fashioned, victorian themed Burlesque boots a little modern twist in shape and colors πŸ˜‰

Burlesque 7

When we set up the event I found so many other incredible designs that I could not resist to grab some and do pictures with all of them. The amazing fitting “Versailles Fall” corset with the amazing frills around your hips comes from Honey Bender for ber new original mesh label BENDER. The corset itself is an applier for the mesh body, what underlines every woman’s body shape in a very true way πŸ˜‰ The beautiful frills that surround the hips come in different sizes to make sure they fit your curves.

Burlesque 2

The lovely accessories, the adorable collar and the awesome realistic cigarette, I found as well at the GENRE event. It was just amazing how all the parts feel together in one without overthinking it too much ;).

For the set I used the entire “Belle Rouge” collection from [noctis] – even that used lingerie which hangs down from the chandlier and lies on the couch and the floor came with the set. The chair I am posing on was made by [BlackTulip] and for the other pictures I used poses from the “Teese Me” set made by {Nantra}. Everything besides the head, body and hair in this post comes from GENRE, so you better hurry to make your way over there and see what else is there. There are many more than the few I was able to use for my post :p

Le Enfant Terrible – Vintage Bunny Puppet

Bunny 1

Finally I have time to do another post!

All the Christmas horror kept me away from all the blogging fun for way too long. But now a few days before Christmas I am nearly done with all the students concerts and kids musicals for this year – for thank god!

7 days to go and I finally will have holidays!

Bunny 4

Today I would like to spotlight one of the latest releases from LeEnfant Terrible, owner and designer of Enfant Terrible and a wonderful friend.

The “L’odeur du cuir” what means ‘the smell of leather’ is a full set of amazing items all made of leather. A wonderful corset with a huge color HUD, the super cute bunny mask in black & white, the incredible necklace with the long leather straps down the cleavage, an elegant bracelet and a sweet leg band with tiny little accessories, every girl needs,Β  in black, white & pink.

Β Bunny 5

The incredible details of this set, show the love for every little thing, that LeEnfant Terrible puts in all her designs. You can nearly feel the hours and days, that she must have spent on those designs. If you just take a look at the leg band – for today’s post I chose the black one – with the tiny little brush, the eyeliner, the amazing filigree chains and all those realistic looking creations… simply stunning!

Bunny 3

The “L’odeur du cuir” set immediately brought me to a vintage mood, when I put it on the first time. I added a bra, we made for Wicca’s Wardrobe, wich will be released soon and a fishnet panty hose.

The puppet hanger I saw, when I was walking a show and a real good friend was wearing it so I had to have it! Thank you Xandrah for sharing where you got them from πŸ˜‰

Last but not least I would like to drag your focus on the amazing sweet ankle boots made by Elysium.

Bunny 6

The incredible “London Ankle Boots” from Elysium come with a HUD, to change the fur options on the top. With the amazing suede fabric and the filigree lines that end in such a sweet box at the upper side, those shoes are perfect for the actual season πŸ™‚

Circus! – Faster Pussycat meets Machoire

Circus 1

I have no clue how this idea was born…

That was one of the moments when you go over your wardrobe and try to find some inspiration πŸ˜‰

I wanted to do something special for the new “Ganta Heels” from Machoire.

The heels are not only shoes, they are an art piece, so they needed something extraordinary. What could be for such an idea the something from Faster Pussycat!

I saw the “Hydra” outfit during the popstars show at the 24 event last weekend and fell immediately in love with it, A corset paired with a two-part harness and those exciting, wild horn parts covering the waits and chest. There is as well a headpiece matching to them, which I did not use for today’s pictures.

Circus 2

The beautiful and strong-looking tattoo is one of the newest releases from White Widow.Β  Julie Hastings made this one as her contribution to the ‘anyBODY – for applier lovers‘ event.

The while look had kinda a burlesque or even vintage circus feeling and so I was trying to make some pictures in that direction. The poses certainly had to be different for that too as I wanted to highlight the whole look. It is not always easy to drag the focus on shoes if you want to showcase the outfit as well πŸ˜‰

The amazing, cool hair was made by Mirja Mills, owner and designer of EMO-tions.

I have a weakness for circus themes anyways especially the more vintage ones, so this pictures really were a lot of fun πŸ™‚

“Showgirl”

Today I would like to pull the focus on Faster Pussycat again. Honey Bender, owner and designer of Faster Pussycat, always stood for outstanding and extravagant fashion for me. I personally know her for a long time and I always adored her creativity and how she designs outside the box but still fashionable. The more I am happyΒ  to have some of her creations again to blog πŸ™‚

For this post we have the “Showgirl” outfit. A wonderful red combination of a high-waisted skirt and the little hearts at the cheat that allow a kinda topless sexy look that still has covered what it needs to πŸ™‚ The cute little hat as well comes with the whole outfit. The “Showgirl” really kinda gets you the feeling of a vintage cabaret or even a burlesque touch comes up with it. The huge white roses necklace with the pearls round the neck are a wonderful addition to make this look complete.

For the shoes, I decided to wear one of the latest releases from [sys]. The “Vogue” ankle boots in black. The red version I had earlier this week on my blog already. The black version as well is made of fantastic made leather and the awesome silver steel plate heel. The black version does not have the huge spikes, instead you have this squared silver parts that decorate the front of the booties.

For the hair I chose on one the latest releases by Urban Lutz called “Yula” the touch of vintage paired with a modern look really made the finish for this style today πŸ™‚

To see all of the incredible designs of Honey Bender, you better make your way to the Faster Pussycat Mainstore πŸ™‚

Wicca’s Wardrobe: Burlesque

Today I would like to tellΒ  little story again that this pictures, made by Daron Brandeis, have attached. The first picture, was the entry for the BOSL covercontest and was choosen into the Top 5 on Frolic Mills flickr stream. Sadly it did not make the cover but never the less it really was fun πŸ™‚

I already blogged more then once the great new corset brand NV Corsetry. Their corsets are really amazing and I felt really honored as I was chosen to be part of the BOSL fashion spread of NV Corsetry. I already blogged many different styles with the corsets of NV Corsetry and for sure the burlesque theme was kinda bullseye for a styling with those corsets. In the burlesque aera, corsets were very popular and you could not think any styling without them nearly. I would like to showcase the stylings I made for the BOSL fashion spread, as I really had fun doing them and it shows another possibility for wearing the amazing corsets from NV Corsetry.

For the first look I got the “Ordained” corset and the short body from NV Corsetry and for the rest of the look I had my freedom to choose what I wanted, according to the challenge to create a burlesque outfit. I roamed through google and saw different pictures of amazing burlesque stylings, but one got stuck in my mind. It was a relativly modern picture but the girl had combined fishnet tights with cool boots and a litte hat. I remembered the “Rosenkavalier” hat from Rozoregalia and it matched perfect to what I wanted to go for. Fishnet tights I found on marketplace and for sure feathers and the long cigarette holder could not be missing. Them I found at !dM deviousBeauty out of their ‘Fetish Cabaret’ collection. I like the little details so I added one of those velvet chokers I saw on so many pics with the little rose in the front and the gloves of the Betty outfit from Angel Dessous. The awesome “Burlesque” boots, made by [GOS] made the perfect finish for Look No. 1 πŸ™‚

Look No. 2 was not that easy as the “Wrath” outfit from NV Corsetry comes with a long black latex suit. Latex was not that popular and known in the times of the burlesque aera. So I had to think harder for this look to make it work. First I slipped into my red BAX ankle boots. as red and black was used often for burlesque in the past. Then I made my way back to !dm deviousBeauty and took another look on their ‘Fetish Cabaret’ line. I found one outfit that had interesting huge red feathers for the hips, waist and head and as well a red feather boa that came with matching poses to wear it. The black “Wisper” boa I took from Miamai out of the ‘inMutatio’ collection. The 2 huge black fans were provided by Maya Paris.

I hope you liked my little trip into the burlesque aera πŸ™‚

I would like to thank Sazzy Nirpaw for building the amazing burlesque set and modeling in pic 1 and Daron Brandeis for his great idea and the amazing pictures and as well modeling in pic 1 :p

Angel Dessous – New Black Couture Line!!!

Lately Angel Dessous released a new Black Line with 3 wonderful outfits in black red and white. Today I would like to show you 2 of them in black. Lets start with the “Chess” outfit, that as well can be seen in the first picture.

“Chess” is an awesome knee-long dress, shoulder free with an amazing prim attachment. The dress it self on the first view looks very simple but as well it shows the elegance of simplicity. πŸ™‚ With “Chess” you are definitely dressed right for every party or event. It is the “little black” that can be worn always and for everything πŸ™‚ I added the new “Berry Blossom” set made by Finesmith Designs, the “Painter” fingernails as well from Finesmith and the “Sakura Boudoir” hat from the Boudoir hat collection.

The hair comes from Baiastice and is called “Fujiko”. The wonderful matching eye ornament was made by Talyia Tarber for her store Garded Secret.

My second outfit for today of the new Angel Dessous Black Line is named “Devine” and for this blog I chose the black version. “Devine” you can as well purchase in the blood version. This outfit has 2 possibilities to wear. one with a laced jacked and one without πŸ™‚ I decided to wear it without for that blog post πŸ™‚

The short dress has really an awesome couture touch with the awesome edgy attachments like the skirt and the shoulder parts/ neck part. The great corset that ends under the chest adds a very sexy touch as well. To hide my private parts and keep it PG for the blog post I took skull pasties made by Redclaw Inshan , designer of R:A:D. The sweet wrist ruffles usually are thought as an addition for the sheer jacket version but I could not go around to use them nevertheless for the short version as well. πŸ˜‰ For jewelry I decided again – for sure πŸ˜‰ – on Finesmith Designs. yula Finesmith lately created a wonderful set named “Giz” that comes with a necklace and a wonderful pair of earrings.

The incredible face mask that I liked so much for this styling as it matches the edgy prim parts comes from DE Designs and is called “Maiden Face Mask” and the hairstylist for this styling was Bliss Couture πŸ™‚ For skin and make up I stuck to my long time favourite Glam Affair πŸ™‚
