The History of Fashion for Burlesque Costuming
Sunday 22nd June
6pm - 9pm
Step back in time with The History of Fashion for Burlesque Costuming — a deep dive into the eras, silhouettes, and style icons that have shaped the glamorous world of the burlesque wardrobe. This 3-hour workshop traces the evolution of fashion from ancient decadence to modern-day stage glamour, with a focus on how historical fashion continues to inspire the extravagant costuming of burlesque.
Through a mix of lecture, visuals, group discussion, and Q&A, we’ll examine how each era’s fashion has influenced the theatricality, sensuality, and craftsmanship of burlesque costuming. Perfect for performers, designers, and costume-curious creatives, this workshop offers both rich historical context and inspiration for building show-stopping looks.
