Burlesque Costumes?

[hawaiianorangetree]

Does anyone know where to get a reasonably priced burlesque costume online? I have searched a little but didn't come up with much.

My friend has decided to have a burlesque themed hens night and is having someone come out and teach us a few moves! She would love for us to dress up and while it isn't until march next year but i thought i would get a head start while the Aussie $$ is still good!


TIA

I'm not sure what your looking to wear or looking to spend, but I found my halloween costume on etsy last year and it was awesome. I also recommend searching ebay because they have tons of stuff on there as well. Sounds fun though!

Do you mean old-school theme type burlesque (ie DitaVonteese) , or maybe the feather boa type burlesque? If you want the first, Fredericks of hollywood sells a few different things, as do a few costume stores/halloween costume stores. If you want the second, I would grab a feather boa ( you can find one at spencers, or FH, maybe halloween stores), some fishnets with the line in the back, along with some red lipstick. For either, if you a have a corset, that would do fine,especially if its a black one. I have to say, that sounds like on heck of a hens night, lucky ladies! Have fun!
