The History of Fashion for Burlesque Costuming

Sunday 18th May
3pm - 6pm

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.

Come for the history, stay for the sparkle—and bring a notebook if you like to jot down inspiration!
