Salutations and celebrations to our American pals on their most wonderful of firework filled days! Happy 4th of July!
Happy 4th of July
First of all, we have some much love for this burlesque costume worn by Aurora Galore. It has even been seen in our Burlexe burlesque shows with A Taste of Burlexe.

Second of all, happy 4th of July to all you American followers of our show and blog! To celebrate we have another little something that is not to be missed.
Check out New York burlesque superstar Miss Dirty Martini and her patriotic performance below. She wears the stars stripes and then strips them off. In typical tongue in cheek style, Dirty Martini shows her patriotism with a little satire to boot.
Burlexe is a sensational London burlesque show inspired by the women who created the genre and perform the art. It fuses burlesque performance with storytelling, dancing with acting.
We love a party as much as the next person and having a happy 4th of July is one of the most OTT around. Love it.
