So when I was out on the road I lost my beautiful Union Western mask. So when I returned home, I got a hold of them right away and asked them to make me a new one.
I love this one even more than the first one, the chain stitching is insane! It comes alive so much!

Many moons ago, in Chicago, I met Jeez Louise, a Chicago cabaret legend and the number one burlesque figure in the world.
Literally Jeez Louise won that title!....

This is one of the sweetest lots of burlesque costumes I’ve ever purchased.
Check out the details on these two 1950’s headdresses on our beautiful model Honey Cocoa. Both front and back of these headdresses are impeccable. This is important for an artist because the back view matters a...

Since I’ve been home in PR I have been researching this set of costumes I purchased years ago.
I was at a total loss. I had reached out to every stripper and striptease historian that I thought might have an answer. Nothing... for years nothing. Until now!

During our downtime, we've been going through some old photos and finding images we haven't posted yet.
These are from last year in La Parguera in Puerto Rico. It is one of my favorite places on the island.

This is one of Lynn O’Neill’s original posters (from my personal collection) that would have been set up before and after her live stage performance.
O’Neill’s mother would’ve displayed it on an easel at her “original garter girl” stand and probably would’ve been the one ha...

In my searching I have come across quite a bit of Lynn O’Neill memorabilia. She was such a popular model and performer and very active on the circuit so there are more remnants of her memory than of many other performers.
Here are just a few of the pieces I have picked up along my way. Y...

This is pretty cool on two levels. I kn...
