Cabaret Rouge - Photography by Craig Swatton
Burlesque performers and performance artists have some of the best stage

Dita Von Teese Cannes 2007 - Image: Mireille Ampilhac Wikipedia
We love everything about Dita von Teese. She is not only a burlesque icon but also
a fierce fashionista, a fabulous model and a beauty guru! The uber glamorous ‘Queen

and style.
