Oh well, I've been so much away from the internet lately that posts are coming a bit late, but please bear with me! Let's take a little step back on the time machine, to the 20.10. Saturday night.
The night was full of clouds of glitter, seamed stockings, corsets, stunning glamour and wonderful people, in other words burlesque! ♥ Me and Hanna were together on the move again, this time in the dazzling Finnish Burlesque Gala Night that was held in the historical restaurant of Kaisaniemi. We didn't shimmy shimmy shake our booties on the stage, but we did work that night, selling shirts and chatting with the audience. Our cute title for the night was the old time Tobacco girls, and here's our costumes! We did the hats and the mods ourselves, glueing the final details to the last minutes as always. ;) If I ever make preparations perfectly in time, mark my words: it will be a bizarre event..

tired and happy at 3 a.m.! |
Sadly I don't have any pictures of the wonderful-as-always performers since I was mostly working, no time for swaying in the front row with a camera. All the glimpses we got were amazing though, I really love this underworld of glamour, tassels, joy and imagination.
Kisses and hugs for everyone that I met that night, if you're reading this!
