Making Costumes
The best burlesque performances seem to be coupled with beautiful, elaborate, and unique costumes. And the best way to get a beautiful, elaborate, and unique costume is to make it. I know a few of the best burlesque performers make their own costumes. Vienna LaRouge makes all of her gorgeous costumes! Jo Boobs posted a picture of herself sewing.
Does this mean you have to be a costume designer to be a burlesque performer? It doesn't hurt to know how to sew. My troupe and I work together on creating costumes. Some of us are good at sewing, some of us are good at glue gunning. Some of us are good at bringing the wine and food to our sewing parties. I'm good at eating pizza. We all use our talents in a collaboration and that works out great for us.
