Amongst other things, she hosts 'A Velvet Affair', a monthly burlesque event and damn she's good! Smart, sassy, witty and sexy. And a favourite with 'The Sartorialist'!
...actually, all the performers (Holly J'Adoll, Tasia, Lulu) were exceptional.
'A Velvet Affair' has recently moved velvet venues and has found a different calibre of performers. Exceptional, talented, suitably dramatic, coquettish, theatrical, sensual women, their beauty secondary to their performance... could have done without the token 'boylesque' though... burlesque is fun, funny, coy but not a joke.
I really have to get the hang of photographing strangers. I think this is a good shot, wasn't allowed to photograph the performers but I did photograph other guests...alas, my attempt at taking 'nonchalant', non posed photos resulted in non usable photos. :(
...that's annoying because I photographed a very cool man called David (partner of one of the performers). Half way through a conversation, turned out that we all knew each other! Big city, small world.
