Even more burlesque beauties
March 23, 2007 by Danae
After we finished our big article about how to wear nipple tassels, we couldn’t stop finding even more beautiful burlesque pieces — here’s a roundup of even more amazing lovelies that can help you achieve the burlesque look:
Angels Carrying Savage Weapons

What does “Angels Carrying Savage Weapons” mean to you? Until about an hour ago, we thought it meant, well, something kinda weird. Now we know it’s the name of a fantastic corsetry label, who produce Victorian-pattern corsets with a saucy 40′s twist. Their handmade corsets include rich, sophisticated designs like “Marilyn (£269),” and bolder, sexier designs like “Roxanne” (£180, pictured above left).
Not just corsets, but matching skirts!
We really really love the clothes Angelic Weapons make to help you complete the look — this “Jezebel” skirt (£70, also pictured above left) is simply stunning and would complete any come-into-my-parlour look. You can check out all the matching skirts and bloomers, and don’t miss the hats as well!
La Magia

We heard about Angelic Weapons (that’s their short name) from La Magia, a new (to us) lingerie retailer who has a great collection of more hard-to-find lingerie brands. Their collections include Made by Niki, What Katie Did, Velda Lauder, and many more amazing corsetiers and retro-inspired designers. If yesterday’s article inspired you to dive into the decadent world of burlesque, this site is an essential first stop. They’ve got corsets at some pretty reasonable prices, including this stunning black number at £99 (pictured above) that is oh-so Dita von Teese.
La Magia is based in the UK, but they offer free worldwide shipping for eager international readers as well. There are so many lovelies at this site we can’t feature them all, so you’ll have to check out the whole selection for yourself.

Finally, here’s a sneaky peek at Ophelia Fancy’s new Autumn/Winter 07 collection, Sweet Chalet. We are totally loving the naughty-beach-holiday look, and can’t wait to see the rest of the collection!
