I am interested in dress making, couture fashion and skilled textile work; knitting and embroidery; crime fiction particualry pre-war; cooking, afternoon tea and cake making; buying and selling on ebay; collection obscure art deco stuff; writing and reading (we got ourselves a reader..) clubbing at Torture Garden, Kinki's and other costume heavy venues; making costumes for said nights out; creating huge worlds of the imagination and shoes. I can't spell as I am dyslexic and proud and I can't drive; I have never eaten anything purchased at a MacDonalds; haven't left the UK since I was 21, don't like holidays much but am not adverse to travel, just prefere it to have a purpose and don't have the money or time to do it. I also love film, both obscure european ones with subtitles and a few hollywood offerings, and I collect earrings. I love long walks in the country and gardening, and hate water sports, winter sports, but love dancing and cricket. I love sideways thoughts and things which haven't happened yet and regualr amounts of uncertainty.

About me: PLEASE NOTE - NO MESSAGE NO ADD!!! If you don't message, I won't ad you, so if you haven't been accepted, that's why!(Unless we have met in the real world!)
I am a costume designer and a perfomer and I use my costumes, exotic jewellery and stunning head gear in my Burlesque shows.
I have a number of shows already devised and road tested and am happy to produce new ones for specific events. I offer shows which are elegant and titilating, gently humerous and toungue in cheek and some which are classic, raunchy Burlesque.
My pictures are both from perfomances and of my costumes and jewellery, which I make to order exclusively from my Hertfordshire studio.
My favourite acts and the ones I most regularly perform are:
Peacock Exotic - Beautiful, free-flowing fan dance with peacock feather fans and glittering costume.
Blood and roses - Dark, erotic military inspired strip ending in a blood bath!
Blame it on the bellboy! - Fantastic slapstick comedy routine performed with Lord Flimsha drawing on silent movies and set to 1920's jazz - a total hoot!
Shoo shoo, not Boo hoo - Elegantly sexy and stylish retro number performed in peach satin to a classic 1940's sound track.
Spaced Invaders - Lovin' the alien! Gloriously silly and good fun double act with the wonderful miss Ruby Blues, green body paint, a giant egg and alien girl sex, what more could you want?
Nell Gwyen - in fine 17th centaury costume a performance of a breathtakingly double entendre laden poem in the role of famous courtesan and orange seller 'what all the pubs is named after!'
