Plus Size Burlesque Costumes

If you are a big, beautiful and sexy lady; get one of our plus size burlesque costumes and enjoy your Halloween celebration, a Mardi Gras bash of whichever other special occasion you will be wearing it for.

Are you considering a sizzling, sassy Halloween costume this year? Yeah, not those rinky-dink, low quality ones. How about a costume that looks authentic, this time around? Put together quality materials with some flirty flair and you’ll be in business this Halloween. You want something hot that will hug your shapely body, but don’t know what to look for to dress up as? Costume shopping can be more difficult than clothing shopping, so it’s totally understandable.

If you want to sex it up, you can choose a traditional costume like the Angel or corresponding counterpart, the Devil. Those tend to keep the men ogling. But, then there are the costumes that really make them drool: the Mermaid, the Hawaiian dancer and the Cave Woman. Take your pick and you’ll be sporting a pretty revealing costume. If you’re a full-figured gal, this particular type of costume may not be the sort you’re looking for. Doesn’t mean you can’t be hot to trot though.

If you really want to sizzle without feeling like you’re baring it all, how about showing your sexy side in one of our plus size Burlesque costumes? Imagine yourself dressed as a beautiful yet seductive Burlesque Babe. A light pink naughty bustier with long tail skirt in the back and a short black skirt in the front, paired with some hot fishnets or other designer stockings, along with some sexy black heels – you just can’t go wrong. Flourish your femininity with any of our sultry plus size Burlesque Halloween costumes.

Are you ready to bring out that provocative side of you in sweet, sultry style? With our plus size Burlesque ensemble you’ll display your flirty side in fashionable taste. Start with a draping layered skirt in the rear made from black organza featuring matching satin pink trim and a pink velvet bodice adorned with black polka-dot mesh (lace-like) along the sides and chest as well as a few dainty black bows running down the center.

The collar line sits off the shoulders and the delicate rouched black organza sleeves give the costume a more sensual touch. Plus, there’s a hint of ruffle along the top ridge of the bustier for simple added seduction. The costume comes complete with tap shorts, vertical striped stockings, fingerless black gloves and a mini-top hat with pink ribbon and corresponding pink feather embellishment. Simply select some black baby doll spiked heels or a set of sexy boots to complete the attire.

This costume is made from nylon and polyester and should only be dry cleaned. Machine washing and/or drying could damage the integrity of the costume. It is strongly encouraged to dry clean this piece.

The plus size Burlesque costume is available in sizes 2 and 3X. So ladies of the 14 to 20 dress size persuasion can show off their curves in a fashionable yet sexy, sultry piece. You might want to consider some sparkly eye shadow too and a set of long faux eyelashes to really bring out your Bordeaux character.

As a matter of fact Sasha Bordeaux who is a fictional character in the DC Universe would make a great Burlesque costume or a female martial artist Halloween costume, especially since she is so closely associated with Batman and Checkmate.

As if that is not for credentials, Sasha Bordeaux was created by Greg Rucka and Shawn Martinbrough and she appeared for the first time in Detective Comics #751.

Burlesque Showgirl Costume

Show them all what you’ve got with a sexy burlesque showgirl costume and watch them all glare with jealousy.

That’s right you can totally sex it up with your costume selection this year. The best way to do this though is to stay away from those costume sore spots. You know the ones that trickle into the stores for the season but are really flimsy, don’t fit well, tend to be itchy, and generally make you sweat a lot too. Yeah, try a real costume this time around.

Picture a cherry red corset with black skirt (draped fantastically in the rear), complete with red taffeta ruffle along the edge. Your hot little body squeezed into that, with a red and black organza, off the shoulder collar line giving the crowd just a little taste of the Moulin dancer in you. Furthermore, the bustier incorporates silver embroidery along the collar line and black organza ruffle along the edge. Never have you looked so stunning!

I’ve made mention of cabaret costumes as part of the overall burlesque costumes arena, so it’s only fair that I tell you a little about it as well.

Much like burlesque, cabaret is also a form of entertainment which includes comedy, song, dance, and theatric performance. For the most part, cabarets are performed in non-theatrical settings such as restaurants and nightclubs with an MC (master of ceremonies) introducing each act. In contrast, cabaret is also a Mediterranean brothel where its performing girls also mingle with the male audiences.

The first known cabaret was founded in 1881 in Paris, France but they quickly spread throughout Europe and the United States.

In more recent years “burlesque” has been closely associated with unsavory striptease acts. In its heyday, however, burlesque was a family oriented source of theatrical experience of music, song, dance and comedy which lasted between the 1840s and the 1960s.

Although its performers were immodestly dressed in comparison to the fashion of the era and although their comedy and songs somewhat diverted from the norm, burlesque was still considered the entertainment of intellectual respectability.

Burlesque was also the building block on which variety shows were eventually build and it played a significant role in the placement of women in theater as well as the American society at large.

Burlesque Dancer Costume

A sizzling hot burlesque dancer costume is the way to go this year.  So don’t sell yourself short with some other costume!

Alright folks, if you haven’t been paying attention, Halloween is coming up and it’s coming up quickly. It’s always fun to dress up the kiddies, but what about you, the adult?

It’s time to show off your figure and some of your naughty side. But where do you get an affordable costume that’s not cheaply made? Year-round costume retailers generally carry quality costumes. Sometimes they can be quite pricy though. You can also shop online and get your costume shipped in just a few days.

Make sure when you’re shopping on the web though, that you thoroughly look at the images of the costume. Aside from taking a gander at the pictures, read the details and specs. too. Pay attention specifically to the materials used in the manufacture of the piece. Also, keep tabs on the accessories featured with the costume. Some may come with the product, but it may not contain them all. It sucks to buy something expecting an entire package, just to find out you still need to add more accessories to complete the costume.

Besides that though, Halloween really isn’t the holiday to break the bank either. A quality costume can cost a pretty penny in some places, but there are very affordable ones available too. Just take a bit of time to shop around online and you’ll see. But, if you’re strapped for time, consider our Burlesque Dancer costume!

Accessories that come along with the costume include a fan, choker and hair piece. They add the finishing touches to the outfit. The hair clip is a red rose adorned with various matching ribbons dangling in their exoticness. Some additional pieces you may want to include to really take the costume to the next level though are long black satin gloves, a double layer black petticoat to enhance the dress skirting, jet black hosiery (go with silk if possible as they not only look nicer, but they feel fantastic and hold up better than nylon stockings) and some sexy black heels. If you prefer, select fishnet stockings instead. Both types of hosiery look fantastic with the costume.

The costume is 100% polyester so it’s really easy to clean. Just send it off to the dry cleaners. Don’t machine wash or dry though because you could potentially damage the dress.

OK, now that we’ve taken a closer look at sexy burlesque Halloween costumes, let us review their origins.

The word “burlesque” may have come from the Latin, the French, the Italian or the Spanish languages but no one seems to be certain of it. “Burlesque” literally means “trifle.” Most historians, however, agree that “burlesque” is directly traceable to folk poetry and the theater.

In the 20th century U.S.A., it has come to refer to variety show where striptease is included. So, although beautiful and sexy, burlesque dancer have been considered unwholesome performers who wear provocative clothing which also often comes off on stage.
