1960's Ruby Red Sequined Burlesque set with matching pasties and tassels. The G-string is lined in Inky Black Satin and the adhesive used to keep the pasties in place can still be seen.

This burlesque set is an example of how costumes especially in burlesque are a form of folk art. Individual to the artist/ performer who makes and wears them. There can never be another one identical to it and that's what makes pieces like these so fascinating!
