From blushing bride to burlesque beauty…


Hen party: Polestars Burlesque

Make like a true sex kitten at your very own burlesque-themed hen party.

For a hen celebration you’ll never forget, try your hand at burlesque – we can be sure your groom will approve!

Burlesque was all the rage back in the nineteenth century, and recently thanks to the showgirl antics of pin-ups like Dita Von Teese and Immodesty Blaize, there has been a great burlesque comeback in cabaret clubs up and down the country.

And it’s not all about stripping. According to Polestars, the largest alternative fitness school in the world, burlesque is a complete way of life, and they’ve put together the Ten Commandments that’ll help transform any wide-eyed bride-to-be into simmering shimmying sex kitten:

1. Thou shall always have perfectly styled hair, manicured nails and flawless make up.
2. Thou shall celebrate thy figure – thou shall not disguise but always accentuate.
3. Thou shall have a personal mantra that thou shall repeat to thyself each day (e.g. ‘I am a sexual dominatrix!’ or ‘I am a unique beauty’).
4. Thou shall always wiggle when walking – thou should walk like a star; with poise, grace and confidence.
5. Thou shall always wear stockings (never tights) and well-fitted sexy underwear.
6. Thou shall dress to perfection everyday.
7. Thou must be able to walk in towering high heels!
8. Thou shall have a signature burlesque prop (like Dita’s Martini Glass).
9. Thou shall be polite, charming, elegant and confident at all times.
10. Thou shall learn the art of nipple tassle twirling.

Now you know the rules, get a taste of the action by signing yourself and your closest friends up to a special burlesque-themed hen party hosted where Polestars will transform you all into a fabulous burlesque troupe for the day.

Not only will you tone up so you’ll look even better in your wedding dress, you’ll be able to put all you’ve learned to good use on the honeymoon
