The Costumes of Burlesque: 1866-2018 is the first volume to inclusively document burlesque costume from its birth in the 1860's through the global burlesque movement in 2018. This lushly illustrated book presents the history and development of this American art form by documenting the origins, influencers, and genuine articles that created its aesthetic. Showcases of legendary performers, including Lydia Thompson, Gypsy Rose Lee, Sally Rand, Bettie Page, Kitten Natividad, and Dita Von Teese, demonstrate costume styles through the years.

This guide gives readers a clear view of how burlesque costume looked and why, and teaches collectors, burlesque performers, and fans alike to recognize vintage pieces for what they are and to design their own costumes with inspiration from the originals. With detailed costume documentation, over 400 images, and interviews with prominent costume designers such as Catherine D'Lish and Garo Sparo, The Costumes of Burlesque brings 150 years of burlesque costume history to life.

Recenzii

"The Costumes of Burlesque: 1866-2018 by Coleen Scott is an exquisite book that fills a long-empty gap in the costume history library….General readers will devour this book for its details and beautiful illustrations. Scholars will appreciate the comprehensive bibliography that will lead burlesque enthusiasts and researchers alike to deepen their knowledge of this American art form."
-Laurie Kurutz, Theatre Design & Technology Fall 2019
"Scott’s text offers a visually and materially exciting overview of the costumes for burlesque; her use of images of extant costume and interviews with performers, designers, and makers of burlesque costume reiterates the significance of costume to cultural studies and performance studies. As such, The Costumes of Burlesque, 1866–2018 offers a valuable contribution to the emergent field of costume studies. Specifically, the book provides a significant visual record for costume makers, who are all too often left in the margins of the field of costume studies."
-Louise Elizabeth Penn Chapman, The Journal of Dress History, Volume 5, Issue 4, Early Autumn 2021
