The lovely owner Robin and her fabulous mom hosted the most amazing event!  They even coined a new drink, the Dirty-Doll-Tini (recipe below).  While enjoying these delightful cocktails, guests were treated to bra fittings and samples of the delightful products from The Botanical Collection. The Dolls also launched their new line of bridal underpinnings at this event.  The guests could not wait to try on the lingerie. And once they’d been fit in their Dirty Dolls bras, they burst out of the dressing rooms to model!

Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend 2009

Monday, June 15th, 2009

Wow, The Dolls had quite a weekend!  Our Vegas trip was full of burlesque, glitter, glamour, and even weddings!  This was our first time as a vendor at the Burlesque Hall of Fame’s Miss Exotic World Show. Fortunately it wasn’t all work, us Dolls got to play too.  After our first day of vending at the burlesque bazaar, we were treated to a show that wasn’t just fabulous, but also a part of history.  The Friday night show was full of burlesque legends from years past.  These performers truly dazzled and entertained us.  Performances included go-go dancing by Viva LeFever, singing by Candy Caramelo, the magic of Dusty Summers, Satan’s Angel’s sauciness, and the adorable April March. These are just a handful of the legends who performed. Check out this link for a full listing http://www.burlesquehall.com. Some of the Reigning Queens of Burlesque also took to the stage. The line up included Immodesty Blaze, Catherine D’Lish, Dirty Martini and Michelle L’amour to name a few. Much to our surprise, Michelle L’amour’s act turned into a wedding right before our teary eyes. There sure was a lot of mascara running in the audience, as we all witnessed the couple’s beautiful love on the stage.  What a great way to start our weekend!

Saturday night was the big competition, and of course we were blown away by all of the marvelous performers. The night was full of classic burlesque routines, rock inspired acts, and even aerial performances! The costumes were dazzling, and talent filled the venue.  The beautiful Angie Pontani, the Reigning Queen of Burlesque 2008, and a recent Dirty Dolls model performed her farewell act.  She exuded beauty, glamour and grace with her toe shoe performance.  Congratulations to all the winners and performers. They all really rocked it!

We have only named a fraction of the many incredible performers from the weekend.  Be sure to check out the Burlesque Hall of Fame website for more info, and to read about all of the amazing performers!

Thank you to everyone at the Burlesque Hall of Fame for having us as a vendor!  It was a weekend that The Dolls will not forget.  We met so many fabulous people at our booth. We can’t wait to go back next year!

Finally, congratulations to It’s a little Stormy and Magic Max, who were also wed this weekend!

The Dirty Dolls Storm York, PA

Friday, February 13th, 2009

Mama Doll decided to host a lingerie party for her friends and colleagues, all of whom claimed to be in desperate need of new brassieres. So the Dolls took a midnight road trip out to York, Pennsylvania, in order to please these busty customers. Mama Doll really went all out with the hors d’oeuvres and wine, and she represented by wearing her After Midnight Smooth Moves Brassiere under a neckline that showed just the right amount of lace.

The turnout for the party was tremendous, and The Dolls were a bit overwhelmed by the number of tas-tas that needed to be fit. But there was a job to be done, so The Dolls put on some smooth jazz and got down to business!

After hours of fitting, hoisting, pulling, and nudging things into place, The Dolls knew their job was done.  It was especially rewarding to see clients leave the fittings proudly donning their new brassieres. The ladies had no bones about lifting up their shirts to show their friends the great brassieres they’d just purchased – let’s hear it for self-confidence! The Peek-a-Boo Camisole Brassiere finally had it’s moment in the spotlight, as almost all the ladies recognized the style’s versatility.

One lovely client even commented that The Dolls “made her feel pretty again.” Those words brought tears to our eyes—that’s our entire mission, in a nutshell!. Another partygoer was glad that she got some of our bras “before we went Oprah.” Um, Oprah? Can you hear us? We are here for you!

When The Dolls finally headed back to their homebase in New York, they did so with hearts wildly aflutter, ecstatic at having outfitted the great ladies of York. The Dolls now smile every time they think of those ladies down in southern Pennsylvania, wearing their glamorous Dirty Dolls Lingerie. Glad we could help!

Dirty Dolls Love Long Island City!!

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

The Dirty Dolls duo was recently invited to host a lingerie party at the beautiful home of Cynthia “The Hostess with the Most-ess” Weisberg in Long Island City. Her potluck party was a hit, and so, too, was Dirty Dolls Lingerie! The ladies were so excited about their new lingerie that they opted to shed their old brassieres and wear their DD’s home to show their boyfriends. We received word the next day that those boys were very grateful! One fabulous party-goer commented that Dirty Dolls’ Curvaceous Cleavage Bra defied gravity, as she had never seen her “girls” hoisted so high!
Thanks, Cynthia! We love that you both support and “get support” from Dirty Dolls Lingerie.

Crazy Truckin’ Dolls!!

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

In an attempt to save money, The Dolls decided that it would be a good idea to truck it out to the warehouses of Jersey–South Kearny, to be exact. Apparently, this town is sort of the Ellis Island of lingerie. The poor Dolls sat in the detention center for hours waiting for their importation documents to be settled. As they neared desperation, the Dolls even considered putting on a burlesque act for the other truckers and warehouse employees. However, just in the nick of time, their name was called. And how The Dolls cheered! But their mood quickly darkened as they realized that they had 2,000 pounds of lingerie to load into their rented truck. Their only option was to smile and bat their lashes at the warehouse staff, who melted at the sight. All of the sudden, a gaggle of men with forklifts and weight-support belts came to The Dolls’ assistance—who said chivalry was dead? Alas, once The Dolls’ got their long-awaited lingerie back to their NYC stomping grounds, there were no burly men waiting to unload those 2,000 pounds worth of bras, panties, and shapers—they had to hike up their sleeves and do it all themselves! And so the DD duo has developed a deep respect for those engaged in the trucking life. Fellow truckers, we salute you!
