Burlesque performer Chiqui Love models her designs that she’ll have for sale at the Stripper Wear Fair on Saturday.
This weekend – Valentine’s weekend – do something special for yourself and that significant other at one (or all) of three super sexy events hosted by the East London Strippers Collective at Red Gallery in Shoreditch.
There’ll be a chance to learn how to twerk it like a pro pole dancer, shop till you drop low to the flo’ for stripper wear, and to admire the artistic stylings of performers dancing in tribute to David Bowie.

Sexy Pole Werkshops
Sunday 14 February, 1pm to 6pm, £18 per person per class
This class will focus not only on how to do pole moves, but to put them together for a sexy performance. Looking at combos and transitions, sexing them up and getting into the flow. There will be a floor work section to give you different moves to add into your routines.
ELSC aims to promote the self-organisation of strippers/lapdancers in London and the UK, and to challenge societal attitudes towards stripclub activity by uniting performers, creating their own working conditions and empowering dancers.
