MOVIE STYLE: CHRISTINA AGUILERA IN BURLESQUE

1. Let's start with the the title, Burlesque, if we do a little search for the meaning of the word, we find:

   
   

   1- a performance or piece of writing that makes something funny by repeating or performing it in a silly way

   2- a type of performance or entertainment that involves jokes, songs and usually stripers.

                                                        

   

   
   

   Then the story:

   Christina plays Ali, a small-town girl who moves to L.A. to pursue her dreams of fame and fortune. Once there, she discovers the Burlesque Lounge, where she works as a waitress then breaks into song and proves what a star she is, becoming the City's headline act.

   
   

   And lastly but most importantly, the styling:

   The costumes, worn by Christina Aguilera were designed by Michael Kaplan (an American movie costume designer, best known for his work on Fight Club, Mr & Mrs Smith, Pearl Harbor, Gigli & more..) are made from everything including feathers, leather, pearls, gold coins and Swarovski crystals... Even the burlesque club's curtains were made up of 80.000 crystals weighting 1.3 tonnes. 
   

   
   

   
   

   Christina wears this revealing string pearl costume for the song 'Guy What Takes His Time' when she does a risque fan dance and titillating striptease.

   

   
   

   

   
   

   
   

   This beautiful form-fitting green dress was worn by Christina Aguilera for the ballad 'Bound to You'.

   
   

   

   
   

   

   

   
   

   
   

   The third eye-catching costume on display, a Swarovski-encrusted corset, was worn for the song 'But I Am a Good Girl'

   

   
   

   
   

   And in the movie's finale, Aguilera was dressed in a short golden number that was hand-made by linking gold coins and crystals together. 

   

   
   

   
   

   Christina's standout Christian Louboutin shoes were custom made:

   I loved the movie & I looooooooooooved the soundtrack even more; we really missed Christina Aguilera's voice! (I can't stand Cher's voice though :D)
