Drag and burlesque are ancient art forms that have evolved over time to become powerful means of personal expression and social critique. In these performances, erotic lingerie is often used as a transformative tool, allowing artists to play with notions of gender, sexuality and power.
In the world of drag, performers often use extravagant and provocative outfits to embody exuberant characters. Lingerie is a key element of these outfits, allowing artists to play with codes of femininity and masculinity and create unique characters.
In burlesque, erotic lingerie is at the heart of the performance. Performers use corsets, fishnet stockings, garter belts and other suggestive lingerie to create sensual numbers such as nippies.
Beyond aesthetics and performance, the use of erotic lingerie in these shows is also a political act. By deliberately exposing their bodies and reclaiming their sexuality, drag and burlesque performers defy the norms that seek to control and repress the female and queer body.

The use of erotic lingerie in drag and burlesque shows is an act of courage and resistance. It's an affirmation of self, a celebration of diversity and individual beauty.
Stage lingerie has an importance far beyond its purely aesthetic aspect in drag and burlesque shows. It represents a powerful symbol of courage and resistance, where each carefully chosen piece becomes a bold statement of the wearer's identity and beauty.
Brands such as Undress Code, Kaimin and Crystal Eyez play an essential role in this self-expression, offering unique and provocative designs that allow each artist to feel fully authentic on stage. These shows thus become spaces for celebrating diversity in all its forms, where lingerie becomes an instrument of liberation and emancipation.
