Dancing in New Orleans

Dancing in Louisiana-esque heat isn't actually that fun, as the little trails of 'glow' trickling down your back tend to distract you from your dance steps.

Still, despite the unusual heat, and despite rather poor attendance due to poor planning (what silly person forgot and scheduled a dance on the same weekend as the Sevens, One Love, and the Martinborough wine festival? - oh wait, that would be me), we had a marvellous time, and have the photos to prove it.

Learning dances

Lady Caitlyn and the blonde Venus looking gorgeous

Lady Caitlyn wears Carte Blanche, and the blonde Venus wear the Rose corset and skirt.

Mrs C looking fabulously Mucha-esque

Mrs and Mr C - aren't they the sweetest thing!

Lillie Langtry II. Isn't her figure the most amazing thing!

Lillie is wearing this corset, and the skirt from the Dreamstress' Japonisme ensemble

Lady Ornata in her fabulous rose ensemble

Joie de Vivre shows off her burlesque poses

Aren't they too cute!?!

I think they know something I want to know!

So sweet!

I told the blonde Venus to pose like a Spanish dancer














The ladies practice their best Vogue poses.

I just love how these pictures turned out! They are so atmospheric!





We also voted on the next WHCS event, and the winner (by a landslide, though there may have been some vote rigging as somehow there were more ballots than attendees) is Have Tardis Will Travel - a Doctor Who Time Travelling Event.

Watch out for more details on that coming soon!
