Stephanie Diani is a
Los Angeles-based photographer who has produced this wonderful project The Legends of Burlesque.
It features portraits of women who performed burlesque
for many years, often decades, of their lives.
It’s refreshing to see work that explores ageing,
sexuality, and dance in this way.
And to see the juxtaposition of the aged body against
the ‘sexy’ dress of burlesque. By presenting two features we would not expect
to see together, the project challenges our expectations of ageing as well
as our expectations of burlesque.
