Bombshells costumer XPOSED

Atomic Bombshell and Bombshell costumer, featured on XPOSED

Seattle bloggers/photographers Suzi Pratt an Alex Crick.

Just dishing dirt about the costumery world, and providing memorable quotes like:

"I just don’t think I’ve ever watched a full Calvin Klein or Ralph Lauren runway show in my life. I’m not discrediting what they’re doing, but I’m sitting here in a blue feather thing and sequins with a circle of hair on my head, so what the hell do I know? I know that that’s their idea of great American sportswear, but to me American sportswear is a great snooze fest. God, that’s going to be quoted now..that’s okay, I’ll eat it. [laughs]."

Congratulations all Around!

Oh. My. God.

What a day. The Atomic Bombshells danced in the window of the downtown Betsey Johnson store, and throughout her appearance at the location. Immediately upon arrival, she hopped up in the window and danced to Gaga's Telephone with us.
Le sigh...

She was so gracious and wonderful, telling us how happy she was we could be there.
Oh B, it is us that are thanking you. Thank you for being so innovative, and lovely, and fabulous. It was such an honor to be in your presence.

BLUE MOON CABARET BRINGS BOMBSHELLS TO PAMPAS ROOM

2010-03-23T23:15:00.000-07:00

The Blue Moon Cabaret brings the splendor of The Atomic Bombshells to the Pampas Room stage April 2.

About The Blue Moon Cabaret:

“Coupled with El Gaucho’s culinary excellence, the Blue Moon Cabaret is well worth the vacation from modernity”– Dlist Magazine

“The Blue Moon Cabaret puts ordinary date nights to shame” – Seattle Weekly

“The fanciest Burlesque this city’s ever seen” – The Stranger

“There’s a new feast at El Gaucho – for your eyes” – Seattle PI

About The Atomic Bombshells:

“The city's most dazzling Burlesque troupe...” - Seattle Weekly

“Their slithery choreography is flawless......Don't miss it!” - Seattle Magazine

Miss Indigo Blue has produced another show-stopping, eye-popping, mouth-watering delight to the Blue Moon Cabaret on Friday, April 2, featuring Seattle’s Burlesque Super-Troupe, The Atomic Bombshells. Originally hailing from the sultry swamps of New Orleans, The Atomic Bombshells have taken the international burlesque scene by storm. As original members of the illustrious Shim Sham Revue in the historic French Quarter, these ladies were taught their bumps n' grinds by the original stars of burlesque's Golden Age. Most recently the Bombshells have spread their “gospel of glitter” overseas, performing sold-out events in Amsterdam, Berlin, Portugal, and Shanghai. The Atomic Bombshells are rarely seen in such intimate environments, and this performance is a rare opportunity to relish in their beauty close up. Featured performers include Honey D. Luxe “The Doe-eyed Darling”, Ruby Mimosa “The Island Flower”, Fanny n’Flames “The Burnin’ Angel”, and Artistic Director Kitten La Rue “The Purrrfect Pet”. Crooner Jasper McCann hosts the evening in the Pampas Room.

Admission includes a four-course, set dinner menu with choice of entree. Full bar and wine list available. Tickets vary in price from $100 to $225 per person and are available at El Gaucho, (206) 728-1337.

El Gaucho® is the Northwest's steakhouse legacy focused on elegant, old-school, tableside service for people celebrating their lives. For more information, call (206) 728-1337 or visit www.elgaucho.com.

Last night the Bombshells performed at Washington State University. The crowd was a dream; Rambunctious and Appreciative, complete with glow-stick necklaces (provided by the school to add fun ambiance.) This gal will tell you, there is nothing like looking out over a sea of glow-stick adorned college students with big beaming smiles.

Here, Ruby and Honey enjoy some sandwiches backstage, brought to us by the night's sponsor, Subway. (And right before "Bare Witness to Fitness" no less, how fitting!)

The Loss of Alexander McQueen

2010-02-13T11:20:00.000-08:00

Our Bombshell hearts go out to the family and friends of the great Alexander McQueen. We are saddened by the loss of such a talented genius. His work is legendary, and his creations are a true inspiration. Our costumer for the Lost in Space show, will be paying tribute to the amazing designer, buy incorporating some of the classic McQueen elements within the designs of the show.

Here's a look at some of his most stunning work:

2010: An Innovative Approach

2009-11-13T07:34:00.000-08:00

Style.com recently called the overall look for Spring/Summer 2010 "Cyber Scuba". It seems that many designers are taking a technological and space-age look into fashion's future.

Of course, our favorite for SS 2010 is Alexander McQueen. Ahhh...sigh.

And, we LOVED Joanna Krupa and Derek Hough's Futuristic take on the Paso Doble...
