K'Danse - Hoop Skirt Cancan 1




The French dance group, K'Danse, performs a really fine hoop skirt cancan. Ever since I saw a hoop-skirted performance in a prior video (http://clubccd.multiply.com/video/item/3/Hoop-Skirt-Cancan-), I've wanted to see more. The hoop skirts allow for some interesting skirt flipping maneuvers that are more difficult to achieve wth a regular skirt. The white lace-trimmed bloomers the dancers wear complement the look.

The video is divided into three parts due to Multiply's size restrictions.

The Benny Hill Show - Eurovision Song Contest



Nothing else Benny did can touch the Benito's sketch.  But you might find the hoop skirt antics at 45:20 amusing.  Parody of Eurovision Song Contest and other assorted entertaining nonsense.

La Clandestine - Luna Moka - Now That's a Dance Recital














(Video at Tumblr - see below)

Luna Moka School - La Clandestine is a burlesque school based in Strasbourg and run by Luna Moka.  Luna Moka's self-description (translated by Google):

"Luna Moka, a multi-faceted artist with a quirky world of circus and fairy tales, begins her career in 2007 in London"

The school's description (translated by Google):

"Burlesque stripping is the art of undressing with humor and glamor. Girls, get out your fishnet stockings, your panties frilly and your corsets alluring ... The school of Luna Moka opens its doors!

It is in a cozy atmosphere of a secret boudoir that burlesque artist Luna Moka unveils her new workspace: La Clandestine.

After several months of work, La Clandestine will make its first come back in September 2016 and will open its doors to the arts of the dance. Of course burlesque but also cabaret, french cancan, boogie woogie, hula hoop, modern jazz and classical dance, rock & roll, reloocking pin-up and bachelorette party will be on the program."

Waiting for the Finished Product



Could be nice for hoop skirt fans, but don't get your hopes up.  There is nothing to indicate what group this is, so further research for a web page is unlikely.

Musée du Coeur


   See no evil.  Hear no evil.  Speak no evil.  And none of that either!



Musée du Coeur: 

"We are the museum of the heart, bringing cherished theatrical histories to light and life."

"Musée du Cœur is a group of talented professionals hailing from different backgrounds including: costuming, photography, aerial dance, burlesque dance, ballroom... dance, professional ballet, hoop dance, and much more. It is not a traditional troupe. It is a rotating mix of artists looking for something fabulous to do; to share in the name of art, collaboration, mixed media and personal expression."

See their Facebook page and more photos at:

Hoops-a-Daisy



Two images showing the possibilities and risks of hoop skirts.  The former is by pin-up artist Gil Elvgren.  The second is a photo of a cast member of "The King and I" evidently cooling off after a strenuous waltz.  I'm not sure about the heart on the seat of her panties.  I certainly don't remember seeing this view in the show.

The Elvgren print is from the Love the Pin-ups Tumblr blog:

The big-hearted Siamese dancer is from the "From 20th Century Fox" Pinterest page:

Erin Go Cancan





Reprising an old favorite video in honor of St. Patrick's Day.  They may not be in traditional Irish dance costumes or even the more recent Riverdance variety, but they are bona fide Irish dancers.

This was performed at the Pigalle Concert in the National Concert Hall Dublin 25th August 2008.
