Cher and Christina Aguilera’s new film, Burlesque, could get
consumers thinking about vamping up their own wardrobes. Enter seductive,
burlesque-inspired jewels—styles that speak to the genre, including colors like
black and red, and the sultry effects of blackened metals and marcasite, and
even animal skins like stingray; also think motifs like pinup-girls and tassels,
and corset-like effects.
