About Us

Hi my name is Susie, I started this website as I couldn't find unusual burlesque items. Myself and friends love nothing more than to dress to the nines and see a good cabaret show. Stuck for something to wear, myself and my friend Terje decided to start designing and making our own clothing.  From small acorns, as the saying goes..........

'Oh You Pretty Thing' started literally on my kitchen table. Terje and I had a party to go to and not a thing to wear.....*sobs*.  So with some sassy black satin, some trim and black net we made our first outfits.  With so many parties for a girl to attend, we naturally had to make more outfits and as well as making for friends, we were approached at parties to make bespoke items.

................and now for the business like bit.

‘Oh You Pretty Thing!’specialises in burlesque wear, and retro garments.

We are a small company, with great attention to detail. We strive to offer our customers good quality clothing at reasonable prices. Where possible, most items are designed and manufactured in the UK. We think that British is best for design, quality, innovation, originality.

Stocks will change on a regular basis, as we are not interested in selling thousands of the same item.   I mean a girl needs a little individuality, especially in todays market, where so many items of clothing are churned out and sold at the same stores in every town in the country.

Burlesque is very fashionable now, with almost everynight  an event being held somewhere...... be it a cabaret act, party, burlesque classes. It really has caught peoples imagination.

Burlesque fashion encompasses tight fitting corsetry, sexy wiggle skirts, frilly panties, waisted suspender belts, satin and velvet hotpants, .......think Dita Von Teese, long stretch satin opera gloves, feather boas, seamed stockings and fishnets. Glamour darlink......

As a small company with a genuine love of glamorous clothing, we will continue to bring you lots of yummie, sexy, tactile outfits so pleaseeeee......mark us down in your ‘favourites’ page....... We want you to be pretty!
