I have found the perfect presser foot for sewing snap tape! It’s called a “zipper cording foot”. It’s really narrow so it makes it easy to get the needle around the snaps. It also has an adjustable slider so you can change its position relative to the needle super easily. I look forward to never jamming those pesky snaps under the presser foot again! . . . #sewing #burlesque #tearaway #snaps

Was absolutely in love with the @dragkingproject’s San Fran show. It was great seeing two @boizofaustin Austin locals @madmaxmorrison and @papichurroatx. Y’all are inspiring! . . #drag #dragking #boizofaustin (at Queen of Hearts Art Gallery)

Hello burlesque world! I’m Demi and I’m very excited to be here. Since I don’t have performance photos yet, I wanted to share these tangentially related 2015 pinup shoot photos taken by @shamelesspinup in San Francisco. The shoot was an absolute blast, and even if it looks natural, this was the first time I ever considered pulling off a “classic beauty” look. They do absolutely phenomenal work. Here’s to more photos of me lookin sexy!
