In Steven Antin's original musical, Christina Aguilera plays 'Ali', a small-town girl who moves to L.A. to pursue her dreams of fame and fortune. Once there she discovers the ailing Burlesque Lounge, owned by 'Tess' (Cher), and becomes a waitress there until she convinces the retired dancer to give her a chance on stage. During a performance when the sound is maliciously cut, Ali breaks into song and proves what a star she is, soon becoming the venue's headline act.

The third eye-catching costume on display, a Swarovski-encrusted corset, was worn for the song 'But I Am a Good Girl' when Stanley Tucci's character 'Sean', suggests Ali wears a wig on stage.

Michael Kaplan has said he wanted the satin pink and peach feathered costume to look like a dessert.

All these wonderful outfits were photographed on display at ArcLight Hollywood cinema in L.A. on November 24, 2010, along with this short video clip of the costume exhibit.
