Le Mustache
Danielle decided to run with the idea of putting on a burlesque show, and thought of getting some of her family and friends involved. She initially got her sister involved before assembling the rest of the crew.
Danielle mainly drew upon her roller derby teammates and girls from another team called the Quad City Rollers. They all make up Le Mustache, a burlesque squad.
Modesty Was An Issue
One of the issues women had when it came to deciding whether to join Danielle in her burlesque troupe or not was the fact that a lot of them were not comfortable with showing off their bodies.
Her sister, the first person that joined, told Danielle she wanted to be the group’s “modest one” who didn’t need to show her entire body. However, one by one, the women Danielle recruited asked to be the “modest one.” Danielle, therefore, had to get everyone comfortable with their bodies in practice so that no one would need to be “the modest one.”
