EYE-CATCHING displays and performances were the order of the day at a special event this weekend.
The Brighton Burlesque Festival took place at the Thistle Hotel on Saturday and featured hours of burlesque, pole dancing and circus entertainment.
International star Sukki Singapora and recently crowned Best British Act Coco Deville were the star draws for the event, which was organised by TicketplannerUK and South Coast Swing Events.
Burlesque workshops were held throughout the day for those interested in trying it out and prizes were awarded for those who turned up in the best costumes.
There were also more than 15 stalls featuring vintage clothing and homeware before the event finished off with an after-party that went on until the small hours.
