Crowning a Burlesque Queen: Violette Coquette

Last year, Montreal’s vibrant burlesque scene crowned a star at Imperial Burlesque Canada. Violette Coquette dazzled audiences and judges alike with an electrifying performance that earned them the coveted title. Through intricate choreography, stunning costumes, and magnetic stage presence, they brought the true art of burlesque to life—sensual, empowering, and unapologetically bold.

Winning this crown in a city renowned for its thriving burlesque community is no small feat. Violette Coquette’s act wasn’t just a display of skill; it was a celebration of confidence and individuality, showing that burlesque is as much about storytelling and self-expression as it is about entertainment.

"How brilliant that I got to commemorate my win at the 2023 Imperial Burlesque Canada with a Coco Haus photoshoot! The glamorous setting in her studio was perfect for making me feel like a true Queen. In no time at all I had a glass of bubbles in my hand, and Andrea was a pro for guiding me to the perfect angles, with the perfect lighting. It was also SO fun to get to play dress-up with some of the amazing Coco Haus wardrobe and jewelry accessories – the vintage vibes we captured were perfection, and the set of photos are just gorgeous!"
