The name "The Violet Vixen" was originally the burlesque showgirl name for one of the original owners. Violet struggled to find corsets that could both accommodate her dance routines but that also had really sturdy hourglass shapes for her off-stage dress-up lifestyle. We now offer both "Costume" and fully steel-boned corsets and are expanding into our rockabilly and pin-up roots as well with dresses, purses and shoes! Originally started as a small Facebook community The Violet Vixen has grown substantially because we focus on you, the body-positive, sassy and fabulous Vixens 💋
