The Stripper Bag

Many newbie strippers wonder what items are need to get started working as a professional exotic dancer. We have a list of clothes and supplies that will get you through your first few shifts at any club.

Appropriate stripper clothes:

If you aren't sure what outfits are required or appropriate for your intended club, it will pay to be prepared for anything. Get one or two mix and match stripper bikinis with matching thongs - these are the most common basic stripper outfits used in clubs today. You can find mix and match separates in plenty of hot colors in our store: http://www.stripper-wear.com/separates.html

It is also a good idea to have one mini dress and one stripper gown on hand, in case the club requires this type of outfit, or you feel like wearing that instead of the standard bikini. We have a variety of dresses and gowns available in our online stripper clothes store at great prices. Some good basic and inexpensive options:

Mini dresses: http://stripper-wear.com/bz-1828sl.html or http://stripper-wear.com/bz-1827sl.html

Gowns: http://stripper-wear.com/bz-1920sl.html or http://stripper-wear.com/bz-1942sl.html

Regarding thongs, we recommend getting thongs instead of g-strings to start with. Many topless clubs have width requirements for thongs, so g-strings won't be allowed in those clubs. The difference between a thong and a g-string is a thong is wider in back and a g-string only has a tiny string in back.

Stripper Shoes:

Get one pair of clear platform stripper shoes with an ankle strap to start out with. The clear shoes will go with any outfit, and the ankle strap will provide more stability for new dancers. We recommend shoes with a chunky heel if you aren't used to wearing tall heels.

The JEZEBEL-608 or SUGAR-531 would make a good starter shoe choice. You can search our site for those shoes in your size to find exactly what you need. Stripper shoes

Toiletries and supplies:

• Deodorant
• Body spray - we highly recommend the Victoria's Secret line of body sprays for best variety and longest-lasting scents.
• Baby wipes - we recommend the unscented kind. These are much better for your girly parts than feminine wipes.
• Gum or breath mints
• An extra thong or two - we recommend at least one black thong because you can wear that with anything.
• Stripper garter - many clubs require garters for collecting your tips. Also great for strapping your money to your leg with a rubberband or ponytail holder so your money won't get lost! One black garter is perfect to start with.
• Plain ponytail holders - to strap your cash to your garter.
• Band-aids - strippers do get minor cuts and scrapes occasionally, and they should always be covered at work.
• Lock for locker or for your suitcase. Choose a combination lock if you're good at remembering numbers. A key lock will work also, and you can loop your ponytail holder through the key to keep it attached to your garter and money. (Video tutorial on this and how to strap money to a garter coming soon!)
• Super glue - the soles of stripper shoes often come loose. Super glue is the best to repair them.
• Tampons, just in case!

Last bit of advice - if you're unsure whether the club has lockers (many don't), you can bring your things in a small carryon suitcase and lock it with a suitcase lock. It is important to keep your things locked up in the dressing room because you just never know.

We hope this helps! Look forward to our upcoming video tutorials!
