Deadly Models Wanted - all the info is here!

Models Needed!

We are looking for some new faces (and bodies!) for our website.

We believe beauty exists in all different shapes, shades and sizes and we love expressions of individuality but these shoots have a very specific objective. If you are not what we are looking for at the moment this doesn't mean we don't think you are beautiful, just that you are not quite what we are looking for at the moment.

With this is mind we have quite a long list of requirements to help you understand what we are looking for so if you think you fit the bill we’d love to hear from you...

  • Can you get to Frome, Somerset on a Sunday? We usually shoot in the shop on a Sunday and have a photographer and hair and makeup artist so we really need someone who can come to us. 
  • Are you confident and energetic? You don’t have to have had a lot of modelling experience before but you do need to be very comfortable in your own skin and be able to look into the camera knowing you are fabulous!
  • Are you tattoo and piercing free (at least as far as is visible when in swimwear)?* As much as we love these things we have chosen not to use models with them on our website so as not to distract from the clothes - we have found some of our customers focus more on the tattoos than anything else! Cover up makeup is not an option as we can’t risk the damage to the clothes.
  • Are you over 18? We are reasonably flexible on age but you must be over 18.
  • Are you between a UK size 10 and 16? We are passionate about our clothes being available in as wide a range of sizes as possible and do have clothes which fit from a size 6/8 up to a size 20, but we don’t always have everything in all sizes. We will ask for measurements before confirming any dates to ensure we have all the clothes in your size.

If you have answered YES to all of these questions then you could be just who we are looking for!

Please send a current photo of yourself along with some basic info about yourself including dress size to info@deadlyisthefemale.com

For our next shoot we are particularly looking for a blonde or red head but we will keep everyone’s details on file.

We are sorry to say that we won’t be able to get back to everyone but if you don’t hear from us this time, you might next time..


*An update on the no tattoos and piercings requirement - something tiny which can be easily hidden could work and anything like a belly button piercing is fine. We are not saying we don't like these things, just that they are not suitable for this project. We will let you know when we do need all your beautiful tattooed ladies <3

Website update

As you know we are busy working on a new website which we are super excited about. With a bit of luck & a lot of hard work it should be ready to launch next month.

In preparation we have developed a new logo - as you will have noticed at the top of the page!

We've also been busy shooting new photos to help give you a clearer look at our goodies.

First up we had a hair and make up trial with our fabulous model Sophie and our hair and make up queen Lolita Noir

We ended up having a great night with lots of wine and giggles as well as lots of hard work. Well i just supervised but someone had to keep the drinks topped up!

We settled on 2 variations on the hair & subtly changing lips through our first shoot.

I'll post some behind the scenes pics of the shoot really soon!

Alice in Wonderland Burlesque Window

We are lucky enough to have 2 beautiful windows and we enjoy finding new ways to dress them. This time we have taken inspiration from Alice in Wonderland!This is how the window looked when we started. We had a over the top boudoir style in with lots of pink & red & even an Edgar Allen Poe poem typed up on a old typewriter... filled with lots of lovely Stop Staring! and Pin Up Couture.Everything has to come out & gets piled up in the shop - that's one reason I try to keep window days separate to open days - I am messy! There were tonnes of staples holding the old window in place so it took ages. After a clean we were ready to go... Of course I had a little helpers - GoGo spent much of his time showing off in the window and charming all the passing school children.
My fluffy clouds might look like a child made them they actually took me forever to make - turns out I am no craft queen! I've been picking cotton wool fluff out of my hair and off my clothes for days!
I'd toyed with the idea of making our Deer 'Cedric' the Mad Hatter but decided he'd make an adorable white rabbit.I also Papier Mached some cakes to get around the problem of rotting food in the window - I'm actually pretty plesased with them! I was going for mini iced victoria sponges. They were a bit ratty around the edges so i finished them off with some pretty ribbon from the adorable haberdashery down the hill (http://www.milliemoonshop.co.uk) and some doilies!Last in go some actual things for sale! We have the fabulous Heidi Cherry Dress by Pin Up Couture with a show stopping black petticoat underneath and poison bottle necklace - finished off with Bordello's red velvet Whimsey Boots.
The other window has more clothes and a little less theming - though we did add a 'Eat Me' cake and 'Drink Me' bottle and playing cards (added the morning after the photos!). The trio of outfits starts with the Stop Staring!'s Paris dress in Navy with a silver teapot necklace, a Pin Up Couture navy pencil skirt and the last Trashy Diva red Courtney Jacket and lastly the navy Natalie wiggle dress - all with fabulous red shoesOverall we are really pleased! If you are in Frome please stop by and let us know your thoughts - or comment on our blog!

Coco Boudoir Burlesuqe night in Bath

We have just about recovered from another fabulous night at Coco Boudoir in Bath last Saturday.

We sponsor the night and offer a couple of prizes in the raffle (this time we had a £25 voucher and a Eldorado Club necklace) so we try to always get over to see it. I have to say, I think this was the best yet.

First up the fabulous compare Countess Assupi was amusing and informative and put us all at our ease. She had the sad news the Keda Breeze would not be headlining as expected due to an anvil grinding accident a few days ago - we hope she gets better soon. Replacing her was the cabaret circus act - Matt Pang.

Starting the evening off with a classy bang was Fifi Fatale - as elegant as ever with her powder box routine, then we had the adorable Fay La Foe doing a cute 20s style housework act. A roller dropped out and she did a fantastic job of not falling over it & was thoroughly enjoyable. A fabulous contrast to Fifi's more traditional charms.

I have to admit I wasn't particularly looking forward to the next act. I can't really say why but I was instantly proved wrong when Jack Woodhead hit the stage. He was utterly likable in a camp northern prince charming sort of a way and truly funny.

Coco De Ville took to the stage next with a lovely Balloon/Martini act - I want her olive pasties - and the first half was completed with a slightly shaky Juggling act by the new Headliner Matt Pang.

During the break we were able to move to a much better table as a couple had left in protest - apparently they were not expecting any Burlesque at a Burlesque night. Turns out they missed out on a cracking second act!

Now I must confess the order might be a little hazy, but I do know Coco Deville's Alice in Wonderland act was fabulous and kept you enthralled, Fifi Fatales 20s style performance was my favourite of hers ever and Fay La Foe did a wonderful upbeat number which made us smile. Jack Woodhead was even funnier, we loved his rambling asides and his sharp wit and Matt Pang's Straight jacket escape while riding a unicycle had us crying with laughter.

All in all it was a great night. I felt wonderful in my new Military dress by Pin Up Couture, the crowd was warm and we had SUCH a giggle!
