Sugabillys - Pin Up Academy with Anna Fur Laxis at Le Keux Vintage Salon

Hi Keuxettes!! Kate here - I'm the Business Development & PR Manager for Le Keux and I was delighted to be in the salon for our latest free Pin Up Academy for the Sugabillys Pin Up Models and Promotional Staff this week, with the world renowned model & burlesque artist Anna Fur Laxis.


Sugabillys manager Diablo Rose with Anna Fur Laxis at Le Keux Vintage Salon

Anna's workshop was a masterclass in pin up posing, including tips on posing & movement, what to do with your hands & face, and using props & clothing. I was so impressed with Anna's approachable, honest and friendly delivery and she charmed the Sugabillys as well as teaching them. The girls picked up some really helpful tips (like how not to accidently amputate your own arm in a shot!) and even from a 'non-model' point of view, the session was really interesting and gave me a real insight in to the world of the pin up!

All the models and promotional staff signed to Sugabillys receive free training from the UK's top pin up models, including Diablo Rose who also manages them. Diablo was at the session to take photos for the girl's free portfolios, help them pick what to wear from our pin up shoot wardrobe and take some shots for the repro clothing company Heyday! She also gave some hair and make-up tutorials to the girls who hadn't made themselves up before they arrived, alongside our Senior Stylist, Amy.

If you think you've got what it takes to be a Sugabilly and want to enjoy the perks of the (dream) job, contact diablo.rose@lekeuxevents.co.uk, or want to get a taste of pin up life you can book in for one of our £99 Pin Up Model Photoshoots, which include hair & makeup, costume changes and one digital image, and lots of fun in the salon!!
