The gown-and-glove striptease is considered a very traditional form of the

opera gloves. She then removes the gloves one at a time, in a slow teasing manner, before similarly removing the gown. This type of dance is exemplified by actresses like Rita Hayworth in Gilda (1946)[4] and Natalie Wood in Gypsy (1962)[5] and by current neo-burlesque performers like Dita Von Teese,[6] Bonnie Delight,[1] Bettsie Bon Bon and Havana Hurricane.[2]
