The grown-up (and glamorous!) version of playing dress up
An immersive Showgirl experience in which you have exclusive access to raid a Las Vegas Showgirl’s costume closet and indulge in glamour to find yourself transformed and get your sexy back.
Showgirl Experience: Give your inner child a chance to come out and play
Were you one of those little girls that absolutely LOVED playing dress up? Maybe you still LOVE playing dress up but just don’t get that many opportunities now that you’re a grown ass woman?
Feathery Revelry is a showgirl experience, all about playing dress up — and more.
Letting your inner child come out to play, whether it’s playing dress up or creating, is a form or Self Love—or Self Care, if you like.
Tuning back into that playful energy can work wonders on your confidence, productivity, sex life—you name it!
Addicted to feathers and sparkles, oh my!!
Hello! I'm Athena!
I’m a former Las Vegas Showgirl who inspires women to add more glamour to their daily lives. I help them feel sexy, confident, and feminine so that they can have more fun.
I’ve transformed from iconic glamazon to frumpy mother and back. And now I’m sharing my Showgirl Shortcuts with women so that they may lead happier, more titillating lives.

Showgirl Experience: Redefining how women gather and play
The creation of Feathery Revelries came from a call to be true to myself and my passions. A call for authenticity. A call for creativity.
After years of attempting to fit in to all types of communities, and not really being able to do so, I realized that my gift to this world stems from a very simple childhood pastime.
Dress up.
Combining a love of glamour, crafting, storytelling and reveling, Feathery Revelries was born.
By merging my passions—Showgirls, costumes, and uplifting people—I was able to create an immersive event that few in this world have been allowed to experience.
The gift in this experience is allowing your inner child to come out to play: the You that existed before ego, insecurities and adulting.
Adorning that inner girl in feathers and sparkles will get your sexy back and reveal a powerful, confident woman.
I can’t say enough about my time with Athena/Gazella & attending her Showgirl Experience! I got to try on some of her gorgeous costumes, learn showgirl moves & have fun! She was so warm & encouraging. We laughed a LOT & got silly… it’s been such a long time since I smiled for the couple of hours that my face hurt. Best part… I left feeling more confident in myself!

What happens at a Feathery Revelry?
The most memorable moments happen because they aren’t orchestrated, right? So, I provide a loose plan of events based on the desires of the group and the fun starts from there.
Storytelling
I wasn’t always the glamour queen. I started off as a modest ballerina. The transformation necessary to become the icon of Las Vegas was more than an exterior overhaul. I had to do some inside work to get there.
Prep Time
Before we get to the main event, I will walk you through all the parts necessary to transform from modern, conservative woman to a glamorous vintage Vegas icon. Trust me, it will make the play time so much more satisfying!
- Movement: Learning how to walk, pose, and parade
- Before Photos (if you select the photo option)
Play Time
The bulk of the revelry is spent playing. Allowing that inner girl to come out and play is part of this process. Show her some love and just play!
- Makeup lesson: Put on those lashes and lips, baby!
- Costume intro: A primer on the basics of Showgirl costume pieces.
- Dress up time: Time to try stuff on!
- Movement in costume: Twirl, pose and frolic with ALL the feathers!
- Photos (if photo option is purchased): Professional portraits and group photos shot, or I can take shots with reveler's phones.

The Showgirl experience of dressing up, applying make up, getting photographed, I felt so Special. You captured an inner beauty that I wasn’t sure I had anymore. It gave me a sense of security with who I am as a Businesswoman, Chef, Wife, and Abuelita.
