Dressing up “Dancing” stars

Pit stains are just the worst when the guys are raising their arms. Most of the dancers have had such good training by the time that we tape that they don’t sweat that much until they’re well off the floor. The sweat doesn’t break out until after the interview. It does happen it pops out and we’re out there with towels and paper towels to swabbing them down to keep them cool and collected looking. What’s it like working with lead professional dancer and San Francisco native Cheryl Burke?I have to say designing for Cheryl Burke is a fantastic experience. She is young has a curvy sexy body and wow can she ever dance! All of her energy on the dance floor really inspires me to do my best for her. Cheryl has a good idea of looks and cuts that work on her body and along with dance coaches she has developed a “look” of her own.
