showgirl
Feathered cabaret dancer
A showgirl is a woman who performs in stage productions, typically musical revues or variety shows, where glamorous appearance is as important as dancing or other talents.
Showgirls are associated especially with elaborate Las Vegas productions and similar entertainment venues, often wearing ornate costumes with feathers, sequins, and headdresses.
The casino's showgirls posed for photos with tourists in the lobby.
The term can carry connotations of objectification, emphasizing physical display over artistic skill.
