Where can i buy Burlesque/Boudoir wallpaper type backgrounds ?

[TG.]

As the title says really, i am looking for some burlesque/Boudoir backgrounds, the wallpaper type, with the floral designs, that you see on these type of shots, I've been looking on the net, but no luck really, apart from one which was extortionate, the only thing i can find is normal wallpaper, but obviously it's not wide enough, i would also prefer paper backgrounds if possible, as opposed to material, however if material is all i can get hold of that will do, any feedback much appreciated

I would guess that the shots you've seen will be using a solid background (e.g. a sheet of MDF) which has been wallpapered with off the shelf flowery design paper or are actually shot in a room with that type of wallpaper!

Cheers

I was actually looking at a local studios site earlier as my friend has a photo shoot booked with them. They specialise in boudoir and burlesque apparently.

Anyway, they seem to favour using a solid colour background, lit with a spot light in the centre to get fall off to the edges. Or it might just be a background put in with PP. It looked quite good, despite not being "traditional" and they seem popular around here. It may be worth looking into?

They're called flashes and lashes or something if you want to search for them.

Not cheap, but an excellent selection.

Thanks for the link Paul, they look very good, prices are fairly competitive, however i'm more concerned about their returns policy, or should i say lack of one, lol, they state "

Returns Policy

Always follow these guidelines:-
•We DO NOT accept returns on products.
•We inspect each order that is printed and shipped before it leaves our premises to ensure there are no defects
•We advise you to check your product(s) before you sign for it as we cannot accept responsibility for any damage after you have signed for it"

I'm fairly sure that isn't legal, over distance selling regulations, however i guess if you want to buy from them, it's a chance you may have to take, maybe someone here who knows more about distance selling could clarify.
