HE'S got some front! Jason Swales sashays down a Victoria Quarter arcade in Leeds dressed as Shirley Bassey to publicise a fashion event this weekend.
Leeds Burlesque is planning the event on Sunday to showcase vintage clothing.
The show, in the Victoria Quarter from 7pm until midnight is part of Leeds Shopping Week and is set to raise funds for thyroid disease, an illness which affects one in four of the population, mainly women.
The event is organised by Dalia Hawley and Dawn Wood of design company Ages Of Elegance.
Dalia told the YEP: "We hope to use burlesque with its celebration of the female form to help empower and boost the body confidence of those patients whose self-esteem has been knocked by the illness."
Tickets are from £8.
