Photographs
The walls at Strip House are filled with a diverse collection of black and white photographs from Studio Manasse that were taken during the golden age of cinema and caberet in Vienna during the 1920s and 1930s. The husband-and-wife team of Adorjan and Olga Wlassics, owners of Studio Manasse, were known for their erotic imagery. Long before Photoshop, they used retouching techniques to create their own erotic, noir-style photographs, noted for their glamorous styling and extravagant fashion (with what clothes were on!). Their work was displayed in countless European magazines. The photographs in the bar in the Las Vegas location are a bit more risqué, allowing display of some of the more captivating, surreal photos in the collection. Additionally, because the Las Vegas restaurant is larger than its New York counterpart, more photos are on display. To add to the retro yet modern atmosphere, cocktail servers are dressed in luxury fashions that celebrate intimacy and inspire the romantic imagination, courtesy of designer Kiki De Montparnasse.
