Booking agent Dan Phillips likens his idea to the advertising on Formula 1 driver’s racing suits, only with human flesh as the canvas rather than leather. The ‘[corporate sponsors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/legitimate-you)’ who rent [ad space on the bodies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-media) of strippers will also receive special deals on entertaining their clients at the club.
