Dash of Chivalry offers ‘gentlemen’ rather than strippers.
Ms Malcolm (23) acted on the idea after being disappointed with an experience attempting to book a topless driver for a wine tour hens party.
‘My friends aren’t in to strippers and there’s no other alternative,’ she said.

The five men on offer can be put to work at an event as a driver, waiter, barman or guitarist capitalising on their own unique talents.
Leigh White (32), a personal trainer, and Dylan Hoyne (19), a law student, were among 30 men that Ms Malcolm interviewed for the positions.
‘I liked the way the position was advertised, it was about being a gentleman rather than a stripper,’ Mr White said.
‘I was asked ‘what is a gentleman’ and ‘what is their role in society’. Chivalry still has a place in our society.’
Ms Malcolm, who is studying Certificate 4 in Youth Services, launched the online business in December and plans to expand to include women.
