DITA VON TEESE LAUNCH COLLECTION
The Dita Von Teese Collection is the epitome of classic retro- glamour
with a launch capsule collection that features five fabulous
pieces, including vintage-inspired dresses and a tulle -
layered trench coat. Each dress includes couture detailing
and grosgrain ribbon that cinches the waist to create a
svelte feminine silhouette for which the fashion muse is so
renowned.
The Dita Von Teese clothing line was launched in
Melbourne, Australia in November 2011. The 5 piece collection will
be available exclusively at David Jones, and features 4
dresses and one coat based on some of Dita's personal
vintage favorites from her closet. All of the styles were
also named by Dita herself. Dita describes them below:

The VIP Coat "I've always said that the key to achieving glamour on the go
is to have a very chic coat. I collect coats from the 1950s,
because the hourglass fit and flare silhouette is so
flattering. I wanted to bring this shape to the classic
black trench coat, and this one has wonderful details like a
hidden pocket, a tulle lining for a bit of volume, and the
lovely grosgrain waist ribbon, which is a tribute to vintage
couture. I might add that one of my favorite tools of
seduction is a sexy coat, which I wear with nothing but
black stockings and lingerie underneath!"
The Bon Bon Dress "This is a combination of two of my vintage dresses. The
luxurious velvet ribbon straps tied neatly in a bow is a
detail from a 1930s gown that I own. The inspiration for the
fabric comes from a favorite 1940s dress in my closet. I had
the idea of reworking this beautiful print with my signature
retro-styled half moon manicure. It was 20 years ago that I
first discovered this vintage beauty method of manicure by
closely studying vintage glamour photos, and I've been
painting my nails this way ever since. It's an obsession of
mine, so I was delighted to find a way to work it into the
silk print!"
The Follow Me Dress "This is designed after a dress from the 1950s that I have
worn over and over for about eleven years, and I always get
compliments on it. It is timeless and always chic, which
makes it a perfect wardrobe staple. I like to wear it with
different vintage brooches from my collection on the
shoulder. I have worn this dress over the years on red
carpets, to events, parties and for many a romantic
rendezvous. We remade this dress with a beautiful silk
lining and silk chiffon, and I'm especially happy to have an
improved version of the original dress in my wardrobe!"
The Second Look Dress "There is a very simple, sleek black vintage dress I wear
often, and one of my most elegant friends loves this dress,
often stating it is so simple, yet it is the height of chic,
with nothing to distract from the beauty of woman. I love to
wear extravagant clothes, but every woman must remember to
also have something simple but sexy to wear. I called this
the "Second Look" dress because it may not seem like much,
but when you slip into it with it's figure-hugging power-
mesh interior, you're bound to get a second look!"
The Showcase Dress "I have a vintage dress in my collection that has a very
deep sculpted neckline, and I would often wear it with
various different beautiful bras underneath it to give it a
sexy and unique look as the lace teasingly peeks out of the
top. Sometimes I would wear it simply as is, with it's deep
plunge "showcasing" my decollatage. With a below the knee
hemline, it's the perfect way to bring sensuality and
sophistication together."
