Queen of neo burlesque since the 90’s, Dita, her real name Heather Renée Sweet, created literally and figuratively, a real character between glamour vintage and sophistication almost 'surgical'. As Madonna hummed it very well: " my name is Dita, and I’ll be your mistress tonight… " Erotica !
Focus look : Sophisticated Lady
[multicol]Only one word: Vintage, vintage, vintage ! Dita von Teese likes retro since she was a child and is obsessed with pin up and Hollywood heroines of the forties and the fifities. Veronica Lake, Rita Hayworth or Bettie Page, Dita falls for an uplift corset, a hobble hem pencil skirt, long satin gloves and heels... high of course ! Perfect day and night, with silk, lace or vinyl, Dita opts for a sexy silhouette but always very chic with white and black, bar suits and other belted dresses. John Galliano and Marc Jacobs consider her as one the best dressed women in the world ! Bargain hunter since she was an adolescent, she keenly knows the vintage shops and the great couturiers. But she does herself some of her outfits because the beauty studied couture ! Now, with success, she creates her own lingerie collections and clothes inspired from her dream dressing which may make jealous Didier Ludot, the king of vintage.
[multicol]As she says, the sublime Dita, born in 1972, completely created her character of modern vamp, maliciously swinging from good pupil to very fetish master of the donjon. From blonde, she turned very quickly to red then to deep black. She dyes herself her hair with the products Revlon. At the age of 21, she confesses that she resorted to surgery and turned to a cup 85 D. She partied a lot in the 90’s and consumed a lot of unlawful substances, she said. Having lost a lot of weight, her bust never return to its initial size...no waffle like others !
