Dita Von Teese is to launch her new lingerie line, Von Follies, exclusively through Australian retailer Target in February this year. The collection was inspired by her love for the 1950’s pin up girl as well as her own personal collection of vintage lingerie. This fabulous collection will include high waisted briefs, garter belts and over-wire bra’s.
Dita explains: “From age 16 I worked in a lingerie store, and I had a very strong interest in the history of underpinnings and how styles changed from decade to decade. Even at age sixteen, I wanted to be a lingerie expert, so I did everything I could to learn about it! I started collecting vintage lingerie at a young age, and my love for it is what lead me to imitate pinup art of the 1940s, and that is what sparked my career as it is now. Even back then, I equated beautiful lingerie with femininity and everyday luxury rather than seduction. Of course, the art of seducing with lingerie is a wonderful thing, and I am quite aware of the effect it has….but first and foremost, a woman should seduce herself by choosing lingerie that is both beautiful and functional that she can wear in her everyday life, and so bringing these things together, along with affordability, is what I aimed to achieve with my lingerie collection.”

I think she is the perfect ambassador for retro styled lingerie. Wonder if we will get this sassy collection here?

Dita has such a unique style and I love how she remains true to it. I think a beautiful outfit starts with beautiful lingerie and I do think a woman feels better when she has gorgeous lingerie. She should dress up for herself first of all. I think I will love Dita’s collection.
