Dita Von Teese Wakes Us Up

Posted on Apr 6, 2012 in Fashion

Dita says, “Good morning, Bitter Kittens! How do you like me?”

We like you just fine, Miss Dita.

Granted, on a lesser woman the monochromatic nature of your outfit would cause eye twitches in us, but you are Miss Dita Von Teese and everything you wear is a costume. You’re like a girl on a pinup calendar. A very demure pinup calendar.

Anyway, love your look, hon. Thanks for perking up our morning.

Bye now!

Luv huh.

DAY-UM. That is one fierce as shit Lady. Loves me some Dita. She is immaculately turned out, as always. All you other bitches, take heed! Ms Von Teese is teaching how its done.
- Nelliebelle1197
  
  Yes, but what does she do for a living to afford these things? I want that job.
  - http://joyouslifesf.wordpress.com Kiltdntiltd
    
    So, you’d like to be a stripper, huh? GO Girl! She’s a burlesque entertainer.

Love her.

What is this building? She seems to have dressed up for a visit to a pawn shop.
- RebeccaKW
  
  I said the same thing!
  - Alisa Rivera
    
    Typical Los Angeles back-of-the-building parking lot. And the building probably has some fabulous boutique that only the coolest people know about.
- Camille Goble
  
  Omigosh, it’s like you read my mind.
Rebecca Spooner

Ok, in the first picture…. HOW IS HER LEFT FOOT DOING THAT?? (I mean, I get how you get out of a car, it just looks so unnatural.)

But she looks fabulous….
- jw_ny
  
  yes, that…and how is her right foot doing what it’s doing in the 2nd shot! XD
  - http://pulse.yahoo.com/_ZMU2QQUTAUEPU23MUTZBQ5W2PI Peter
    
    Oh, friends… Surely you must know by now that Miss Dita is not entirely human. She was created by gay scientists to teach us all how to be that much more fabulous.
    - http://kittysdrawings.com Esz
      
      I thought the same – but then I thought, it’s Dita – every freeze frame of her life is a perfect pinup pose, so without doubt she’s scrutinised the exit from that car probably two weeks in advance.

I want that bag. And the D’Orsay pumps. If I wore heels that high.
http://twitter.com/ILikeShiny Cindi Williams

I think I have a much cheaper version of her bag in plum.

Stylish Miss Dita shows us how it’s done.

  LOL! Me too! Saw it and grabbed it at one of those mall vendors. lol
lalahartma

Eww, those shoes! But she looks great!
http://twitter.com/foodycatAlicia foodycatAlicia

I think the shoes are a bit much for a day dress! But in every other way, perfection!
OwnsHairlessCats

My feet hurt just looking at her, but DAMN I’d bear the pain if I looked like that!
http://www.facebook.com/charlotte.horseman Charlotte Horseman

She is so fun to see – no one dresses or turns it out like she does! It’s not a look that any other celeb out there could really get away with – technically it’s old fashioned and I wouldn’t WANT to see it on a lot of other people too. But, Dita being Dita, it’s so so cool that someone so sexy keeps this style of dressing alive.
- http://joyouslifesf.wordpress.com Kiltdntiltd
  
  And an object lesson, that dressing like a full on grown up does not mean you look “old” or “boring” or less than sexy.
  - RebeccaKW
    
    Exactly. You don’t have to flash side boob or wear a skirt so short you need a waxing to look sexy. You just need to wear flattering clothes that fit well and have a fierce attitude.
    - http://joyouslifesf.wordpress.com Kiltdntiltd
      
      Precisely. Besides the types of sexy are as varied as people, and their tastes. Sexy for one is a turn off for another. And trying too hard ALWAYS looks un sexy, in the end.

This woman never fails. Bravo Dita.
Lori

This is definitely a “don’t try this at home” look, but she is working it.
- ballerinawithagun
  
  No, I say “Always try this look at home!”
vanjar

Love the shoes! They’re probably impossible to walk in, but they look great and the car looks even better!
jw_ny

I can’t imagine driving in those heels.

She’s one of the few that can get away with 1 color head to toe. I’m a bit disappointed that she doesn’t have a car to match…but then again, that bimmer pretty much goes with any outfit, doesn’t it?
- ballerinawithagun
  
  I had never understood “driving shoes” but I have a few pair of heels that are so painful if I drive more than a few minutes. (I have “iron” feet in heels.) Actually had to remove shoes driving in rush hour traffic leaving San Francisco and the shoes had ties! I now have Borns in the car all the time.
  - janetjb
    
    Maybe she could show us how she drives in those heels.
    
    I could have used driving shoes. I ruined a few pairs of heels while driving, when I used to wear them.
    - http://twitter.com/foodycatAlicia foodycatAlicia
      
      Exactly – for me it is as much about the damage to the back of the heel as it is about the shoes being comfortable!
  - Kayceed
    
    I like to think she has a beautiful pair of Italian leather driving mocs – and driving gloves – stashed in the front seat.

Couldn’t wear one stitch of the outfit…..except those sunglasses….LOVE

Coveting the shoes, the sunglasses, and the car…

Oh, seriously LOVE.

Wow! She looks fantastic and fanshionable as always!!! Luv ya hun!
RebeccaKW

Fabulous bitch.

Where the heck is she? Some pay by the hour motel? A pawn shop?
- kingderella
  
  NO PARKING except for customers of this building only!
Pinup Ghoul

She always looks impeccable, but I think the bulk of her beauty comes from the fact that she always takes great care of herself. She exercises daily, never leaves her makeup on longer than she has to, and ALWAYS wears sunscreen, at least an SPF20. She’s beautiful in the truest sense of the word, and I adoooooore her. She’s been a continuing inspiration to me on my journey to constantly striving toward beauty. Thanks for adoring her as much as I do, TLo!
- Kayceed
  
  Yes, there is a discipline at work here that is really inspiring.
- http://twitter.com/alienspouse Jen Alien-Spouse
  
  Exactly! She’s also friends with Ari Seth Cohen, who is the photographer behind the Advanced Style blog, and Dita is clearly an admirer of those amazing ladies that I feel sure she’s going to look just as beautifully put together when she’s 80.

Love that she waived, instead or pretending like they’re not there
- http://joyouslifesf.wordpress.com Kiltdntiltd
  
  And smiled! Really smiled! Girl knows how the bill get paid.

  Paparazzi don’t normally hang around alleys in the middle of the day. She knew they’d be there.

I think the bag should have been black, but otherwise she looks fab.

Little bit of a static cling issue, but otherwise eye-catching in a good way.

Miss Dita, serving it up. Perfect in every way.

What an inspiration this Friday morning. Thanks, Miss Dita!

She does look great. I wonder where she was headed?
formerlyAnon

And that’s what she looks like GETTING OUT OF HER CAR!! No tweaking, smoothing, last minute steaming or powdering.

She IS a work of art.
Laurie Bergman

She has the most perfect decollete complexion of anyone I’ve ever seen. The smile and “Well, hi there!” body language complete an absolutely stunning monochromatic look.
RedRaven617

She looks like a sleek and contemporary Red Riding Hood.

We love you Miss Dita! Gorgeous as always.

I always hear her name in my head as Dita Von -Tease-, which I suppose would also be appropriate for a demure pinup calendar.

She is FLAWLESS! And that is after climbing out of her sports car and driving in those shoes. RESPECT.

I want to own everything this lady ever wears. It doesn’t hurt that we have similar coloring and body types, but damn, she can give her wardrobe leftovers to me any day. Mind you, I do wonder if she owns a pair of sweatpants.

Golly, if any of us tried that at home we would look like somebody’s crazy auntie who is always drunk at family gatherings. She, however, look AH MAAAA ZING. Jealous.

Luv huh Luv huh Luv huh indeed.
VicksieDo

What is her thing? Does she sing or act? I think I’ve only ever seen her presenting awards or walking around fabulously…
- http://twitter.com/lovesongwriter Black Static
  
  She does some acting, but she is a model and burlesque star primarily.
- sleah_in_norcal
  
  she performs traditional burlesque in addition to be fabulous at all times.
CatherineRhodes

I love that she’s smiling and waving at the camera. That glum Natalie Portman walking around Paris in Dior could learn a thing or two.
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1046681022 Paula Berman

She is amazing, and one of a kind. She always looks like a pin up or a fashion doll. I’d like to know what her secrets are for her amazing, glowing skin.
http://twitter.com/LianaBrooks Liana Brooks

Bitter Kitten Being Bitter: This is the worst I’ve ever seen her. Ditta is iconic, she has a very particular style, and while this outfit fall in the right category, it isn’t hitting the high notes. Granted, she’s probably on her way to something, but her hair looks horrible and the dress is frumpy.

Everyone is saying, “If this was anyone else…” I’m saying, “If it didn’t have her name attached we’d all be trashing this poor woman’s fashion sense.” She’s making the outfit work only because we all know Ditta is fabulous, not because the outfit actually WERQs.

*returns forum to a less Bitter Kitten*
- http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1046681022 Paula Berman
  
  You really think her hair looks horrible? I wish my hair looked that horrible on any given day.
- http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1344922354 Eric Scheirer Stott
  
  I semi-agree. She’s pretty fabulous from the front but not so much from the back. Of course, the fabric and fit of the outfit aren’t really meant for sitting in a car.
http://twitter.com/#!/Space_Kitty Space Kitty

I wish to be first in line for Miss Dita’s finishing school, if only to learn how to exit a car (in those shoes, yet!) looking like a lady.
gubblebumm

i want the dress or a cheap version of it please

k off to work off dinner so i too can have teentiny waste

She’s fab.
Best acessory? The smile.

I love those shoes! She is fabulous I mean seriously just LOOK at her! Love it all, love the bag, the shoes, the dress, love it all =)

She could use a touch of red….
http://twitter.com/jaythenerdkid Aaminah Khan

She has been one of my biggest crushes for the longest time now. I love her so much.
alyce1213

She’s turned out so perfectly and makes quite a show of it.
But somehow, I just can’t connect with her on a human, emotional level.
I can only see her as a lovely, two-dimensional character, which I’m sure she’s not.
She just looks that way to me.
giiiirrrr

I love the back of the dress, with the reverse Peter Pan collar. Otherwise, it’s Dita, nothing new under the sun. Including her. I wonder if there’s something like a reverse tan?
Glammie

Love, love. Want, want. Well would want-want back when I was a sleek thing. So I’ll just settle for wanting the uber-fabulous sunglasses. Anyone recognize them? I love that they’re not retro, but somehow go with the retro look.
- fashionablylate
  
  I want the answer to this question too – LOVE those sunglasses!
guest2visits

It does look very costume-y; like she came off the set of ‘Dick Tracy’.
This all red ensemble isn’t as complementary as most everything else I’ve seen her in.
But wow; how does one get such radiant, porcelain skin,? I might be too afraid to ask. The answer could be terrifying;
some kind of Dita Von-potion a la Goldie Hawn/Meryl Streep.
- http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1046681022 Paula Berman
  
  ”Countess Bathory” flashed through my mind when I read your post…
  - guest2visits
    
    Yikes! Holy-Hapsburg, Batgirl! I was referring to the 90′s movie, ‘Death Becomes Her’; with Streep, Hawn,
    and Bruce Willis. Hilarious. Isabella Rossellini plays ‘Lisle Von Rhoman’; a mysterious woman who looks
    about 25 but is actually in her 70′s. She offers a magic elixar to Streep that restores and retains eternal-beauty.
    Worth renting. I had to look up the Countess. Insane!!! Never heard the story.
    
    I’m pretty sure Dita would live in a castle though….!
Caaro3

Dita is so . . . creamy.
KaileeM

It must be exhausting to be Dita Von Teese. Never a nail chipped, an errant eyebrow hair, visible roots, or sensible shoe. Girl looks fierce ALL of the time! I have the utmost respect for her devotion to her look. She makes it look effortless!
saanrio

Flawless and amazing, as always.
S. Jenna Lutz

I want everything on her.

Oh… hell.

Keep it on her and just send HER to my house? Please? I’ll make her cookies?

Slowly but, oh, so surely she’s becoming Ann Miller.

HOT DAMN!!! She is amazing! And it’s true, she really is the only person who can wear one uniform bright color and not look like a spaz!
baxterbaby

I write this every time but… Oh Dita. Never change. You’re my very own grown up Barbie with your matching purse and shoes!
eight_of_nine

Oh, Dita. THIS is how you look sexy, starlets.
ri_dic

I guess it’s because she’s really a “character,” vs. a person…this is why she never gets called on for needing a change? Don’t get me wrong- I know she looks great- but she always looks the same.
NDC_IPCentral

I’m really late to the party here (big Cycle 2 day – hurrah!), but I agree that Dita Van Teese is Da Bomb. She sure puts her rather down-market surroundings shown in the background to shame. What a great way for you to have started the Bitter Kittens’ Day, T Lo; thanks, Boys!

Her skin is amazing. I wish I had a clear enough complexion to rock the pale look.

How is it that even her matching purse and shoes is a winner? She is so fabulous!
bitterk

The last time she had on all red, I thought Barbie’s Special Edition Valentine Dress, but this? This is how you do head to toe red, you leave the head out of the equation. Divine.
