DITA VON
TEESE wasn’t short of inspiration when she started designing
her lingerie line, Von Follies – the entire top floor of her house
is devoted to her vintage wardrobe, with three shelves devoted to
luxurious underwear.
“I like to surround myself with luxury and beauty all the time,”
she told us. “I’ve been collecting vintage lingerie for 25 years -
my collection is pretty huge now. I’ve always been fascinated by
it, I used to sift through my mother’s underwear drawer when I was
young. I loved the idea of something that was feminine and
functional.”
Von Teese worked in a lingerie store from the age of 16,
fuelling her love for artfully made beautiful undergarments and her
interest in pin-up models. Having built a solid reputation as one
of the world’s leading burlesque dancers, she launched her debut
underwear line in Australia in February this year. It has only
recently become available to a British market, with stockists
including ASOS and Debenhams. Price points are accessible, ranging
from £12 for satin thongs to £32 for bras covered with lace and
embroidered with bows.
“It wasn’t easy,” she said of the democratic pricing. “I had to
ask the manufacturers a lot of questions about how much various
fabrics cost, but I wanted to prove that it is possible to create
something beautiful and affordable. There is no reason to wear a
simple white bra when you can have this.”
As you might expect, the collection is founded on a nostalgic
play on modernity and inspired by items that the dancer owns
herself.
“What prevents vintage from looking too dress-up is if you mix
modern and vintage pieces,” she explained. “That’s what I do – and
that’s what I’ve done with this collection. Wear things that look
modern. You have to have a discerning eye.”
Von Teese has recently added a number of dresses to her fashion
line – and we can hope to see the brand expand further in the
future.
“I won’t do shoes, because Christian Louboutin is one of my best
friends and that’s something he does very well,” she laughed. “But
I can see myself doing jewellery or handbags – I love both of
those.”

She may have waltzed off the dance floor when her partner Sid Owen was voted off Strictly Come Dancing last month – but when it comes to Christmas spirit, there’s no stopping Ola Jordan.
Making a return as the face and body of lingerie brand Boux Avenue, dancing queen Ola is bringing her very own touch of magic to Boux Avenue’s sexy Christmas campaign.
Donning the label’s most festive designs, the curvy blonde looks picture perfect in a range of bras, briefs and Christmas corsets.

Starry eyed: Ola is back as the face of Boux Avenue as she models their Christmas range
Describing their festive offering of lingerie, Boux Avenue said: ‘Christmas comes but once a year, so indulge your playful side with these flirtatious festive fancies. Santa just got glamorous..’
Accompanying the photographs is a flirty and fun video of the beauty in lingerie and top hat dancing and pouting to the sound of a Christmas tune.
Polish-born Ola has been the face and body of the brand, owned by Dragons’ Den’s Theo Paphitis, since she was signed up last April.
Santa’s little helping: Ola flaunts her curves in the festive themed briefs
Ola, whose natural curves are honed to perfection thanks to hours of dance practice previously said of her modelling: ‘My costumes on Strictly can be revealing, but lingerie is a whole new avenue for me to explore.’
Fortunately, the dancer, who married husband James, also a dancer, in 2003, says there are no issues with jealousy in her household where her revealing outfits are concerned.
Sensational: The brand describe her as ‘sensational’ and she looks happy to be back
Indeed, she has admitted in the past that her partner loves it when she shows off her body.
‘Where I might want to wear a more conservative dress and be more covered up, James prefers me to be more revealing,’ she said recently.
‘He’d have me in a mini-skirt and a top where you can see my cleavage every time if he could.’

The girl who dances with Michael Vaughan the cricketer on SCD (forget her name) has the best body ever in my opinion – kill for a figure like that!
