Dressed: The History of Fashion
Arts:Fashion & Beauty
We are kicking off our seventh season of Dressed in spectacular style as we are joined all this week by the one and only Dita Von Teese!
A longtime vintage collector and star of the neo-burlesque scene, Dita's impact on contemporary visual culture cannot be underestimated. In part one of this two-part episode, we chat about her relationship with vintage style on and off stage and some of the amazing designers she works with to create her unique brand of unparalleled glamour.
