Here we have Dita Von Teese channeling her inner 18th century persona, wearing a Vivienne Westwood dress, complete with the pannier look and snug bodice, in a light blue etoile pattern. The look is completed with Christian Louboutin's amazing Marie Antoinette inspired shoes.
Love the dress. I may have to make a similar one for my niece. I also love that Ms. Von Teese takes care of her skin and does not fall into the "tanning trap".
I am quite in love! This is definitely a look I would love to recreate for the spring. She captures the essence of 18th century styling without it looking costumey or cutesy (like lolita styles).
I like the dress and love the shoes, but not together. Also, being a designer who cut his teeth during a toile craze, I guess I'm still not ready to fall back in love with it, classic though it may be. Meh.
I have been drooling over those shoes ever since I first saw them on "The Fashion Police"-blog! I wish I was a rich girl and could buy them (I came over a pair in my size on eBay once, but the price was insane, though it is understandable as there only exists 36 (?) pairs) Dita von Teese is such a beautiful and classy woman, I adore her.
Whether you wish you could time travel to the court of Versailles or the Highlands of Scotland, this comprehensive guide will walk you through how to make and wear your 18th century dream gown.
