5 out of 5 stars Stunning and Beautiful   January 18, 2008

I couldn't wait to get my hands on this book when it came out and it's only now that I am writing my own review.

I love every page of this book and recently I went to her only british book signing at Waterstones and I could not decide which page I wanted her to sign! (She is even more beautiful and amazing in person!!!) Buy it and then treasure this book forever, if you love Dita, Burlesque, old movie star glamour, lingerie....anything girly!



4 out of 5 stars Stunning photography if a little sparse   January 13, 2008
I adore Dita, I'd love to kidnap her and keep her under my bed but alas it is not to be.
I loved that this book came in two parts, the front has dita in softer, artistic glamour poses, and the back more fetish and burlesque glamour. The book is a little basic, with bullet points which does give off a little "dummies guide" kind of feel...but over all its worth the money.



5 out of 5 stars lovely   November 1, 2007
A great book, beautiful photographs and a real inspiration. Well worth having. Dita is a real officianado of everything glamourous and i really enjoy looking through this book whenever i need a boost of self belief and confidence to really express myself. vive le nouveux burlesque revolution!


1 out of 5 stars Overpriced , Overrated and the same goes for the book as well   September 29, 2007

Overpriced calendar. I love burlesque , which can be witty , alluring , sexy and creative. This is a bunch of pictures with hollow commentary. If you want pictures to gawk at well there you go this book is perfect for you. If you're getting this book because you want to know more about Dita von Teese well it's pretty vacuous so are Dita's live perfomances.


4 out of 5 stars What a tease!   September 14, 2007

This is a beautifully photographed book telling a brief story of the history of burlesque without being too heavy. If you are interested in period costume underwear from the 1920s to 1950s, this may also be of interest. The fetish side is a treat for all leather, rubber, latex, high heels and hosiery afficionados too. A good buy for two books in one. It also reveals how ugly ducklings (and believe me, Dita looks quite weird as a child with blonde hair!) can transform into vampy, albeit slightly gothic, type swans.
