Ultra Glam Looks with Dita Von Teese's Style and Lulu Guinness Handbags
Dita Von Teese is renowned for her ultra glamorous style which has more than a hint of 1950's retro quirkiness about it.
Dita made a name for herself as a burlesque dancer and went on to become one of the pioneers of vintage style by re-inventing the pin-up look made famous by like likes of Bettie Page in the 1950s.
Dita's fashion sense is all about making the most of her stunning hourglass figure and she has an appreciation of fabulous designers such as Christian Dior, Alexander McQueen and Marc Jacobs.
It's not just her clothes which Dita is famous for paying acute attention to though as she also never steps out without a perfectly coordinated handbag.
Below we take a look at some of Dita's key looks and the beautiful handbags which bring her stunning outfits together.
Lulu Guinness Small Jenny Handbag
Dita takes her career very seriously so you are highly unlikely to see her falling out of nightclubs or flashing her knickers when stepping out of a car.
She is all about ladylike demure with plenty of sexiness, so her formalwear always shows off her feminine curves.
Usually spotted in smart skirt-suits, Dita goes for calf length pencil skirts, in a retro print such as hounds-tooth and then nips the jacket in at the waist.
Dita is a fan of quilted handbags and is often spotted carrying black clutch bags with quilted designs and gold metalwork.
A self confessed fan of Lulu Guinness, Dita would love the stunning retro look of the super smart Lulu Guinness Small Jenny Handbag in Black Patent Leather which features a cute and quirky touch as the quilted pattern is made from tiny pursed lips.
Lulu Guinness Felicity Clutch
OK, so Dita is rarely spotted in anything you could call casual but when the occasion demands she will combine her retro glamour with a slightly more dressed down look and still pull it off with such panache that she makes all the best dressed lists.
Dita was spotted at a book signing wearing a stunning calf length Alexander McQueen dress in electric blue which she complemented with a sparkly Union Jack clutch bag from the same designer.
You can easily recreate the look by snapping up the ever popular Lulu Guinness Union Jack Oversized Felicity Clutch.
Lulu Guinness Feather Fan
Dita Von Teese knows how to up the stakes when it comes to dressing for the red carpet and she often channels the sensational looks of Hollywood's classic stars such as Marlene Dietrich and Rita Hayworth.
Whether she's sporting high-waist trousers, a crisp white shirt and a top hat or going all out in a plunging ball gown, Dita always accessorises with a beautiful bag.
Try the luxurious Lulu Guinness Ostrich Feather Drop Fan to channel the burlesque look or the stunning Lulu Guinness Collectable Blue Silk Embroidered Birdcage which is a work of art.
Whatever the occasion, you will find a handbag worthy of the queen of glamour, Dita Von Teese, from the collection of Lulu Guinness handbags at Handbags and Gladrags.
