Dita Von Teese

How much is her site membership? The hair tutorial video almost sounds worth it! Are there any other tutorial type vids for hair or makeup?

That is a beautiful car.

I believe her site is $19.95.
For 30 days only.

Actually, since I am borderline obsessed with Dita's hair, I recently tweeted her asking what her favorite curling method was. She tweeted back (so starstruck, lol!) that she loves hot rollers, and she has a tutorial on Dita.net for members. Well, curiosity got the best of me and I paid the membership for the tutorial. It's a two part video she shot on her iPad in her own bathroom.

Well, I'm also dying to know what her bathroom looks like. :lol:

I thought I paid $28, but I could be mistaken. Anyway, it was very much worth it for me.. I'm going to watch the tutorial again before canceling my membership.

After reading TheRedSquares comment about Dita having an online tutorial, I went and ordered the membership. It is
19.95 for one month with reoccurring payment but can cancel anytime
or 29.95 for a one month membership with no reoccurring bill

The tutorial is like RedSquare wrote. She does not do anything special as it is like watching LisaFreemontStreet on TY. It was worth it for me though to actual see how she does it! I just wish she didn't have black hair so the details could be seen more easily.

Also, it sucks that most of her other video clips can be downloaded, but the hair tutorial cannot.

Aside, there are some nice pics of her home in there (including a few of her bathroom which I know some of you ladies have been wanting to see...mostly just the walls/lamps).

"Also, it sucks that most of her other video clips can be downloaded, but the hair tutorial cannot."

Well, one must pay the bills somehow!!

 

[bellabella327]

I doubt the hair tutorial vids are paying the bills [huh]

Von Follies, Dita's lingerie collection for Target Australia goes on sale today. Here's the link to the online shop. Frankly, I'm a bit underwhelmed. I can't see anything I really want to buy.

I looked back through a few pages and couldn't see a mention of this but apologies if it's already been said.

Dita has started selling her half moon manicured false nails that are designed for her.

I'm quite tempted - I always find it a real pain to do a moonicure although I am getting better with time and patience.

Not a great collection - nothing that I haven't seen before - pretty underwhelming indeed.....

Agree. Looks like what you'd find at H&M on an ordinary Tuesday.

 

[ThemThereEyes]

I'm surprised. For the most part, it looks like stuff I'd find in department stores as standard stock.

 

[bunnyb.gal]

+1 :yawn:

I would have expected to see something more, um, bullet-y, and less, melon-y in the way of bras, and more high-waisted stuff. Heinie-floss, you can get anywhere.

 

[fortworthgal]

Cosign.

I would have expected to see more vintage-inspired styles. That looks like standard stock.

 

[Flicka]

I'm especially disappointed in the lack of high-wasted garments. Low slung hipsters... *mutter*

 

[LinaSofia]

yeah... not impressed! Agree with what all of you have said already. I'm surprised at how un-vintage it actually is, she has gone for the mainstream market whole-heartedly, and to be a bit cynical about it, it'll probably pay off for her in sales. Maybe she was pressured to deliver something "mass-marketable"? Because I can't imagine that she isn't a vintage underwear aficionado herself!

This is my theory, given that Target is a huge mass-marketer, and from comparing the results of her collaboration with Secrets In Lace to this stuff. We've seen things like this before, and probably even own similar items - I know I do. I looked at the blue bras and remembered the strapless bra that sits in the back of my drawer (HBC about 7 years ago). They are so similar, they could be from the same collection!

 

[Highball Emy]

I imagine she was expected not only to be more mainstream, but to keep costs RIGHT down.

 

[C-dot]

I imagine she was expected not only to be more mainstream, but to keep costs RIGHT down.

Which probably accounts for those cheap looking garters...

I also suspect that this was nothing more than a celebrity endorsement (i.e., Dita didn't actually design them).
