sometimes, dita von teese directly bypasses "elegant dressing" for "gaudy burlesque eccentricity", but when she gets things right, she looks flawless. now, dita tells us about her first bra experience, which seems so completely contrary to the point she's at right now.
"My first bra was not very exciting. I was a late bloomer — the last of my girlfriends to get one. It was this horrible training bra-type thing, but it prompted me to save my money and buy my own darn bra. My mom was like, ‘You can’t have the black lace one.’ And I was like, ‘Why not?’ I’ve never equated beautiful lingerie with seduction or sex. It’s not about trying to get a man. Not at all. It’s about surrounding myself with beauty in my everyday life — whether it’s a bra or a notebook. I want everything around me to be attractive because I look at it every day."i admit that i have a hard time believing she doesn't connect foxy lingerie to seduction and sex, since seduction and sexuality is essentially her bread and butter. but i still enjoy her positive outlook.
