Overview

On one side, Dita Von Teese shares the beauty of the burlesque world, with bubblegum dreams and show tunes to strip to. Flip over for fantasies in fetish with dramatic costumes and the allure of submission.

Burlesque and the Art of the Teese

"I advocate glamour. Every day. Every minute."

I'm a good dancer and a nice girl, but I'm a great showgirl. I sell, in a word, magic. Burlesque is a world of illusion and dreams and of course, the striptease. Whether I am bathing in my martini glass, riding my sparkling carousel horse, or emerging from my giant gold powder compact, I live out my most glamorous fantasies by bringing nostalgic imagery to life.

Let me show you my world of gorgeous pin-ups, tantalizing stripteases, and femmes fatales. I'll give you a glimpse into my life, but a lady never reveals all.

Fetish and the Art of the Teese

You may have come for the fetish. Or you may just be sneaking a peek at this mysterious and peculiar other side. No matter what you've come for, there is something for you to indulge in.

My world of fetish may not be the one that you would expect. As a burlesque performer, I entice my audience, bringing their minds closer and closer to sex and then — as good temptress must — snatching it away. As a fetish star, I apply the same techniques. . . .

An opera-length kid leather glove, a strict wasp waist, an impossibly high patent leather heel, a severely painted red lip. . . . Come with me into my world of decadent fetishism.

    Teese me!

    Great coffee table book and [somewhat] informative look at the art of burlesque, complete with beautiful pictures of Dita! One may get the impression that the pictorials inside may hold stark nudity but not many do- it's all about the teese! Intriguing and a must have for anyone fascinated by burlesque!

    Unbiased Review from a Friend....

    Heather is an amazing talent in whatever she puts her mind to- this book is just another accomplishment in her long line of things done and to be done. Away from being 'Dita', she is as gorgeous in person without makeup and in her regular, uniquely vintage style. She is all Teese and no sleeze- a very classy book from a very classy act.

    Fabulously Gorgeous!

    I just have to say that Dita is the epitome of glamour. She is beautiful not only in her appearance but also in her personality. She does truly advocate glamour everyday and I strive to be just as fabulous as she is. This book was interesting and provided just enough history about burlesque to show the public the classy side of stripping. I absolutely enjoyed every page, especially the tips and tricks of how to look like a 20's vixen, a 50's bombshell, or a cheesecake pinup. This book also inspired me as I'm on the road to becoming a fashion designer. Dita definitely shines just as much as the Swarovski crystals she uses in her costumes.

    Very Elegant

    This book is amazing. I kept putting it down just to savor everything. The pictures without a doubt are wonderful, sexy and if you really love to look at old hollywood glamor with a little update and want to try to capture that look this is the book for you. And reading about fetish and the different types of fetishes was very interesting, even if you're not into it, you can read about and it takes you there. I plan on taking photos such as miss Dita, she inspired me to capture these wonderful styles and to incorporate my own style too.
