Dita: Stripteese

Rezensionen / Stimmen

A decidedly adult twist on the old-school animation process... A trio of flip books...portrays the alabaster-skinned vixen shedding vintage clothes or glittery costumes through three of her favorite routines... For extra fun, flip 'em in reverse-and watch the burlesque queen put all her clothes back on. -- Los Angeles Times "A highlight of Art Basel Miami Beach...Von Teese mounted a stage... in a pool at the Delano Hotel and did one of her signature burlesque shows, a coy striptease that left her naked except for [pink crystal panties] and pasties, straddling a giant lipstick that bucked like a mechanical bull." -- New York Times "If anyone thought that Dita Von Teese was a passing character upon the pop culture stage, they'd be advised to take a closer look... This queen of burlesque is proving to be the sort of, multifaceted player who is anything but a flash in the pan." -- Interview "Burlesque dancer and model Dita Von Teese has not only mastered the art of taking her clothes off, but she's also the best in the business." -- Esquire UK "In a sea of naked-faced, denim-clad Hollywood beauties, [Dita's] rouged, primped appearance and unabashed glamour were as exotic as a bird of paradise in a room full of daisies." -- Elle "Just when you thought all was lost, along comes burlesque superheroine Dita Von Teese, a curvaceous, alabaster-skinned...immaculately coiffed stripper with a fondness for retro fashions and the attention to detail to do it right. Dita is giving burlesque a sweetly seductive second life and...more than a touch of class." -- Vanity Fair "Dita was like a revelation to me the first time I met her. She is a dream come true, the ultimate elegant showgirl." -- Christian Louboutin, Los Angeles Times "What made her such a compelling front-row presence was her knack for dressing head to toe in the work of the designer showing...but never once compromising her unique Bettie Page look. It was a magical trick... Become a brand unto yourself. Know your signatures and stay true to them." -- Vogue "Uninhibited, seriously smart and wickedly funny, Von Teese is a woman who refuses to allow her truth to be defined by moments captured thru the lenses of the paparazzi" -- 944 Magazine "She is the queen of the modern burlesque revival, not just because she's mind-bendingly gorgeous and knows how to move, but because her commitment to the details of her art borders on the obsessive." -- Flaunt Magazine "She's a jewel. The most beautiful and inspiring creature I've ever seen - so exquisite, so fine. She's a real showgirl." -- Mr. Pearl, Vogue "The entrancing pocket Venus Dita Von Teese, the queen of the burlesque revival, she of the Vargas Girl looks and the Gibson-girl figure. Dita's old-fashioned act conjures images of Gypsy Rose Lee, another legendary strip-teaser known for dressing up beautifully as she was for undressing." -- Vogue "She radiates old Hollywood glamour...With her raven hair, exciting body, engaging face and up-for-anything demeanor, Dita is a Bettie Page for our time." -- Playboy "Self-named, self-invented, self-satisfying: Dita Von Teese is the greatest romantic creation of the modern age." -- Pop "We've had more calls about Dita than any other show we've done, even Madonna. We could have sold out four nights and then some." -- Marc Smith, Koko, on selling out the famed UK venue in less than 24 hours
