Quotes by Dita Von Teese
Dita Von Teese's insights on:
The prosecutor uttered the party line that would distinguish revue from burlesque for the next thirty years. “The difference is movement. On Broadway, unadorned female figures are used to artistic advantage in tableaux. They do not move.
I’m more attracted to glamour than natural beauty. The young Marilyn Monroe was a pretty girl in a sea of pretty girls. Then she had her hair bleached, fake eyelashes, and that’s when she became extraordinary. It’s that idea of what you’re not born with, you can create.
I always say, either take the steps to lose the weight you keep threatening to lose, or love the way you are.
When someone calls another individual ugly, all I see is that the one doing the insulting becomes instantly less beautiful. Consider it a compliment to be mocked for being different.
I’m for anyone trying any kind of look. The only barrier is yourself. Do not worry about what other people think. – Angelique Noire.
