We know her more with her sexyness: Who is Dita Von Teese?

Her fascination with clothes, make-up, and underwear since she was a child later pushed her into the world of burlesque. Growing up to be a ballerina from a very young age, Teese's belief in ballet was an important factor in shaping her body.

Her great interest in lingerie led her to work as a salesperson for a lingerie brand and later rose to become a merchandising.

Teese's interest in choosing the field she wanted to study when she came to university was also effective. She finished the costume history department and worked as a stylist in period films. Teese, who also studied costume design, has always been the art director of the photo shoots after she was thrown into the world of burlesque.

Teese, who started dancing in a strip club at the age of 18, realized the stripper's lack of originality and created an image for herself with a vintage-influenced look and gloves up to the elbows.

Teese, who started modeling and took on the Bettie Page-inspired pin-up look, later became a fetish model. She became famous as the 'Tightlacer' in the fetish world with the corsets she did not take off. Thus, she brought her waist circumference to a thinner level than it was.

She was a guest in the 1999, 2001, and 2002 issues of Playboy with her photographs. This placed her in the status of a sex symbol, with a different stance.

The stage decorations she used in her burlesque dance shows inspired by the musical films of the 1930s and 40s are also interesting: a carousel, a giant powder box, a bathtub with a shower head, and most famously, a huge martini glass in which she dances…

Von Teese's first book, 'Burlesque and the Art of the Teese/Fetish and the Art of the Teese', was published under its original name. Teese, who wrote her thoughts on the history of burlesque and fetish, is one of the few experts on this subject; both in theory and in practice...

Dita Von Teese is also in close contact with the fashion world. Teese, who is on many 'best-dressed lists', is one of the personalities you can see most on the front rows of fashion shows, especially if these are Christian Dior and Marc Jacobs fashion shows. She chooses her clothes facing.

The artist, whom we admire as a staunch PETA supporter, has also been involved in PETA's anti-fur campaigns. She also showed her design in her own special interest area; By designing an underwear collection for Wonderbra…

If it comes to your private life; A colleague of her best friend. The burlesque performance artist, Catherine D'lish, also designed all of Teese's burlesque stage costumes.

Her most famous relationship was with Marilyn Manson, a longtime fan of Teese. On Manson's 32nd birthday (2001), Teese knocked on his door with a bottle of Absinthe and started the relationship. The couple, who married in 2005, ended when Teese wanted a divorce due to 'irreconcilable differences'. Unfortunately, Manson received the divorce papers Teese had sent, again on his birthday. All that's left is the footage of Dita playing in the video for Manson's song 'Mobscene'...

Dita Von Teese breaks silence over allegations of abuse against ex-husband Marilyn Manson

On Monday, February 1, 2021, Westworld star Evan Rachel Wood released a press release alleging that the musician had seduced and abused her "over the years".

After Wood's statement, other women made similar accusations against Manson. They too claimed to suffer from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), nightmares, and OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) after their relationship with Manson ended.

Burlesque artist Von Teese, who was married to the musician between 2005 and 2006, said on her Instagram account that she was not abused by Manson.
