Burlesque star Dita Von Teese is the perfect advert for her own underwear collection.
Today the petite designer and dancer unveiled her vintage-inspired lingerie range for Debenhams and while the 40-year-old American didn't totally undress she made sure all eyes were on the product in a plunging bodycon dress.
Von Teese teamed the midnight blue velvet dress with a lace bra, immaculate hair and make-up, diamonds and her favourite Louboutin brand shoes.
