vintage inspired plus size lingerie
Aug 052011
Dita Von Teese must love her Aussie fans! The new collection will be launched there first then in the UK and international markets in 2012. I can’t seem to find any more news on it, but I’m sure the release date will be announced soon. Current news includes her plans to brand a perfume.
This new was announced in Dita’s Spring Newsletter. Read the press release:
Australian brand development powerhouse, lime door brands has signed a global deal with international burlesque star and fashion icon Dita Von Teese. The agreement sees lime door brands and the performer becoming co-owners of a number of brands.
Lime door brands’ first offering with Von Teese will be a line of lingerie and associated undergarments. The collection — with sizes ranging from extra-small to plus-sizes, and bras up to an E-cup — will offer a touch of glamour to women of all sizes and shapes. The line is intended for global distribution.
Dita Von Teese said “I love lingerie that fits well and is also beautiful, bringing function together with glamour and sensuality. I am especially excited to be designing lingerie with a vast sizing range so that women of all shapes and sizes can have a beautiful, sensual lingerie wardrobe that suits their body type. Indulging in elegant lingerie isn’t about the seduction of another person, it’s about seducing yourself first and embracing womanhood and femininity.”
“Dita Von Teese is world-renowned as a burlesque performer. She is probably best described as an old-school Hollywood siren,” said lime door brands’ Chief Executive Officer, Michele Hamdorf. “With a Twitter following over 674,000, Dita Von Teese is arguably one of the biggest global style icons of today,” she added. “Her success has been based on her strong head for business and her distinctiveness. As a brand strategist and developer, I am certain that our collaboration will prove similarly successful”.
According to Hamdorf, it is anticipated that the product offering will be extended in time, with the introduction of a dress range and other categories. After its introduction into Australia later this year, plans are already afoot for an immediate expansion into international markets — starting with the UK in 2012.
“This is an exciting opportunity,” Dita said. “I’m delighted to be in the process of creating both a line of retro-glamorous clothing and lingerie in a new partnership with Australian company lime door brands.”

Okay, so perhaps your favorite lingerie period is not the 20s, 30s, 40s or 50s.

The hard-to-find and nearly sold-out-everywhere Shirley of Hollywood Platinum Collection, inspired by Marilyn Monroe, is from a couple of years ago. Lingerie from this line crop up every now and then, but not often! The Shirley of Hollywood Platinum Collection is made with soft charmeuse satin, sparkle knit, trapunto stitch cups, lace and lace overlay and is very reminiscent of glamorous Old Hollywood. Colors include black, platinum white, red and black and a little pink too.
The Shirley of Hollywood Platinum Collection is not to be confused with another Marilyn Monroe inspired collection they also came out with a few years after this one – which looked *shudder* hideous. They made a small print of her face and added polka dots and ruffles in satin. The entire collection looked more Minnie Mouse than Marilyn Monroe, in my opinion.
Onto the Platinum Collection! I think it’s, by far, the best Marilyn Monroe inspired lingerie collection out there. Some of those I’ve seen just kind of hint at Marilyn’s style, but this one gets it spot on.
Corsets Are A Girl’s Best Friend
Marilyn actually only wore a corset in a few period films, like the River of No Return
. She did not, in real life, need to wear a corset. But these are beautifully done and inspired by her! I can see where they took the inspiration from. These would be gorgeous for a burlesque routine when you want that classy glitz and glam.
The first corset from the left, with the bow, is also available in Red & Black and plus sizes at Amazon.
The second is only still availble in Black/Silver at Amazon.
The third, which is the most stunning of the three can also be worn strapless. It’s available in sizes 36 and 38 right now, from this page at Amazon
.
All of these corsets can also be found at the Pampered Passions Shirley of Hollywood section, in plus sizes as well.
These first two corsets are actually the same corset! This satin corset enhanced with trapunto and lace is completely reversible – two looks in one! The third is a stretch lace teddiette, also available in red. The first corset can be found here at Amazon
and the third here. Again, all of them are available at the Pampered Passions Shirley of Hollywood section.
Marilyn’s Heat Wave 1950s Pinup Girl 3-Piece Playsuit Romper
I think this is the best out of their entire collection and that’s saying something! Excellent job, Shirley of Hollywood! I want more of this!
The entire set includes the red satin bra top with softly padded under wired clips, adjustable shoulder straps, stretch mesh bra back, with hook and eye closure. The romper is made in stretch knit with a super scoop neckline and red satin sash. I think this playful suit looks best with matching wedges for a true pinup girl look. Get it here at Amazon.
Sugar Kane Starstruck Sparkle Stretch Knit
I love the rhinestone accent on the black Starstruck Sparkle knit bustier. Bustier features a rhinestone applique, fashion boning, and hook and eye closure in the back. Comes with a matching G-string panty. Sized according to your bra band size. Found here on Amazon.
The Starstruck Sparkle romantic knit mini dress has slimming boning to enhance your figure and a halter neck. Get it here on Amazon.
Marilyn Monroe Inspired Babydoll
Romantic Marilyn Monroe inspired charmeuse babydoll has slightly padded under wired cups, romantic ruffles and a waste-slimming bow. Comes with the g-string and Shirley of Hollywood signature Marilyn Rhinestone Star. Available up to a size large and only in ivory, here on Amazon
. This babydoll is available in all colors and all sizes (including plus sizes) in the Shirley of Hollywood section on Pampered Passions.
