dita von teese launches own limited edition lingerie line

New York (ANI): American burlesque artist dita von teese has launched her own limited edition lingerie line with Wonderbra. Von Teese, 35, started the "Wonderbra by dita von teese" collection, as an inspiration to women and it includes garter belts, panties and bras inspired by old Hollywood glamour.

"Lingerie should not be something you just put on for your lover; you should do it for you," the New York Daily News quoted Von Teese as saying in a statement. "It''s not about seducing men, it''s about embracing womanhood," she said.

The lingerie not only makes a woman feel powerful, but also very sexy. Among the items are bras, which have quick-release magnetic clasps, enabling the wearer to remove them in a jiffy. The dancer''s collection will be launched in Europe on Sept. 23, but can be purchased stateside from ASOS.com.
