Burlesque star, Dita Von Teese, recently launched a capsule collection of five outfits under the label, Muse, in Melbourne, Australia. And now, she’s set up a Facebook page to interact with fans of her designs.

According to her website, the collection, “Is the epitome of classic retro- glamour and  features five fabulous pieces, including vintage-inspired dresses and a tulle – layered trench coat (called the VIP coat).”

Each dress includes couture detailing and grosgrain ribbon that cinches the waist to create a svelte feminine silhouette for which the fashion muse is so renowned.

Describing the VIP Coat, Dita says, “I’ve always said that the key to achieving glamour on the go is to have a very chic coat. I collect coats from the 1950s, because the hourglass fit and flare silhouette is so flattering. I wanted to bring this shape to the classic black trench coat, and this one has wonderful details like a hidden pocket, a tulle lining for a bit of volume, and the lovely grosgrain waist ribbon, which is a tribute to vintage couture. I might add that one of my favorite tools of seduction is a sexy coat, which I wear with nothing but black stockings and lingerie underneath!”
