DITA Von Teese saves money in these tricky financial times – by modelling her own lingerie range.

The burlesque queen parades a batch of her Von Follies by Dita Von Teese wares in eye-catching new ads for the brand.
Her kinky collection was inspired by her passion for smalls and her own stash of vintage lingerie.
It's said to combine sophistication and sensuality with subtle touches to give the essence of a sultry 1950s glamour girl.
Commenting on her designs, Dita said: "There are so many vintage lingerie pieces I love that I haven't been able to find in all my years of collecting.

Top of the spots ... Dita Von Teese

"I wanted to design pieces that are tributes to my vintage obsessions, to make them beautiful and functional, while modernising them for everyday wear.

Sofa so good ... Dita Von Teese "I've had a longtime fascination with the 1950's era overwire bras. It's something that has been quite a task to create, but the end result is so chic, and so unique, I'm very proud of it.

"It's a statement piece meant to be seen. I am also very happy with the beautiful panties we've made and can't wait to have them in my lingerie drawer.

"They are so comfortable and sexy, and flattering on any shape."

Looks - Dress Of The Week – 21/01/12

With all the excitement of the Golden Globes this week, there were so many other interesting outfits that were overlooked. Here is the roundup.

Pretty & Poised

Rachel Bilson wore a vanilla mint frothy Chanel frock to the 'Art of Elysium' gala. It features an embellished bodice with full tulle and feather fringed skirt. This isn't a look that just anyone could pull off, but the 'Hart of Dixie' actress does so charmingly. She carried a cream clutch and wore satin Casadei pumps.

Rachel Zoe attended the Golden Globes After Party in one of her own designs, a glossy white and gold foil scallop print gown with ruffle cap-sleeves. A quilted gold clutch completed her impressive look.

Kirsten Dunst was graceful in a romantic embroidered black Valentino gown with sheer yoke and sleeves. I like that she turned the makeup up a notch for a change.

Kaley Cuoco is still on a fashion high since hosting last week's People Choice Awards. The blonde actress attended the Golden Globes After Party looking delightful in a silk and tulle white Zuhair Murad dress with tiered skirt and wide satin belt.

In The Navy

Navy dresses were also a hit on the red (actually blue) carpet this week.

Nicki Hilton looked glamourous in a midnight blue Giorgio Armani gown with asymmetrical sequined cut-out bodice and straight-fit skirt.

Emma Roberts caught my attention in a stunning silky blue Zac Posen gown, which has several cut-outs on the neckline and panel-frill skirt. 

Stana Katic strikes the style iron once again in a Keven Hall design with strapless bodice and fully ruffled skirt. All these ladies graced the blue carpet at the InStyle Golden Globes After Party in Hollywood this week.

Creative Coats

It's a good week for Kirsten Dunst, who features twice on this list. She brightened up the Rodarte Dinner at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, in a chic mustard yellow Stella McCartney one-button blazer. She wore it over a prim ivory shirt, and gold and yellow printed brocade trousers, both by Rodarte. We can't see it well, but her heels are by Jimmy Choo.
Trendsetter Kate Moss looked fabulous in a faux fur leopard print jacket by Topshop, worn with an all-black ensemble and fringed scarf. Her black tie-up boots are by Balmain.
Jessica Alba brought her savvy style to the streets of New York, looking vibrant in a two-tone green-to-black Doo.ri coat, tangerine top and multi-shaded floral Erdem trousers. Her quirky colourful ensemble was complete with teal and white Barbara Bui sandals.

Heidi Klum to Divorce Seal

Heidi Klum is filing for divorce from Seal, according to reports.

Sources say the supermodel will file divorce papers in L.A. County Superior Court as early as next week, citing "irreconcilable differences" as the cause for the divorce.

The couple married in May 2005 and have three biological children together. Seal also adopted Heidi's eldest daughter from a prior relationship with Flavio Briatore.

So far, neither party has confirmed the report, first posted by TMZ. It is unclear what prompted the imminent dissolution of the marriage or how the matter leaked.

The pair, long regarded as one of Hollywood's most stable relationships, is famous for renewing their vows every year on their anniversary ... in a lavish ceremony.

They are also not PDA-shy when it comes to love for each other and their family. Suffice it to say, if this news is indeed true, it would be a major surprise to most.

As for splitting up their assets, there's a lot on the line.

According to Forbes, in the last year alone, Heidi Klum earned more than $20 million. It's unclear how much Seal, an award-winning recording artist, made.
