A decidedly adult twist on the old-school animation process.. A trio of flip books.portrays the alabaster-skinned vixen shedding vintage clothes or glittery costumes through three of her favorite routines.... For extra fun, flip 'em in reverse-and watch the burlesque queen put all her clothes back on. -- Los Angeles Times
Author description
Dita Von Teese, the undisputed Queen of Burlesque and author of BURLESQUE AND THE ART OF THE TEESE/FETISH AND THE ART OF THE TEESE, has appeared in Vanity Fair, Vogue, Elle, Playboy, and international issues of nearly every fashion magazine. Dita has performed at events ranging from Elton John's Life Ball and the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show to exclusive parties for Cointreau, Louis Vuitton, Christian Louboutin, Marc Jacobs, and Roland Mouret. Well known for her elaborate props and costumes, Dita is in demand throughout the United States, as well as in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, and Hong Kong. The work of celebrity portraitist Sheryl Nields represents fifteen years of perfectly controlled chaos. From her earliest published work to recent commissions for Esquire, Harper's, Flaunt, Interview, Premiere, Arena UK,and Elle, each of Sheryl Nields's images-from the intense to the spontaneous-dissolves the barriers between artist and subject. She's shot dozens of top people in Hollywood and the music world. A graduate of Parsons School of Design, she further shaped her creative vision as an assistant to both Patrick Demarchelier and Stephane Sednaoui.
