Dita Von Teese’s Unique L.A. Mansion Reveals Everything About Her

It would be fair to say that Dita Von Teese is known for her unique sense of style. While the so-called Queen of Burlesque may be famous for wearing relatively little, her wardrobe is actually packed with vintage-inspired pieces with a sexy twist. And though Von Teese’s fashion sense gives fans an insight into the star’s personality, a look inside her home is even more revealing.

Von Teese first rose to prominence in 2002 when she appeared on the cover of Playboy magazine wearing not much other than a corset and some stockings. By that point, the dancer was already dating the metal star Marilyn Manson; later on she would subsequently marry and then divorce him. And these things combined to cement Von Teese’s status as a cult superstar.

But away from her high-profile dating history and sexy photoshoots, Von Teese was capitalizing on her distinctive image. Over the years, the burlesque-star-turned-businesswoman has designed her own range of seductive underwear, written a tome about what makes people beautiful and launched a series of fragrances. And it would seem that her lucrative ventures have enabled her to buy her dream home, which as you might expect, fully reflects her quirky personality.

The home that Von Teese acquired was built in the Tudor Revival style. In keeping with its period-inspired design, the property exudes old-style glamour with its Gothic arches and beamed ceilings. And since the burlesque star got her hands on it, the interior of the house has been given the full-on Von Teese treatment.

Von Teese’s first love, it seems, was vintage. The star said as much when she allowed cameras from Architectural Digest magazine a glimpse inside her home in March 2020. The dancer explained, “I started wearing vintage clothes because I couldn’t afford all the cool designer jeans my friends had.”
