YSL creative director Stefano Pilati’s program noted that he wanted no part of anything obvious in his latest collection: “Here it is the spirit of a thing that is paramount; this spirit is given significance by trace and circumscribed space rather than by literal evidence.”

Dita Von Teese sits front and center at the Jean Paul Gaultier PFW Spring/Summer 2008 show on Tuesday in Paris, France. (Of course, she’s wearing his collection.)

“Movement is crucial. For me clothes on a hanger are just a still life,” Gaultier said after presenting his collection, which opened and closed with a performance by three dancers. “Dancers have a very interesting relationship with clothes…they have a way of appropriating them and giving them a different dimension.”

Here’s another tip from the 36-year-old burlesque beauty on how to look good in underwear: “Rainbow Bright: Don’t be afraid of color. I think a flash of bright silk under everyday clothes looks fabulous. If you need a neutral option for light-colored clothes, try shell pink or icy blue instead of the usual white or ivory. And you can never go wrong with black lace - it’s something every woman should have in her drawer.”

Dita Von Teese, who turned 36 yesterday, shops around Paris, France with a female friend on Saturday.

The burlesque queen launched her new WonderBra line last week. Here are some tips she gave to Telegraph readers on how to look good in underwear:

“Turn the Lights Down Low” — The real secret to looking great in lingerie? Good lighting. I’m not in bad shape, but it’s still the most important thing. Lighting is one of the most carefully calculated parts of any burlesque show, and after 15 years of performing I know what looks good and what doesn’t. Soft pink light is far and away the most flattering. Overhead light can be harsh and unflattering, so opt for mid-level instead. Or just turn them down - I have dimmer switches in every room of my home!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DITA!!!

Dita Von Teese launches her new “Wonderbra by Dita Von Teese” collection on Tuesday at the Covent Garden Piazza in London.

The 35-year-old burlesque star explained how her interest in burlesque started. “A lot of the movies I watched were about showgirls and they’d be backstage getting dressed, tightening their corsets and I became fascinated by lingerie as a result, Dita told the Daily Record.

“I began to steal stuff out of my mother’s underwear drawer and I was obsessed with the idea of ‘When do I become a woman and get to wear this stuff’?,” she said.
