ICYMI: Dita Von Teese Wants to Make Pleasure Fun Again
While describing her affinity for fetish shoes, Dita Von Teese accidentally sums up her entire body of work. “It’s really about the unusual, the exquisite," she says,"something that you just don’t see every day.”
While burlesque has been referenced many times in pop culture, Von Teese says the performances themselves are still viewed as taboo. “There [are] so many people that imitate what I do, so what am I going to do to be inimitable? What am I going to do to take it to the next level were people are just ‘What? I don’t even know where to start with making a show like that.’ So that’s what I did during the pandemic.”
“One thing that’s wonderful, even in the last three years, I feel a little bit liberated from the idea of absolute perfectionism,” she says. Female entertainers are often treated as though their viability has an expiration date, but Von Teese rejects the notion that her age should change how she’s able to express herself. She points to performers her age and older as proof.
“I think a fetish shoe is something that feels precarious and dangerous and is clearly not meant for your day-to-day walking and living," she says."Maybe it’s a shoe you can’t walk in. Maybe it’s a shoe you have to crawl in.” “I’m not an expert, by the way,” she later clarifies after giving an illuminating explanation on the psychology of foot fetishes. “I just like talking to people about it.”
