We were all excited when we heard that Dita Von Teese is partnering with Wonderbra to create a line of lingerie inspired by 40s and 50s underwear styles. It will be available any day now, and the suspense is killing us!

Dita knows a thing or two about anticipation, and keeping the fires stoked. In this video (pretty much safe for work) we catch a couple of glimpses of her wearing the new line, and swinging on a giant black bra (it will make sense when you see it.)

Even more exciting for us, she talks about someday maybe bringing out a line of vintage dress reproductions based on her fabulous personal collection. We would stand in line for days to get our hands on a copy of that green dress she wore to The Changeling premiere at Cannes. And if she does shoes, too? Thunk! (That was the sound of us swooning.) Even if they were wicked expensive, we'd sell our plasma if necessary! Please, some designer out there, do this with her!

In the gallery, a few of her gorgeous in gowns.

When lingerie is mentioned, Dita von Teese is probably one of the first celeb names to come to mind. And so, it makes perfect sense that she would launch her own lingerie line. After a sneak peek, we're ready to buy!

It's something you might expect to hear from a guy who spent the last night out bar hopping, but not from the geniuses that brought us the push-up bra. As the story goes, Wonderbra's modeling scouts interviewed the next smokin' hot supermodel of the future, but when she left they realized that they hadn't got her name or phone number. Now Wonderbra is apparently having to resort to a nationwide womanhunt for their missing model with the great rack.

For months, Wonderbra UK had been advertising an audition where they would select a model for the next year's billboard ads and breast cancer PSAs. When they narrowed it down to the lucky winner, from the more than 1,000 contestants, judges realized that someone had royally screwed things up. Apparently, the winning model's contact info had never been properly recorded. They think her name is "Kate or Katie," she's "5 ft 9 inches tall, and she's never done any modeling before." Good job guys.

After conducting a poll of more than 3,000 women, UK department store Debenham's has crowned the bust-boosting bra the #1 greatest fashion invention. Was there really any question? Second in line was the boot cut jeans, but it wasn't even close. Though the push-up didn't really catch on until the early 90's, women seem to think that the push-up is the most important weapon in their fashion arsenal to date. I got no problem with that.
Some people have been hinting that there's something wrong with women electing a fashion device that "exists purely for men" as their #1 fashion accessory. Do you think that women wear push-up bras exclusively for men? Personally, I think that's a bit of a stretch, women dress sexy for themselves and each other just as much or more than they do to impress the opposite sex. Either way, the push-up bra is the democratically elected winner in a poll where only women were allowed to vote -- and their votes must be respected.

I certainly don't think there's any shame in wearing a bra that is designed to accentuate. Men are wearing girdles and padded underwear to make them look more buff. Are men wearing these items purely for the benefit of women? I doubt it.

Here's a fairly obvious partnership -- Dita Von Teese and Wonderba. The burlesque dancer turned B-list celeb will not only be the new face of the boob-enhancing undergarments, but she'll also be collaborating with Victoria's Secret to create a limited edition collection called, not surprisingly, "Wonderbra by Dita Von Teese."

So what's so special about a bra designed by pseudo strip-tease artist? The plan is to make "wearable lingerie that will add a touch of glamor to people's lives." Von Teese will be designing a collection based on 1940s styles and vintage underwear designs -- which, to be fair, will probably look pretty good.

Expect to see the new collection in France and the UK by September. No news on when (of even if) it'll be available in the US.
