Comments on: Style icons: ten sex goddesses http://www.queensofvintage.com/style-icons-the-10-most-iconic-vintage-sex-goddesses/ The online magazine for vintage lovers Tue, 22 May 2012 20:38:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Bailey http://www.queensofvintage.com/style-icons-the-10-most-iconic-vintage-sex-goddesses/#comment-1848 Bailey Sun, 21 Mar 2010 04:24:58 +0000 http://www.queensofvintage.com/?p=1191#comment-1848 I've never been a big fan of Dita von Teese, nor Betty Page. I think unlike Monroe and Hepburn there lacks a bit of actual talent. I do think Page was a very good fetish model, but it's hard for me to see her as an icon of an era considering she was rather niche. Some people who go into the vintage/retro lifestyle end up going for the psychobilly sect, which is fine but lacks accuracy. In the end you're left with a jumbled mash-up of eras with little regard to history and circumstance. I have nothing against Page personally, but I find it rather hard to believe she had such a following as she does now. Von Teese herself would most likely never venture far out of gentleman's clubs on the Vegas strip if our attitudes hadn't changed so much over the years.

You should have your articles all on one page, otherwise people are going to be disinclined to read them.

It's great to see someone give credit to the gal that started it all. As a kid who loved cartoons as a kid (and still does) BB was my first exposure to cheesecake, spit-curls and garters. Just look where it got me! WWW.Dita.Net WWW.LanaLandis.com WWW.LolitaGirlClothing.com LOL! It’s great to see someone give credit to the gal that started it all.
