Dita Von Teese and Courtney Love at the Art of Elysium Gala in Los Angeles on January 5, 2019. Dita said on her app that the power went out on her block just as she was getting ready for the gala which means that she couldn’t use hot rollers, a hairdryer and a steamer for a red 50s dress she actually wanted to wear. She wanted to cancel at first but then decided to wear a different dress and do her hair this way. Like a true queen, she did her makeup with candles and a flashlight pointed toward her vanity mirror.
