"  Who: Dita von Teese What: Last night&amp;#039;s Paris Fashion Week Haute Couture Fall 2011 Closing Party hosted by Chambre Syndicale de la Couture at Trianon Palace Wear: Alexis Mabille fall 2010 couture gown Even though Dita von Teese didn&amp;#039;t attend any of the Fall 2011 Couture shows, the 38-year-old model, actress, and burlesque artist did celebrate with fashion insiders last night at the closing party for Paris fashion week. For the event, Dita, who never diverges far from her glamorous 1940s style, chose a luxurious floor-skimming Alexis Mabille gown from last fall&amp;#039;s couture collection. The embellished dress emphasized the burlesque-star&amp;#039;s best assets with its blue-and-gold patterned bodice and intricate pink-petaled flowers that cascaded over the subtlely-embroidered long skirt. From neck up, Dita stayed true to her retro style with signature ruby red lips, dark eyeliner, and a wavy Old Hollywood hairstyle. Dita von Teese is preparing to headline the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego&amp;#039;s 35th annual gala, Monte Carlo Goes Burlesque, in September.
