(Cover) - EN Star Style - Dita Von Teese was thrilled to rediscover a 1940s dress she hadnt worn for 15 years.

The burlesque dancer is celebrated for her individual style, which incorporates retro Hollywood glamour and ladylike accessories.

Despite being a regular guest at high-end fashion shows in Paris and Milan, Dita often does a lot of her clothes shopping in thrift stores, and has acquired a vast clothing collection over the years.

Because she has so many gorgeous garments, Dita can often lose track of her wardrobe contents, and was ecstatic to discover a dress she hadnt worn in over a decade yesterday.

Pulled out random vintage dress I've had for 15 years+, never worn. Tried it~CHIC!!Oh, all the wasted years! Forgive me, 40s burgundy dress (sic)! wrote Dita on her Twitter account.

Dita is very proud of her new find, and will no doubt be photographed looking elegant in it very soon. The savvy star says she always makes sure she recycles old clothing, and doesnt abide by the rule that old clothes should be thrown away.

I think that fashion rule about throwing things away that you haven't worn in a year is dumb. In my life, I disprove it time+time again (sic), she added. (C) Cover Media
