How Dita Von Teese Does an Updo

Dita Von Teese has a LOOK, a certain twist to everything she does that falls into a very narrow definition of style (which is sexy, pinup-y, and retro). But that doesn't mean she always goes for exactly the same hairstyle. Behold Dita in an updo (pictured with Elizabeth Olsen): She wore her bangs draped to the side, sculpted to evoke the idea of a victory roll (see an awesome how-to for one here) without actually being a victory roll. Then the back was pulled into a low side bun on the opposite side. And there was not one single flyaway in sight. Very elegant and '40s glam—and totally Von Teese. Would you expect anything less from her? Always on-point, this one.
