Dita Von Teese on Her Love of Technicolor & Red Lipstick

“I love a red lip because I love Technicolor. I love watching movies in all the magnified vibrancy promised by that marvel of cinematic technology. Take Betty Grable, who simply shined with that powder-blue eye shadow, that beautiful pink cheek, the golden hair, and that coral-red lip. All those colors slay me. I love color on the face. If somebody tries to swipe pale lipstick on me, I feel dead, like there’s nothing there. I like the drama and the joy of color. I want to live in Technicolor!”
