With several years under her belt as one of the world's top burlesque dancers, Dita Von Teese has long been proficient in the art of putting together head-turning ensembles.

And things were no different when the 42-year-old star stepped out in a pom-pom covered black veil for her friend Alexis Mabille's show at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week on Monday.

The stunning beauty teamed the unusual headgear with a plunging blue gown - featuring a shoulder bow - and a pair of pom-pom heels, while she accessorised with a small patterned clutch bag.

Wearing her signature siren red lipstick, the raven-haired star complemented her outfit with a stunning diamond ring and a pair of matching drop earrings.

Before jetting from California to France, she took to her social media accounts to share a shot of herself in a black morning suit alongside designer Alexis.

'Headed to Paris to celebrate my dear friend Alexis Mabille's 10 years of Haute Couture!' Dita captioned the shot.

And, perhaps to serve as a hint of what she was planning to wear on Monday, Dita also uploaded a photograph of herself in a stunning black glittering gown - complete with a veiled hat.

'Flashback to a fitting with Elie Saab during Paris Haute Couture for a one of my performance costumes,' she wrote alongside the black-and-white image.

Last year, Dita - ex-wife of rocker Marilyn Manson - spoke with Vogue about how she approaches her style in everyday life.

'It always depends on the weather and my day,' she told the fashion bible. 'On a casual day, I usually go out and about in ballet flats and a dress or a voluminous fifties-style skirt with a slim-fitting T-shirt.

'It feels free, comfortable, and casual, yet still in keeping with my personal style. I love dresses because I can zip and go, no fussing around putting a look together.'

Of how she prepares mentally for her day ahead, she said: 'I do Pilates nearly every morning. Ideally I’d have sex too!'
