The Best: Dita Von Teese Behold the Queen of Retro. Von Teese has made her fortune as a virtuoso in vintage goodness. While she may do more than hint at the past with her look, she knows what looks good on her and sticks with it. The secret is to create a retro look the way it should have been, not the way it really was. This was a great week in hair for Dita and other celebrities.

I love those retro styles! Although I didn't feel that either of Ellen Pompeo's looks were flattering on her, the rest of the celebs had great "best" looks.

How can you cut down Milla for looking like she was in the time of the style when right after you have Ellen who for both pictures I felt like I was staring at photos from the early 1900's???

Drew Barrymore is truly an unattractive woman.

In another section the author said she nailed the "retro" headband look. So which is it?
