The undisputed icon of vintage glamour, Dita Von Teese, returns to the spotlight of Goodwood Revival 2025, reaffirming her status as a global ambassador of timeless style. Known for her uncompromising elegance and devotion to the art of classic fashion, Dita will lead this year’s Revival celebration—a high-octane blend of historic motorsport, sartorial excellence, and second-hand chic.
Taking place 12–14 September, Goodwood Revival is more than a heritage event; it’s a cultural happening. The Sussex-based motor circuit transforms into a living homage to mid-century elegance, with thousands donning period attire. Dita Von Teese, whose style reverberates through the worlds of couture and car culture alike, will grace the Revival Style Stage on Friday in a live conversation with Dandy Wellington, New York’s own gentleman activist and authority on Black sartorial history.
A true collector at heart, Dita’s love of classic cars matches her wardrobe: she’s restored and driven everything from a 1940 LaSalle convertible to her latest muse—a 1952 Woodill Wildfire. Her presence at Goodwood weaves together threads of personal history, performance, and automotive artistry.
Von Teese will also judge the iconic Best Dressed competition on Sunday 14 September, alongside a panel including Paula Sutton (of Hill House Vintage fame), and DJs Art Jefferson and Ginger Fizz, who bring retro rhythm to Revival’s soundtrack.
This year’s Revive & Thrive programme—now in its fifth edition—echoes Victoryof’s own ethos: repair, re-wear, and rethink style. Located near the Revival High Street, the Style Village fuses luxury vintage shopping with immersive theatre, catwalks, photography moments, and a platform for deeper fashion conversations.
In the words of the Duke of Richmond:
“Dita Von Teese personifies the glamour we celebrate. Her presence brings global focus to the Revival’s message—Vintage Style, Not Vintage Values—and invites a new generation to engage with fashion that transcends time.”
