(Source:  Lionel Deluy and John Juniper; Dita Von Teese Eyewear Femme Totale Sunglasses, $285; Sophisticat Sunglasses, $285)Dita Von Teese is on a serious branding roll. The enterprising burlesque star has afragrance line, a red-hot lingerie label and even a collection of maternity bras. Now, she's adding to her burgeoning portfolio with a range of sunglasses designed with the appropriately named cult-fave eyewear brand Dita.  

Even though the lineup of 

cat

 eye–style shades ($235–$285) has a distinctly retro vibe, we're happy to report they aren't the least bit gimmicky or costume-y. In fact, the slick materials, gradient lenses and two-tone designs lend these sunnies a foxy-meets-edgy polish. And the silhouettes? They're the most flattering versions we've seen of the hot-again eyewear style.

Our take: wear them with messy waves and an oversized boyfriend sweater, and you'll channel a modern femme fatale.
