April 13, 2011The Bettie Page Store Will Host Storm For An In-Store Appearance At Its Haight/Ashbury San Francisco Location
When Tempest Storm appeared in the 1955 cult classic film Teaserama co-starring legendary Bettie Page, history was made. Page, who passed in 2008, became an iconic figure whose legacy has inspired new generations and fashion companies such as Bettie Page Clothing to recreate her idolized pin up look.
More than 55 years later, the risqué days of the ‘New And Naughty’ twosome will be relived in spirit. On Saturday, April 16, Storm will pay homage to her late co-star at the Bettie Page Clothing boutique in San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury District where she will sign autographs and take photos from noon to 5 p.m. with new and old admirers alike.
Just in time for Page’s April 22 birthday, the retailer is also unveiling the highly-anticipated Spring 2011 collection and Beach Bash line of vintage styled swimwear, hats, beach bags and playsuits. The clothing labels are created under the fashion powerhouse, Designs By Tatyana®, launched in 2007 by commercial financier Jan Glaser and former high fashion model Tatyana Khomaykova.
The recent revival of the classic look has caught the attention of a new generation of glamour girls including Katy Perry, Holly Madison, Christina Aguilera, Denise Richards, Leighton Meester, P!nk and the designer’s spokesmodel and Playboy Magazine’s 2011 Playmate Of The Year, Claire Sinclair.
Bettie Paige Clothing boutiques are located in Hollywood, Las Vegas, San Diego, San Francisco and coming soon to Minneapolis. Stores are also expected to hit Boston and Miami this year. Fashionistas can also shop the vintage looks online at www.bettiepageclothing.com and www.beachbashbeachwear.com.
The Bettie Page Clothing Store is located at 1529 Haight St., San Francisco, CA 94117. Tel: (415) 864-6001.
