Lollipop and Alpenrock Dirndl

From designer Lola Paltinger, comes this line of hip, sexy and flamboyant dirndls that have decorated the likes of Paris Hilton, Dita von Teese and Selma Hayak.

A daring party frock for the modern Bavarian girl.

Wiesn, Tracht & mehr

First to recommend

Description

If you're going to go to the Oktoberfest, ladies, a dirndl is an absolute must. This low-cut-yet-curiously-wholesome and sexy dress from Bavaria is the perfect Oktoberfest frock. Not only will you fit into the whole "milieu", the dirndl has surprising staying power as a party outfit.

The tight bodice shows off your charms (or creates what isn't normally there) while the full skirt covers the beer belly you'll inevitably have after a day of drinking by the liter. Choose a dark color dress to absorb spills and voila: you'll look almost as good at the end of the day as when you began.

In Munich, get yourself outfitted at the local "Wiesn, Tracht & Mehr" store. In one of several shops located around the city center you can choose from a huge selection of new and vintage styles. A complete dirndl outfit, with blouse, skirt and knee socks, starts at about $130.

Happy Heidi Collection - Lola Paltinger

First to recommend

Description

Another gorgeous line from Lola Paltinger, designed for one of the largest and most respected purveyors of traditional Bavarian clothing in Bavaria, Loden-Frey. Drawing from a more traditional, alp-hunter color palette, the Happy Heidi collection retains that pop-culture flair that I think makes Lola Paltinger so fun.

Red Gingham Bavarian Blouse

First to recommend

Description

A cute and basic start for those who may not be ready to plunge into a dirndl is this cute red gingham Bavarian style blouse. The Oktoberfest is also a harvest festival, don this little blouse with jeans, put your hair in braids, and show them you're a country girl at heart.

Julia von Trentini Couture

First to recommend

Description

This is not your normal beer tent wear.

Maybe you've got a table reserved at Oktoberfest at a more upscale tent like Hippodrome or you've got a VIP pass into the Kaefer tent with all the celebrities, whatever the reason: you need a gorgeous dirndl and are willing to invest.

First stop: Julia von Trentini Couture for a custom dirndl. Modern, hip and sexy but with enough traditional thrown in that you're not off track. These dirndls are gorgeous.

Dirndl Wunder (Wonder) - Dirndle Lingerie

First to recommend

Description

Dress yourself for Oktoberfest from top to bottom and from the inside out. Set the right foundation to party with Bavarian-style lingerie from Triumph. For those of you who are bustier, bolder, or both, skip the dirndle and wear the corset top with jeans.

Be ready for attention!

Triumph - Dirndl Zauber - Push-up bra

Description

One of the obvious and unbreakable rules at Oktoberfest:

Ladies present your goods to the best of your ability. Push it UP and OUT.

And if you accidentally push it too far, you can be sure whatever you show is stylish with this lingerie with this Oktoberfest-friendly line from Triumph.

Dirndlpunk - Angelika M. Zwerenz

First to recommend

Description

Dirndlpunk is where I'd turn to for a bodice.

Most dirndls come in one piece - which is good for keeping you securely pushed up and tucked in where it matters. But the separate bodice comes in handy when you're not in a skirt mood. Just toss on a pair of jeans or pair this with your lederhosen and you're good to go.

Women's Bavarian Lederhosen

First to recommend

Description

Not into skirts? Not a problem!

Ladies often make the Lederhosen look hotter than the men. Paired with a cute blouse and accessories, these traditional leather pants can look both feminine and sexy.
