If it isn't a passion, it isn't burning, it isn't on fire, you haven't lived.
Diana Vreeland
Blue jeans are the most beautiful things since the gondola.
Diana Vreeland
What do I think about the way most people dress? Most people are not something one thinks about.
Diana Vreeland
Still, my dream in life is to come home and think of absolutely nothing. After all, you can’t think all the time.
Diana Vreeland
The best time to leave a party is when the party’s just beginning. There’s no drink that kills except the drink that you didn’t want to take, as the saying goes, and there’s no hour that kills except the hour you stayed after you wanted to go home.
Diana Vreeland
I like to indulge myself by sitting up late without having to do anything in the morning.
Diana Vreeland
The only real elegance is in the mind if you've got that, the rest really comes from it.

Pink is the navy blue of India.

I was always sort of a loner, I suppose. I always had to think out everything for myself... I suppose that is what you call a loner.

All my life I've pursued the perfect red.

One thing I hold against Americans is that they have no flair for the rain. They seem unsettled by it it's against them: they take it as an assault, an inconvenience! But rain is so wonderfully cleansing, so refreshing, so calming...
Diana Vreeland
A good photograph was never what I was looking for. I like to have a point. I had to have a point or I didn't have a picture. This is what I've always found so fascinating about paparazzi pictures. They catch something unintended, on the wing... they get that thing. It's the revelation of personality.
Diana Vreeland
All my life I’ve pursued the perfect red. I can never get painters to mix it for me. It’s exactly as if I’d said, ‘I want rococo with a spot of Gothic in it and a bit of Buddhist temple’—they have no idea what I’m talking about. About the best red is to copy the color of a child’s cap in any Renaissance portrait.

I wasn't a fashion editor. I was the one and only fashion editor.
