Diana Vreeland
There's only one very good life and that's the life you know you want and you make it yourself.
Diana Vreeland
Where Chanel came from in France is anyone’s guess. She said one thing one day and another thing the next. She was a peasant—and a genius. Peasants and geniuses are the only people who count and she was both.
Diana Vreeland
I loathe narcissism, but I approve of vanity.
Diana Vreeland
Unshined shoes are the end of civilization.
Diana Vreeland
There was a time when it was considered vulgar and unnecessary to pursue money, but today anyone who doesn't believe in money must be out of their minds!
Diana Vreeland
It’s not about the dress you wear, but it’s about the life you lead in the dress.
