Where would fashion be without literature?
Diana Vreeland
Balenciaga often said that women did not have to be perfect or beautiful to wear his clothes. When they wore his clothes, they became beautiful.
Diana Vreeland
A funny person is funny only for so long, but a wit can sit down and go on being spellbinding forever. One is not meant to laugh. One stays quiet and marvels. Spontaneously witty talk is without question the most fascinating entertainment there is.
Diana Vreeland
For goodness sakes, beware of curls… It is a great art to do them so that the girls not only look modern - but do not suddenly look very vulgar.
Diana Vreeland
The first thing to do is to arrange to be born in Paris. After that, everything follows quite naturally.

Diana Vreeland
Pleasure is everything.
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
Fragrances fill the senses with the mysterious.
Diana Vreeland
It's only intelligent to wish to look after yourself properly.
Diana Vreeland
Too much good taste can be boring
Diana Vreeland
When I arrived in America, I had these very dark red nails which some people objected to, but then some people object to absolutely everything.
Diana Vreeland
I think part of my success as an editor came from never worrying about a fact, a cause, an atmosphere. It was me—projecting to the public. That was my job. I think I always had a perfectly clear view of what was possible for the public. Give ‘em what they never knew they wanted.
