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
The only real elegance is in the mind if you've got that, the rest really comes from it.
Diana Vreeland
Too much good taste can be very boring. Independent style, on the other hand, can be very inspiring.
Diana Vreeland
