Too much good taste can be boring
Diana Vreeland
I wasn't a fashion editor. I was the one and only fashion editor.
Diana Vreeland

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 adore artifice. I always have.
Diana Vreeland
I always say I hope to God I die in a town with a good tailor, a good shoemaker, and perhaps someone who's interested in a little quelque chose d'autre.

Diana Vreeland
It’s not about the dress you wear, but it’s about the life you lead in the dress.
Diana Vreeland
I'm terrible on facts. But I always have an idea. If you have an idea, you're well ahead
Diana Vreeland

Diana Vreeland
Where would fashion be without literature?
Diana Vreeland
Fashion must be the most intoxicating release from the banality of the world.
Diana Vreeland
All people are meant to be creative in a certain way. What way? Perhaps I was cut out to be a wonderful housewife, with a marvelous sense of cooking, being with my friends, running a perfect house. But I am not ambitious towards anything.
Diana Vreeland
Most people haven't got a point of view they need to have it given to them––and what's more, they expect it from you.
Diana Vreeland
When I discovered dancing, I learned to dream.
Diana Vreeland
People who eat white bread have no dreams.
Diana Vreeland
It's only intelligent to wish to look after yourself properly.
Diana Vreeland
Money has nothing to do with style at all, but naturally it helps every situation.
Diana Vreeland
