Diana Vreeland
Image
Beauty has nothing to do with possession. If possession and beauty must go together, then we are lost souls. A beautiful flower is not to be possessed, it's there to be beheld. … It's there for your pleasure.

Image
Don't look left nor right and never compete. Never. Watching the other guy is what kills all forms of energy.

A lie to get out of something, or take an advantage for oneself, that’s one thing but a lie to make life more interesting—well, that’s entirely different.

Where would fashion be without literature?
Diana Vreeland
Image
I think i always had a perfectly clear view of what was possible for the public. Give'em what they never knew they wanted.
Diana Vreeland
Image
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.

Image
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
Image
The only real elegance is in the mind if you've got that, the rest really comes from it.
Diana Vreeland
Image
You're not supposed to give people what they want, you're supposed to give them what they don't know that they want yet.
