Diana Vreeland
Too much good taste can be boring
Diana Vreeland
Pink is the navy blue of India.
Diana Vreeland
Don't you loathe the word workaholic? It has nothing to do with an important thing, that you and your secretary are at the office until 6:30. But that's life, kiddo. 24-hour work doesn't go on in America. 24-hour work is what Italy and Holland did after the war. The lights never went out!
Diana Vreeland
The best thing about London is Paris.
Diana Vreeland
Blue jeans are the most beautiful things since the gondola.
