More quotes by Diane von Furstenberg
There's design and there's art. Good design is total harmony. There's no better designer than nature - if you look at a branch or a leaf, it's perfect. It's all function. Art is different. It's about emotion. It's about suffering and beauty - but mostly suffering!

You cannot have a healthy body without drinking a great deal of water. But remember, you can't just drink a glass of water and tell a glass of water to please go straight to your skin and moisturize your complexion. Water has to be there all the time, doing what it does naturally in a healthy body.

Style is something each of us already has, all we need to do is find it.
Diane von Furstenberg
It's very often true that some women look better without makeup, but that's only during the day.
Diane von Furstenberg
Being attractive for a few hours some evening is hardly worth being that unattractive all day (in hot rollers). Being yourself and being natural with a man is wonderful, but being downright unattractive with him is foolish.
Diane von Furstenberg
Just don't go to a place where everything is too expensive... it'll put your husband in a bad mood.
Diane von Furstenberg
For me, traveling and living are the same. How you travel is a symbol of your life.
Diane von Furstenberg
I am a traveler. I am a nomad. I rarely sleep in the same bed more than three or four nights. And I know hotel life better than anyone.

Be the Woman You Want to Be.
Diane von Furstenberg
I had arranged a birthday party for him and my children, who are all Aquarians. Instead, we got married. I ran out of excuses. It was just us and my children.

Do I believe in reincarnation? Well, let's say that I believe in karma. I think you make your own karma.

My son loves the Hotel du Cap, in the south of France.

The most important thing is to be healthy, to drink a lot of water, to fight gravity as much as possible. I am one of the few people who decided I wasn't going to do any invasion with my face.
Diane von Furstenberg
We all have a Wonder Woman inside us.
Diane von Furstenberg
When you get into a hotel room, you lock the door, and you know there is a secrecy, there is a luxury, there is fantasy. There is comfort. There is reassurance.

I am almost a vegetarian, and I meditate, do yoga and love to hike.
