I always knew the woman I wanted to be-I knew I wanted to be a woman who was independent a woman who was in the driving seat, a woman who didn't need for the man to decide.

More quotes by Diane von Furstenberg
The only way for a relationship to survive, I think, is to have no sex at all. After all, you marry for friendship, for companionship - and passion after a while ... pfffft. I mean, does it excite you when your left hand touches your right?

I sit in the sink (while applying makeup). I do. I've broken more sinks...I sit in the sink, on top of a big square sink in my bathroom with my feet in the basin so I'm very close to the mirror with the good light, and I'm very comfortable. I also manage to put my two phones in the sink so that nothing, but nothing, could get me out of there.

I'm not the only one most people's mothers are the most influential person in their life. But my mother survived the camps, and she was very strong. She made me strong, but she wanted me to be strong. That's more important.

I didn't really know what I wanted to do, but I knew the woman I wanted to become.

If you pay attention, everyone is a novel. The most boring person, if you sit down and really listen, is someone interesting.
Diane von Furstenberg
I wanted to be an independent woman, a woman who could pay for her bills, a woman who could run her own life - and I became that woman.

The important thing is to take your time and not get stressed.

In Sardinia one summer my best friend Marisa Berenson and I ironed each other's hair. We used a hot laundry iron and took turns putting our hair on the ironing board, literally ironing it. That's a recipe for straightening that may be highly successful, but is definitely not recommended.

The little black dress is the true friend...she travels with you...is patient and constant...you go to her when you don't know where else to go and she is ALWAYS reliable and timeless.
Diane von Furstenberg
No one should notice how your eyes are done or the color of your eyeshadow. They should just notice you and notice that you're beautiful, that you have beautiful eyes.

My favorite days are the ones where I deal only with my own team, design, marketing, working on the next accessories collection.
Diane von Furstenberg
I design for the woman who loves being a woman.

I never try to make a major fashion statement but I want to be the friend in a woman's closet. I make dresses that women get laid in.

The easier your hair is to manage the happier you'll be with it and the prettier you'll feel.
Diane von Furstenberg
Use your brains, your common sense, and do not become an object. The way you look is important, but who you are and how you project it is eventually who you will become and how you will appear.
Diane von Furstenberg
You don't want to exaggerate any feature noticeably. I think only truly beautiful women can exaggerate and they usually don't have to.

If there is one rule for dressing, for fashion, it’s pretty much the same rule as for everything else in life: Don’t go against yourself, don’t go against your own nature. It’s only going to show.

We all have a Wonder Woman inside us.
