My clothes are great for a honeymoon: They're light and sexy, colorful and pretty, and not expensive.
Diane von Furstenberg
The girls who were unanimously considered beautiful often rested on their beauty alone. I felt I had to do things, to be intelligent and develop a personality in order to be seen as attractive. By the time I realized maybe I wasn't plain and might even possibly be pretty, I had already trained myself to be a little more interesting and informed.
Diane von Furstenberg
I’ve always been inspired by women, and my mission was to inspire women. I always wanted to become a certain kind of woman and I became that woman through fashion. It was a dialogue. I would see that the wrap dress made those women confident, and made them act with confidence.
Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Diane von Furstenberg
We are living in such a troubled world that fashion seems completely irrelevant. Yet...it's a very, very mysterious thing. Why all of a sudden do people like yellow? Why all of a sudden do people wear combat boots?
Diane von Furstenberg
Building a wardrobe is like building a circle of friends your whole life.... Your own beauty is to be yourself, but of course we need tools and accessories.
Diane von Furstenberg
If you're trying to lose weight, you just have to eat less. I mean that.
Diane von Furstenberg
Italy will always have the best food.
Diane von Furstenberg
I've never met a woman who is not strong, but sometimes they don't let it out. Then there's a tragedy, and then all of a sudden that strength comes. My message is let the strength come out before the tragedy.
Diane von Furstenberg
For me, traveling and living are the same. How you travel is a symbol of your life.
Diane von Furstenberg
I communicate mostly via e-mail and receive hundreds of e-mails a day.
Diane von Furstenberg
That wonderful and terribly frightening journey of self-discovery. That process of growth, of being an independent person, of learning who you are and what you want from life, is the real secret of life, happiness and beauty.
Diane von Furstenberg
Be the Woman You Want to Be.
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.
Diane von Furstenberg
The important thing is to believe in what you do. Have a big dream and take small steps.
Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Diane von Furstenberg
Don't let any of your good habits get boring.
Diane von Furstenberg
It's not about going to a party. It's life as a party.
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
The secret to a great marriage is having a great husband.
