More quotes by Diane von Furstenberg
I gave up on my looks a long time ago.
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
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 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
I always wanted to be a femme fatale. Even when I was a young girl, I never really wanted to be a girl. I wanted to be a woman.
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
The success of every single woman is the inspiration for another.
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.
Diane von Furstenberg
The other day I went to a school in Harlem to talk to some 7th graders [12-year-olds] and I said, ‘If I have to give you some advice, the most important thing is: the sooner you become your own best friend, the better your life will be,’
Diane von Furstenberg
I didn't really know what I wanted to do, but I knew the woman I wanted to become.
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
If you're trying to lose weight, you just have to eat less. I mean that.
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
For me, traveling and living are the same. How you travel is a symbol of your life.
Diane von Furstenberg
It's the woman you should remember, not the dress, ever.
Diane von Furstenberg
I am not allowed to be afraid. My mother made me like that. As a child, if I was afraid of the dark, she would lock me in the closet. Things like this. And she would talk about the time she spent in the concentration camp, but not about being afraid, only about the good side of it.
Diane von Furstenberg
Resisting a beautiful chocolate cake or a wonderful foie gras is as difficult as (the idea of) saying no to Paul Newman.
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.
Diane von Furstenberg
The older you get, the more you should learn to love life and appreciate the beauty that comes with age.
Diane von Furstenberg
The secret is to enjoy being you.
