As soon as I saw a picture of this woman from her youth compared to today, I oogled at her beauty. :wub: She is just gorgeous and she needs a thread.

I think she's intelligent and so smart about the business and the art of creating clothing for women.

A climax to the American sportswear wrapping tradition came in the 1970s via the sensation of Von Furstenberg's wrap dress. Its fundamental form was already deeply embedded in the American designer sportswear tradition; a new woman designer translated the style into 1970s fabrics and colors, generally brighter, bolder, and more synthetic (and stretchy) than the early examples to which the silhouette and design principle are indebted.
 
Are you trying to make history when you design?

VON FURSTENBERG: Do you think when I created that stupid wrap dress I thought it was going to be with me for the rest of my life? You just do what you think is right.

Gloria Vanderbilt once said that when she saw her for the first time, at a party sometime in seventies, she was stoned by how gorgeous Diane was.
And Gloria was not the only one to mention that Diane actually was one of the most beautiful women on NY social scene of that time.

Diane's first husband reminds me of Peter Dundas a little ^_^
