Diane von Furstenburg – Forever Young

There is an adage in fashion, goes something like – “If you wore a trend the first time, you’re too old to wear it when it returns.” Did the grande dame Diane von Furstenburg get where she is by following such reductive rules? Mais non. This cheeky iconoclast wears her curly hair long, her red-soled heels high, and she lives by the declaration proffered prior to her Fall 2013 show – “ It’s not that you are going to a party, life is a party!” DVF’s party had smiling models, cheery fabrics in pink, red, rust, and royal blue, funky animal prints and lurex, disco diva classics, soft touchable hair and a host of fluid, flattering, very easy to wear dresses and trousers.
