  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #1

    A challenging economy is always good for design. It unites necessity and functionality. You are forced to be creative with poor materials.


  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #2

    All I can tell you is that 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 Quote #3

    All women are the same, really: They are strong, but they are afraid of their own strength.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #4

    Animals come from nature. They were not designed. All my inspiration comes from nature, whether it's an animal or the layout of bark or of a leaf. Sometimes my patterns are very bold, and you can barely see where they come from, but all the textures and all the prints come out of nature.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #5

    Attitude is everything.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #6

    Clarity is the most important thing. I can compare clarity to pruning in gardening. You know, you need to be clear. If you are not clear, nothing is going to happen. You have to be clear. Then you have to be confident about your vision. And after that, you just have to put a lot of work in.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #7

    I design for the woman who loves being a woman.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #8

    I don't like to talk about my dreams. I like to make them happen. I prefer to talk about them when they're done.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #9

    I find great happiness in my relationships with old friends, living mirrors that reflect histories of laughter and sorrow, triumphs and failures, births and deaths, on both sides.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #10

    I had arranged a birthday party for him and my children, who are all Aquarians. Instead, we got married. I ran out of excuses. It was just us and my children.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #11

    I never like to think that I design for a particular person. I design for the woman I wanted to be, the woman I used to be, and - to some degree - the woman I'm still a little piece of.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #12

    I never modeled myself after anyone. The person who had most influence on me was my mother, but it was really for her strength and courage more than her style, even though she had a lot of style. In a weird way, looking at pictures of me when I was 17 or 18, I was dressing the same way. I haven't changed very much.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #13

    I travel in so many different ways; I travel high, I rough it... it all depends on who I travel with.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #14

    I travel light. I think the most important thing is to be in a good mood and enjoy life, wherever you are.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #15

    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 Quote #16

    I was lucky enough to have it all. To be successful in business, to have children, to raise them on my own, and to travel and live my life. It was a lot of work, but it's a privilege to have been able to do it.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #17

    I'm not tired of who I am. That would be sad!

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #18

    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 Quote #19

    Italy will always have the best food.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #20

    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 Quote #21

    Now is the time to become a myth.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #22

    The most important relationship in your life is the relationship you have with yourself. Because no matter what happens, you will always be with yourself.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #23

    The most important relationship you have in life is the one you have with yourself. And then after that, I'd say once you have that, it may be hard work, but you can actually design your life.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #24

    The older I get, the more impressed I am with women. I have yet to meet a woman who is not strong. They don't exist.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #25

    The secret to a great marriage is having a great husband.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #26

    The trees at Cloudwalk have been my friends for forty years. I'm sure if I were sawed in half, our rings would match.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #27

    The way I design generally is very much travel-oriented because that is my life. That's why I make clothes that are so light and so easy to pack and a little bit seasonless.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #28

    There's design, and there's art. Good design is total harmony. There's no better designer than nature - if you look at a branch or a leaf, it's perfect. It's all function. Art is different. It's about emotion. It's about suffering and beauty - but mostly suffering!

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #29

    Usually, the fairy tale ends with the girl marrying the prince. But mine started as soon as the marriage was over.

  • Diane Von Furstenberg Quote #30

    When a woman becomes her own best friend life is easier.
