I wanted to be an empowered woman, and I became an empowered woman. And now I want to empower every woman. And I do it through my clothes, I do it through my words, I do it through my money, I do it through everything.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
What I think I sell with my clothes is confidence, so hopefully all my dresses, my accessories, are friends to the women. When you open the closet, and your eyes are swollen, and you don't like the way you look, you go to your friends.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
If you're a good person, the goodness will continue through your descendants.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
If you like trekking, go to the Himalayas or Peru. I love those kinds of trips. But it all depends on your own life and what you like and what you expect.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
All women are the same, really: They are strong, but they are afraid of their own strength.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
Harbour Island in the Bahamas is beautiful, with turquoise water and pink sand.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
Usually, the fairy tale ends with the girl marrying the prince. But mine started as soon as the marriage was over.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
The real story is that I am very free, that I've managed to be who I wanted to be without compromising.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
I was born in Belgium. I went to school in England and in Switzerland, then I came to America, so I really feel like I am a citizen of the world.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
Eighteen months before I was born, my mother was in Auschwitz. She weighed 49 pounds. She always told me that God saved her so she could give me life. I was born out of nothing.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
My biggest vice is playing solitaire on my iPad. It's bad. I mean, it's ridiculous.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
I used to be very insecure about my curly hair, because I lived in a country where everybody had blonde straight hair.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
I never knew what I wanted to do, but I knew the kind of woman I wanted to be.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
I've always liked wrinkles. When I was a young girl, I used to make lines on my face with my nails because I loved Jeanne Moreau. I always wanted to be older; I always added years to my life. For the longest time, if people thought I was older, I would take it as a compliment.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
Go to a place where you're not going to be stressed, because a honeymoon itself can be a stressful thing.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
Do I believe in reincarnation? Well, let's say that I believe in karma. I think you make your own karma.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
I think all races are represented in America much more than in many other places, but it's also nice to remind people about that ethnic mix. I would like to see more black models and women from different ethnic backgrounds, but I also think that when you are casting, you just choose the most beautiful girl you can find.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
When I was young, I lived like an old woman, and when I got old, I had to live like a young person.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
Just don't go to a place where everything is too expensive... it'll put your husband in a bad mood.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
I didn't really know what I wanted to do, but I knew the woman I wanted to become.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
When you come to a hotel room, you want it to be grand, functional and beautiful. But you don't want things that are not useful. Sometimes you go to hotels and there are all these frames and pictures of people you don't know, and you end up hiding everything in the drawer, and then housekeeping come and put it out again.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
Beauty is perfect in its imperfections, so you just have to go with the imperfections.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
When you get into a hotel room, you lock the door, and you know there is a secrecy, there is a luxury, there is fantasy. There is comfort. There is reassurance.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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!
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
Simplicity and sexiness, that's what people want. At a price that's not outrageous.
Quote by -Diane von Furstenberg
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.
