Style Cabana

Diane von Furstenberg is a legacy built around a simple – but elegant – jersey wrap dress. These dresses were – and still are – a symbol of womanhood and feminine influence and served as the cornerstone to a fashion empire still powering full steam ahead. Winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America, Diane has never been one to jeopardize her visions or ideals for the sake of anyone.

Each season features a new print, new cut, an all new look. Comparing the dress conception to the composition of an orchestra production, Diane is the queen of taking a thought, pairing it with a print, determining the desired movement from the fabrics, and making it sing. Where Calvin Klein might be the sovereign of understated simplicity, Diane von Furtstenberg is the sultaness of vibrancy.

Though her empire was built on affordability and accessibility, Diane has moved beyond this. After over 40 years in the business, she has earned the right to be more exclusive in her distribution, opting to work with luxury specialty retail department stores like Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, as well as in high-style locales such as Paris, Los Angeles and New York.
