βI didnβt know what I wanted to do,Β but I always knew the woman I wanted to be,βΒ Diane Von Furstenberg.
This is the woman who pretty much started βgirl powerβ long beforeΒ the Spice Girls made it an anthem, before Madonna, Debbie Harry or even Margaret Thatcher took further to the forefront of women’s evolutionΒ of the 21st century.
Diane Von Furstenberg is the woman who famously once said, βI didnβt know what I wanted to do, but I always knew the woman I wanted to be,βΒ created one of theΒ most iconic dressesΒ of the twenty first century: the wrap dress.
A simplistic fashionΒ innovation that was born in 1974 and wasΒ made to be wornΒ for all occasions.
Designed to be worn outΒ to aΒ night club, going to a cafΓ© to catch up with friends and even to the office.
Its a dress that is made for any body shape and is a contradiction all in one: stylish & sexy for your man but then perfectly demure when youΒ have dinner with his parents.
The wrap dress continues to be a best seller for DVF as it accentuates (and compliments) the womanβs figure, displaying a combination of strength,Β sexuality, individualityΒ and femininity. It’s a dress that is simplistic yet it radiates high glamour.
This dress continues to be in style every year and is a must for any wardrobe. So whether you buy an original DVF or a ‘copy cat’ version from another brand, it will be a dress that will stand the test of time in terms of style: timeless piece that will never fashion or style.
Who knew that this simple but yet brilliant simple dress would take the fashion world by storm, and continue its reinvention of evolution of someΒ forty years later.

The iconic wrap dress come’s in many different styles in the DVF range.

DVFβs style is all aboutΒ empowering women.

I fell in love with the style of Diane Von Furstenberg when I was just a pre-teen,Β flipping through fashion magazines and seeing her breathtaking effortless designs splashed all over Vogue, Harpers Bazar, and Elle… dreaming thatΒ one day I will get to own one of her famous wrap dresses. I do own a couple of copy cat versions but sadly not Β anΒ original… yet.
Well, basically any item from DVF especially the wrap romper! Β Love!! Dreams are meant to be made and one day I plan on achieving this one. Haha!
And thatβs what Diane Von Furstenberg is all about: believing in yourself, having faith and confidence, being brave and asking for what you want to achieve.
People may not respond to your vision or dream, but keep persisting and you will get to be where you are meant to be.
