“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.”

Belgian fashion designer

Diane von Fürstenberg is a Belgian fashion designer best known for creating the wrap dress. She came to prominence in 1969, when she married Prince Egon von Fürstenberg and entered the German princely House of Fürstenberg. After their separation in 1972 and divorce in 1983, she kept his family name and remained widely identified with her work in fashion. Her public profile has been closely tied to that signature design, which became the detail most strongly associated with her name.
