“My mother never, ever told me about evilness. She only saw the beautiful things... she wanted to protect me from it.”

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.
