DVF Fall 2013 Show Brings Bold Prints, Colors And Glam
February 11th, 2013 by ChristenIf you’ve ever imagined yourself our clubbing during the height of the glam rock era, you might just find yourself adorned in Diane Von Furstenberg’s Fall 2013 Collection. Mixed with heavy prints, bold colors and bright patterns – the disco-infused theme wasn’t just the inspiration for the fall collection, it heavily influenced the runway soundtrack instantly transforming the DVF Fall 2013 show audience to a less-than-typical evening at the iconic Studio 54.

One by one as each model graced the runway, we saw it all including DVF signature wrap dresses, blazer and skinny pants in “fetish pink,” gold lamé jackets, a turquoise floor-length halter dress, a rabbit-fur black vest, and a dress made of chain mail. Dizzying black-and-white prints were inspired by graphic artist M.C.

Diane Von Furstenberg described her woman for next fall: “Wrapped in a swirl of twisted chain link, she steps into the night. With an effortless glamour, she winks at herself and smiles at her shadow … In sky-high metallic heels, she swaggers across the cityscape … She is the rock star and the muse of her own life. Her clothes are her friends. Life is a party.”

NYFW – Diane von Furstenberg Fall 2012: Sultry, Seductive & Bold
February 14th, 2012 by ChristenOnce the music began, the seduction that is DVF spilled in. This season’s DVF looks may have donned the same color palette as other collections but the designs are altogether different. From beautiful body hugging dresses to bordeaux pencil skirts and beautiful color-blocked electric tones throughout the entire collection – the seducing appeal of this collection is enough to bring out the diva in anyone.
Not surprisingly, prints made appearances within the collection, but unlike other designer collections you won’t find an overbalance of hounds tooth here. But don’t take my word for it, take a look at the rest of the Diane von Furstenberg Fall 2012 collection for yourself…

November 2nd, 2011 by ChristenThis November, Match.com, one of the world’s largest online dating sites, and Diane von Furstenberg will join forces to help women hone their first-date style. With an emphasis on the ultimate accessory: DIANE, the designer’s new fragrance, and the message “Be the woman you want to be!” the two brands will co-host three unique styling events offering Match.com members exclusive expert advice on how to dress for success using three popular first-date scenarios: cappuccinos, cocktails and dinner.
These events will be held in DVF retail stores located in three key markets: New York City (Meatpacking) event on November 2, followed by the Dallas and Miami (Bal Harbour) events, which will both occur on November 10.
“Dating is really all about confidence,” says Diane von Furstenberg. “It is about dressing in a way that makes you feel comfortable and beautiful. Match.com and I wanted to do something fun to encourage women to be themselves and to go for it!”
To underscore the connection between scent and dating, Match.com’s unparalleled data on American singles has revealed that fragrance is a powerful feature of attraction.
