I used to work with her and she was very funny and very self-deprecating. Someone once asked her about her ancestry at a lunch and she replied "I've always assumed that somewhere along the line it involved a horse and an old boot"

Others may thought of her as the crazy IT woman back then in FASHION. But for me, she's a woman with class, with style, with broad thinking about the industry she's getting into. The interview maybe old, but, it's timeless, one that never goes out of style.

@Izzybaggins 2 жыл бұрын

Im not a fan of Kim but I am a fan of Diana and I honestly think she would’ve love it and I still don’t don’t understand the big deal of Kim wearing it, I mean both beautiful women started their careers after the scandal of naked pictures/video and both managed to take the bad and turn it into a successful career, for both the media and public took interest on if they had plastic surgery or not, their love lives, both married several times with athletes and showbiz men, both accused of cheating and sleeping with married men anyway…. who cares really more important than a dress is that both defeated society trying to shame them for being sexual and made it into success and that’s why I think Diana would’ve love it, she empowered other women.

@smax333 2 жыл бұрын

If anything crucifying kim for wearing Marilyn's dress is the complete opposite to what Marilyn stood for. Do I think it was appropriate, not really but beating it to the ground like shes committed a war crime is tired.

She's always fascinating to listen to, or read her aphorisms and bon mots, her memories. Many embroidered, but who cares? She loved making a story better, more romantic. A real life Auntie Mame. Her voice and accent here reminds me of Lauren Bacall. Who DV loved in her pre-fame modelling days. She knew everyone.

Although during Vreelands yrs at Vogue, and especially towards the end of her reign, Vogue was out of step with the times, no longer could the magazine support, a 15 day shot to some exotic location, with 100 trunks of clothes, etc, .

Diana Vreeland characterized the nature of her downfall at Vogue perfectly herself, "And designers do design for those who can afford it, true?" "Yes!" Grace Mirabella, her successor, would eschew the expense of fashion and embrace the prêt-a-porter and accessible fashions, only to fall out of favor when the high-couture look came back into style, and Anna Wintour took over. Nevertheless, no one remembers Grace Mirabella, while Diana Vreeland, and now Anna Wintour have graced themselves into the annals of pop culture. However, Grace Mirabella wasn't a total bore, in fact she had a good business and fashion sense. After she died, I read her memoir and and grew to admire her.

One of the perils of being up-to-date in fashion is that one almost always looks ridiculous in retrospect. Both Vreeland and the interviewer look bizarre, poorly made-up, and unattractive to modern eyes---the strange, heavy make-up, chaotic hairstyle, and extremely unattractive outfit. The average office worker of the day who dressed conservatively would almost always look better than her if you saw them in photographs now. To her credit, she refused to criticise Queen Elizabeth. The Queen, who was viewed as dowdy at the time, she looks far more presentable and chic than this woman in any photo from the 1970s.
