Diane von Furstenberg Spring 09 Fashion Show
I have only discovered Diane’s work this year, however, I instantly fell in love. How can you not, really? Her designs are so eclectic, inspiring and exciting!
Diane Von Furstenberg has first arrived in the fashion world in 1972 with her iconic wrap dress. She became internationally acclaimed for her modern, yet affordable clothing that was perfect for career minded women that still wanted to look feminine and beautiful.
Trends for Spring/Summer 2009 based on DVF fashion show:
• Dresses, dresses and more dresses! Collection consisted of mostly feminine silhouette dresses. It’s the easiest way to create an outfit with a single item of clothing. Lucky females!
• Bold colors. She used a lot of bright oranges, purple, green and etc. Sometimes, more than one in a single outfit.
• Many garments were trimmed in crystals or bids
• Influenced by 20’s and 60’s
• The goal is to create a hippie chic look with a tiny splash of glam
• Fringe is still a pretty hot trend
• Skinny belts go over everything
• Flowery patterns
• Main 2009 spring accessory- Headpieces- the models wore headpieces in silk flowers and feathers.
• Lots of gold was used in accessories, as well as garments: gold skirt, blazer, shoes and etc.
her collections are always amzaing.I think there is something there for everywoman.pair a tough leather jacket and flat boots if your not so girly girl and if you are throw those pumps on! She is a genius when it comes to dresses.

Marian! You are such a beautiful person! Thank you so much for you motivational words. You probably don’t even realize how much it means for me to hear them. I was a bit down, so they came at a perfect timing!
Love you! muah!
omg, I can’t believe you just found out about her, she’s great, the things that woman can do with prints is like no other.
I know! She’s a genius! Well…I’ve only moved to Canada about six years ago, and we don’t even have DVF stores here, which is pretty sad
Yes, I’m discovering new designers like EVERYDAY! It’s really difficult to pick favorites anymore. 
LOL
Hi there-Yes DVF produces some really lovely pieces, her vintage stuff is gorgeous too!
DVF is one of my fav. designers. very romantic yet so easy to wear.
Hey Sharone Rose!- You are absolutely right. Her style and clothing is timeless.
Hi savvymod- Thanks for stopping by darling!
WOW! I really love her desings! I would wear almost all the items featured in this show, which is rare for me, since I’m so picky…But not her stuff…It’s so romantic, girly, beautiful and flowy!! And she herself seems like a beautiful person inside and out. She seems so humble and a tab bit shy of her own talent and fame…it’s really nice to see in contrast to some other snobby designers out there… Thanks for sharing! I enjoyed it thouroughly! =)
