The Diana Vreeland DVD



Diana Vreeland. Now there was a fashion editor. As Lauren Hutton says in The Eye Has To Travel documentary, 'She was upside-down original.' Her vivid imagination changed the face of fashion and brought a little extra pizzazz into our lives. So, good news people, the D.V. DVD is out today. It's a brilliant film, I can't wait to watch it all over again (here's my full review)  - and I'm wearing stripes and painted nails in honour of the grande dame.


I've gone easy on the rouge, though....




PS I think that should be our fashion mantra from now on, 'We all need a little extra pizzazz.'

I especially need some extra pizzazz at this time of the year ;-) Will have to watch it - when I have time to myself, with a glass of wine and no interruption... xo

I LOVE Diana. I was hesitent to read the book because I had read others ant thought it would just be a repeat of what I already knew about her. NOOOOO!! This book "The Eye Has To Travel" was a feast for my eyes and one of the best most well written books I have ever read on fashion. Her grand daugher-in-law did her proud!!! Last weekend I went to see this film. It was one of the BEST FILMS I have ever seen!!! If you love fashion or creativity of any kind this is a must see!!!

I'm VERY eager to see this for myself. And this is the first time I've ever seen this "stripe" portrait of her.

Terri - the stripe photo's fantastic, isn't it? I found it via Pinterest.
