#Diane Simone Michelle Halfin

[girlactionfigure]

Diane von Fürstenberg (née Diane Simone Michelle Halfin) is a Belgian-American fashion designer best known for her iconic wrap dress design — a timeless staple in women’s fashion. Born on December 31, 1946 in Brussels, Diane was raised by Jewish parents who had just survived the Holocaust. Her father Leon was born in Moldova and escaped the Nazis in Switzerland. Her mother Lily was born in Greece and joined the resistance in Belgium, where she was eventually arrested. She survived 13 months in the Auschwitz and Ravensbrück concentration camps, and weighed a mere 49 lbs at the time of liberation. Against all odds, Lily gave birth just 18 months after the war. Her little girl was a miracle and would one day become a household name. “I used to feel great admiration watching my mother get dressed to go out…she looked at herself in the mirror with a smile of confidence.” -DVF Contributor: @jggoltz

Diane Von Furstenberg!

She was born Diane Simone Michelle Halfin in 1946 to a Romanian father and a Jewish mother of Greek descent. Born and raised in Brussels, Belgium, she transferred to the University of Geneva in Switzerland at the age of 18 after enrolling at Madrid University. That's where she met her first husband Prince Egon zu Fürstenberg. They got married in 1969, moved to New York, and had two kids together—Prince Alexandre von Furstenberg, a boy, and Princess Tatiana von Furstenberg, a daughter—but they separated amicably in 1972 and she decided to keep his name.

In 1970, she started creating clothing. Despite the fact that she had no financial need for a job because of her marriage, she acknowledged that she yearned for freedom. When she saw Julie Nixon Eisenhower wearing one of her wrap tops with one of her skirts on television in 1972, she was inspired to merge the two pieces into one classic wrap dress. In the 1970s, the wrap dress became associated with the empowerment of women. Ever since the wrap dress has been associated with Diane Von Furstenberg.

DVF AF: Diane Von Furstenberg

Diane von Furstenberg, formerly Diane Simone Michelle Halfin,  was born December 31, 1946, in Brussels, Belgium. She became a designer and businesswoman whose lasting contribution to fashion design was the wrap dress.

Von Furstenberg attended the University of Geneva to study economics. There, s he met the Austrian-Italian Prince Egon zu Fürstenberg, and they were married in 1969. When the pair relocated to New York City, Von Furstenberg began her modeling career. She developed a passion for the fashion industry's design sector and began by creating simple garments like T-shirts, shirt dresses, and the two items that subsequently gave rise to the wrap dress—a wrap top and a matching skirt.

In 1974, Diane von Furstenberg presented her wrap dress. A long-sleeved silk jersey dress with a fitted top and a skirt that wrapped around the body and tied at the waist. Its design, which was both feminine and practical, was a response to the emancipated atmosphere of American society in the 1970s, a time when more women entered the workforce and started wearing pants, which had been integrated and recognized as a part of women's clothing since the 1960s.

Millions of wrap dresses were sold by its second year on the market, and as a result of this retail craze, von Furstenberg was featured on the front cover of Newsweek magazine in March 1976 as well as The Wall Street Journal. She evolved, becoming a symbol of inspiration for other women, both inside and outside the fashion industry, as a strong, modern female designer.

Von Furstenberg admittedly took a hit during the Covid-19 Pandemic, leaving her with only one operational storefront in Lower Manhattan. The brand sells to Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Revolve, Mytheresa, Net-a-porter and Zalando, along with selling plus-size dresses to Dia & Co. They also sell Rent the Runway, where DVF has an 88 percent use rate.

Diane von Fürstenberg is one of the world’s most successful fashion designers. Once married to Austro-Italian Prince Egon von Furstenberg, she designed her iconic wrap dress for the working woman.

Synopsis

Diane von Fürstenberg was born Diane Simone Michelle Halfin on December 31, 1946, in Brussels, Belgium. One of the world’s most successful fashion designers, von Fürstenberg impressed the fashion world when she introduced her now-iconic “wrap dress” for the working woman in 1972. Once married to Austro-Italian Prince Egon von Fürstenberg, her designs have mostly appealed to middle-class women.

Early Life

Diane von Fürstenberg was born Diane Simone Michelle Halfin on December 31, 1946, in Brussels, Belgium. Her well-to-do Jewish parents, Leon and Liliane Nahmias Halfin provided their daughter with a comfortable childhood. Her mother, a Nazi concentration camp survivor, imbued her with confidence and a sense of self-worth. Von Fürstenberg attended finishing schools in Switzerland, Spain, and England, and in 1965 entered the University of Madrid. In 1966, she transferred to the University of Geneva, where she met Prince Eduard Egon von Furstenberg, heir to the Fiat automobile fortune.

The Wrap Dress

The couple quickly fell in love and married. Now Princess von Fürstenberg, she apprenticed with Italian textile manufacturer Angelo Ferretti. The von Fürstenbergs moved to New York City in late 1969, where Diane attempted to interest garment manufacturers in her sample designs. Working during the early months of design out of the dining room of her Park Avenue, she found inspiration in the fashion lines of Bill Blass and Kenny Lane and by Diana Vreeland.

In April 1970 von Fürstenberg showed her first collection at the Gotham Hotel in New York City. Because she had little experience in producing clothes on a large scale, von Furstenberg at first worked with major women’s clothing manufacturers, but in April 1972 she established her own manufacturing business. With the help of friend and entrepreneur Richard Conrad, and with a $30,000 loan from her father, Diane von Fürstenberg opened a Seventh Avenue showroom. Although her designs were variations on items in her initial collection, she produced a new, very popular sweater dress named “Angela,” after the black activist Angela Davis. Next came von Fürstenberg’s enormously popular wrap dress.

By the mid 1970s, von Fürstenberg’s “wrap dress” had revolutionized American women’s apparel. It was versatile—working as both a comfortable business dress and an elegant evening gown. Furstenberg became a powerful fashion icon in the 70s by acknowledging the needs of a growing number of career-minded women. By 1976, she had sold 5 million wrap dresses, landed covers of Newsweek and The Wall Street Journal, and created the fragrance Tatiana, named after her daughter.

  Personal Life and Publishing

Despite such huge career success, von Fürstenberg’s personal life was crumbling. She and Prince Egon separated in 1975 and divorced in 1983. Fleeing bankruptcy, she moved to Europe and founded Salvy, a French-language publishing house. In the early 1990s, she moved into the home-shopping QVC world with her line Silk Assets. “It was tacky, but it gave me confidence.” Finding moderate success, she moved back to the United States in 1990 and settled on a farm in Connecticut.

For the next several years, von Fürstenberg published a series of books. First was a trio of coffee table books that exposed the interior lives of the rich and famous. Her 1991 book Beds displayed the bedrooms of celebrities and royalty. The Bath, released in 1993, offered a brief history of bathing and its many splendid rooms. The Table, released in 1996, highlighted the delights of entertaining and dining. In 1998, she exposed her own life in her autobiography DIANE: A Signature Life, a frank and compelling look at her marriage and her fashion career.

Years later, in the fall of 2014, the designer released another memoir, the empowerment-themed The Woman I Wanted to Be. At the same, the reality TV show House of DVF was launched on E!, following a group of young women competing to become von Fürstenberg’s brand ambassador.

Diane von Fürstenberg è una stilista e imprenditrice belga con cittadinanza statunitense.

Diane Simone Michelle Halfin, nata in Belgio il 31 dicembre 1946, da padre moldavo e madre greca. Fürstenberg ha frequentato Università di Madrid prima del suo trasferimento alla Università di Ginevra per studiare economia. Si è poi trasferita a Parigi e ha lavorato come assistente fotografo di moda. Lascia Parigi per l’Italia per lavorare come apprendista presso il produttore tessile Angelo Ferretti nella sua fabbrica, dove ha imparato a conoscere taglio, colore e tessuto. E da qui che Diane inizia a  progettare e realizzare i suoi primi abiti in jersey di seta.

Dopo essersi sposata il 16 luglio 1969 all’età di 24 anni con il principe Egon von Fürstenberg (nonostante le opposizioni degli altri membri della famiglia Fürstenberg, che obiettavano sul fatto che Diane fosse ebrea) da cui divorzierà tre anni dopo, Diane von Fürstenberg nel 1970 investì 30.000 dollari disegnando una linea di abbigliamento femminile, che diventa immediatamente popolare per le caratteristiche fantasie stampate sugli abiti. A testimonianza della sua importanza nel mondo della moda, alcune sue collezioni sono state esposte al Costume Institute del Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Avevo 26 anni quando ho creato il wrap dress, non avevo idea che sarebbe entrato nella storia

Era il 1970, l’anno dopo il matrimonio con Egon che avvenne anche grazie al volere di Agnelli che era preoccupato dalla vita bohèmienne che il nipote conduceva a New York. Giovanissima e altrettanto bella, Diane investe 30mila dollari e crea una linea di abbigliamento femminile tutta di abiti stampati.
