Pulling the strings of that revolutionary style statement was none other than Diane von Furstenberg. DVF--both the woman and the brand--has always made a point to put women before fashion. It's with that unique philosophy in mind that fellow Belgian Nicolas Lor, Head of Exhibitions and Publications at the Brussels Fashion & Lace Museum, has whipped up this effervescent tribute to the feminist tour de force that forever changed the landscape of women's fashion. A celebration of craft or a retrospective on reform? Call it what you may. Diane Von Furstenberg: Woman Before Fashion is a lesson in fashion history." ~V MAGAZINE

Synopsis
A tribute to the creative vision and feminist philosophy of Diane Von Furstenberg and her eponymous brand, whose iconic wrap dress, created fifty years ago, remains a conduit of personal expression and self-empowerment for women across the globe. In 1972, Diane von Furstenberg created a chic and universally flattering ready-to-wear jersey wrap dress that launched her career and would forever change the landscape of women's fashion. Since then DVF, the woman and the brand, have created designs that empower and promote a woman's sense of self, weaving feminism and activism into the brand's DNA. This visually vibrant tome, which accompanies an exhibition held in von Furstenberg's hometown of Brussels, features nostalgic and contemporary photographs of her journey as a designer. Printed with three different luxe paper stocks withvarying inserts in each chapter, this book features beautiful graphicfabrics flooding each page, alongside numerous images of the wrap dressworn by von Furstenberg and models Jerry Hall, NaomiCampbell, and Cindy Crawford. Original essays discuss the intersection of Von Furstenberg and her designs with feminism, gender politics, and entrepreneurship, with personal anecdotes from collaborators like model Cindy Crawford and entrepreneur Stefani Greenfield. Unique and contemporary, this is a story of the inimitable designer, her brand, and the significant role of a single dress that continues to inspire generations of women.
