Style is something each of us already has, all we need to do is find it.
Interpretation
Style is inherent to everyone; it just needs to be discovered.
The quote by Diane Von Furstenberg emphasizes that everyone possesses a unique style that reflects their personality and individuality. Rather than creating something new, the challenge lies in uncovering and embracing what is already within us, highlighting the importance of self-discovery in expressing our true selves.
In practice
In a discussion about personal branding at a workshop.
There's design, and there's art. Good design is total harmony. There's no better designer than nature - if you look at a branch or a leaf, it's perfect. It's all function. Art is different. It's about emotion. It's about suffering and beauty - but mostly suffering!
The little black dress is the true friend...she travels with you...is patient and constant...you go to her when you don't know where else to go and she is ALWAYS reliable and timeless.
One of the most important things about fashion is to dress as well as you can, look as attractive as you can, and at the same time be comfortable with yourself. Be easy about your clothes; forget about them.
All women are strong. My mother survived Auschwitz, and fear wasn't an option when we were growing up. If we were afraid of the dark, we were put into the closet until we weren't.
You're always with yourself, so you might as well enjoy the company.
A challenging economy is always good for design. It unites necessity and functionality. You are forced to be creative with poor materials.
Writers write these male stereotypes, and it makes it ten times more interesting if a woman says the lines.
I think that's why often people in creative fields can feel so alone is because there's a constant third eye, that constant watcher.
I was always trying - I never wanted to let my fans down; I always wanted them to see me in my art form.
A work of art may be understood as a conductor from the artist's mind to the viewer's. But it may never reach the viewer, or it may never leave the artist's mind.
Fashion is fragile and fleeting. But it is also an indicator for the cultural and social appetites for a nation.
The adoption of the required attitude of mind towards ideas that seem to emerge "of their own free will" and the abandonment of the critical function that is normally in operation against them seem to be hard of achievement for some people. The "involuntary thoughts" are liable to release a most violent resistance, which seeks to prevent their emergence. If we may trust that great poet and philosopher Friedrich Schiller, however, poetic creation must demand an exactly similar attitude.
