Strong and Graceful Woman: Diane Von Furstenberg

I am truly inspired by fashion designer Ms. Diane Von Furstenberg not only because of her beautiful fashion designs, but mostly because of the philosophy she lives by. In an American Express commercial that aired last year, I discovered her philosophy. Upon viewing the beautiful commercial, I was captivated and truly connected to what she said. Today, I want to share it with you. Please click on the link to view the commercial. If you want to know what the beautiful song is in the background, Opus 28 by Dustin O'Halloran.

In the commercial, Diane says the following:

"I didn't really know what I wanted to do, but I knew the woman I wanted to become. Fashion was absolutely an accident in my life. As a result of that, I was becoming independent and I was becoming more and more the woman I wanted to be. If I have any role in what I do in fashion, it is to make women feel more confident. To be confident makes you beautiful, makes you happy, makes you fulfilled."

I really do not think I should elaborate anymore on what she says. The video and what she says explains it all. I am truly inspired by Diane Von Furstenberg.
