Diane von Furstenberg Fall 2011 Runway Review

This season’s Diane von Furstenberg collection, co-designed by Yvan Mispelaere, was titled “American Legends” and from the array of prints the design duo showed, it was clear that they were inspired by a number of them. Millicent Rogers, Diana Vreeland, and Gloria Vanderbilt (the latter of which also inspired this season’s Timo Weiland collection) were all singled out in the designer’s show notes. While the collection featured a few of the expected wrap dresses and classic separates, it had an unexpected amount of edgy, and at times even kooky, prints that were leaps and bounds from the closet staples many might have expected.
