International designer Diane Von Furstenberg (DVF) will be visiting India this week. Priya Sachdev & Charu Sachdev, who introduced the brand Diane Von Furstenberg to India's fashionistas through their store 'Kitsch' -located at Kalaghoda-Mumbai and DLF Emporio Mall- New Delhi, are ardently looking forward to her first visit to India.
DVF is a respected name in the fashion industry and is popularly known for creating the wrap dress. The dress came to symbolize power and independence for an entire generation of women.
A philanthropist, a mentor, Diane Von Furstenberg has won accolades for her contribution to the fashion industry worldwide.
Diane von Furstenberg first entered the fashion world in 1972 with a suitcase full of jersey dresses. Two years later, she created the wrap dress, which came to symbolize power and independence for an entire generation of women.
By 1976, she had sold over a million of the dresses and was featured on the cover of Newsweek. In 1997, after a hiatus from fashion, Diane reemerged on the New York fashion scene with the relaunch of the iconic dress that had started it all and reestablished her company as the global luxury lifestyle brand that it is today. DVF is now sold in over 70 countries worldwide, and has 45 freestanding shops. A store which feels like an elegant theatrical journey, reminds you of a stroll down Fauborg Saint Honore which is home to the most recognized and iconic fashion houses. The lotus in the logo represents "K" of Kitsch" reminding us gently that we are actually in our own home turf - India.
