I downloaded the Kindle edition of The Woman I Wanted To Be by Diane von Furstenberg the day it came out. I just had read this fashion designer’s previous autobiography Diane: A Signature Life a couple of months ago and was already looking forward to more.
Of course, I love her iconic wrap dress, but I am more interested in how she personally cultivated the woman she is: glamorous, confident, independent, inspirational. The book is divided in half, between her personal and professional life. And what a life! Her passionate life is so incredibly full. This honest account is an engaging read.
Overall, her story is truly an inspiring one. In fact, I need to take note and become more fearless.
