Judging the Judges: Diane Von Furstenberg

Monday, February 12, 2007 by
With Fashion Week wrapped, we thought it would be fun to put on our bitch dresses and turn the tables on Project Runway's various guest judges who showed collections. We've already done Michael Kors. Next up, the fabulous Diane Von Furstenberg:










Killer boots, girl!

More pictures of DVF's Fall 2007 collection here and here.

DVF is one of my idols. I have several of her wrap dresses and even when I am PMSing they make me feel thin. I also think she is gorgeous.
LOVE HER!!

Fantastic.

That's my idea of what fashion is all about.

I'd chose anything by Kors over DVF. Not because I don't like her clothes. They are interesting from a few different angles; the only problem is that none of them actually look all that flattering on the models. They silhouettes do something weird to their mid-sections and make their heads look tiny. And the colors - again interesting - but they don't seem to produce flattering affects against skin tones, like say Vera Wang's or Cynthia Crowley's. But DVF definitely has a perspective.

I must own those yellow shoes! Sure, I have nothing to wear them with, but with shoes like that who needs clothes!

The middle dress in the second row is gorgeous.

DVF and Ralph Rucci are possibly the only two PR judges who have a right to open their mouths on PR or any other 'fashion' podium.

oh. my. goodness. i adore that gold and black polka dot number. and those yellow/gold shoes in the center bottom row? i am flat out drooling.

it is a tragedy that self employment means i don't have to/get to dress up for work. sigh. i could wear that gold and black confection.

She's a very long-time client of my firm, we represent her for IP throughout the world - over 30 years, I believe. She's indomitable, enduring, a clever and constantly refreshing designer and a VERY shrewd businesswoman. It's an honor to work for her.

Highly wearable collection. You would actually see real live humans wearing these garments in public, as opposed to some of the arty pieces that the other designers put out that you can tell that only a fashion victim would wear. Or maybe someone going to a Halloween party. DVF and the Dutchess "done good" this season!

That is how it's done, bitches. Should be required viewing for all future Project Runway contestants. And the woman is ageless!

I want those yellow cruel shoes! Damn! Thanks for showing the big girls in action. Keep it up! It's like seeing the major leagues after watching your kids in little league all spring. (Sorry, PR designers, but it's true.)

LOVE Diane von Furstenberg (sic). She has been around for so long because she is talented. Her stuff is great! And she looks amazing herself! I liked her a lot as a judge on PR...I wish they'd replace Kors with her.

Diane has always been one of my favorite designers. She made fashion history with her signature jersey wrap dresses upon her arrival in New York City in 1972. I love her clothes.

Exactly, those are some fabulous shoes, let me tell you. No wonder they had photos of the shoes alone.
