In a candid conversation with CNBC’s Tania Bryer at her home in Venice, Italy, Diane von Furstenberg, the renowned fashion designer, reflected on the 15th anniversary of the DVF Awards and the enduring popularity of her iconic wrap dress, which marked its 50th anniversary in 2024.
Von Furstenberg, a pioneering entrepreneur, established her label in the early 1970s, a time when the fashion industry was largely dominated by men. Today, DVF is a multimillion-dollar company available in over 70 countries, with the wrap dress remaining one of its best-selling items.
