How to be Wonder Woman… Diane von Furstenberg knows a thing or two that might get you there


Does Diane von Furstenberg have superpowers? I believe so because like every superhero, she has faced adversity, lost and won a few battles and like a phoenix was reborn with a superhero name: DVF!
Whether it is about style, men or business, she appears to have won on all front. Is it because she identifies with Wonder Woman and has taken the superhero as a mentor… I don’t know but whatever her secret, the result is there and beyond.
And since she is all about giving back and has a great sense of humor – that is my assumption but knowing here roots are Belgian like mine, I can pretty much confirm that one- she has written a comic book intitled “Be the Wonder Woman You Can Be, Featuring the Adventures of Diva, Viva & Fifa,”about three women who discover their “inner Wonder Woman”.
And when I mean giving back, it is truly all the way since all proceeds of her book go to Vital Voices, a movement that identifies, trains, and empowers emerging women leaders and social entrepreneurs around the globe.
I have her book and the matching tote, the only thing I am missing is an interview with my superhero… but rest assured that’s on my 2010 wish list!
