Diane von Furstenberg presented a blockbuster show on Sunday—which featured everything from a modern version of her signature wrap dress to printed minis and gold lamé. Von Furstenberg described the motivation behind her collection: "I've always wanted to live a man's life in a woman's body." Off the runway, the designer recently established the DVF Awards, which, on March 13th, will honor four women who have worked for social justice across the globe.
