Snorkeling For Inspiration At DVF’s Post-Show Dinner
February 16, 2009 2:32 pm

One of many fans at Diane von Furstenberg’s post-show dinner Sunday night, Rachel Zoe recalled when the designer first told her that “Nomad” was the theme of her show. “I’m like, Wait, I feel like that’s you,” she said. “Traveling all the time and always looking gorgeous and glamorous.” That night, though, the evening’s hostess was parked on a banquette with husband Barry Diller, lounging elegantly while a busy scene swirled around her. A video of the show played on a big screen, waiters trucked Indochine entrées to and fro, and a crew from MTV’s The City filmed Whitney Port and Olivia Palermo in full fashion week party swing. Casting occasional glances up at the screen, von Furstenberg explained the collection’s idée fixe: “Wherever she goes, she belongs. And the clothes are real. Her clothes are her friends.” She’d been especially inspired by a trip she and her husband took to the Red Sea. “Barry dives and I snorkel,” she said, then added, “I’m a nomad, no matter what.”
