This, the first full-length biography of Diana Vreeland, portrays a fashion icon, a fearless innovator who as editor, curator and wit reinvented the way we think about style - inspiring designers, models, photographers and artists. Diana joined Harpers in 1936: during her time there and later as the editor-in-chief of Vogue, she launched Twiggys career, advised Jackie Kennedy, and enjoyed the full swing of sixties London. Later, as Special Consultant to the Costume Institute at MoMA her first show smashed all the record books.
