Diana Vreeland, D.V.

- First published in 1984, just 5 years before her death, "D.V." is the autobiography of the inimitable Diana Vreeland, Vogue editor in chief, mastermind of the Met's Costume Institute, confidante of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.

- We love this summary from the book's original jacket: "Her book has all the dash of a woman who has never allowed herself moods or melancholy; who has looked for (and found) what is attractive, elegant, and bright; who is in love with life (not with herself); who adored her husband all the years of their marriage; who from age 18 to 30 was a lady of leisure in society that tangoed through the nights ("I had it all!") and in the decades since then has, with no regrets, flung herself nonstop into storms of brilliant work..."

- The front and back endpapers feature color images of her life, front cover includes her portrait by painter William Acton.

- This early edition printing is in very good vintage condition. The cover is protected in a plastic jacket. Please see our detailed photos.
