Let me be your Diane von Furstenberg personal shopper!

I am a Personal Shopper specializing in Diane von Furstenberg clothing. Since DvF's design studio is here in NYC, I have the best access to sizes, prints and styles; plus I get actual runway pieces and one-of-a-kind designs that never hit stores! I have been doing this for over 5 years and am very knowlegable about her collections. This blog will be a place where you can see what items I have in stock, which can then be purchased using PayPal or money order. Come in and take a look!

Discounted Wraps from 2005-2006 Collections

These are 2005/2006 items for which only a limited number of pieces can be found at this point in the season. Some items have made it to the sale season, but most are items I purchased back when they were available, and they can not longer be found.

The prices you see here are what you pay, inclusive of my costs, which already factor in NYC sales tax and associated delivery fees to have the items sent to me (delivery fee varies by shop and ranges from $12-$50, depending on how rare or far or special order the item is).

Now, on to the dresses! DvF did an exclusive collection for Bergdorf Goodman/Neiman Marcus which included a Zebra print, a golden Serpent print and a brown-olive Leopard print. Of those, I have only the Serpent print still available:

  • Zebra Justin wrap dress (collared, 3/4-sleeves with straight skirt; Material: silk jersey; $335) -- SOLD OUT!

  • Serpent Beige Jeanne wrap dress (collared, long sleeves with slightly less straight skirt than Julian; Material: silk jersey; $335) -- US6 is the LAST ONE!

  • Serpent Beige Kye wrap dress (uncollared, cap sleeves with straight skirt, under-bust ruching and waist sash; Material: silk jersey; $335) -- SOLD OUT!

At the same time, she released a small batch of wraps for her Resort Collection, which included the stunning Tie Dye prints (Rose or Pool) and the beautiful Coral prints (Pink or Dust). DvF did just the Julian and Kye styles for these four prints. I only have a few pieces remaining in those prints since they were produced in such small numbers:

  • Tie Dye Rose Kye wrap dress (uncollared, cap sleeves with straight skirt, under-bust ruching and solid-color waist sash; Material: silk jersey; $350 -- EXCLUSIVE! -- very very few of these were made and the only reason this is even available is because the person who is was originally purchased is too slim to fit into it!) -- SOLD OUT!

  • Coral Pink Kye wrap dress (uncollared, straight skirt, under-bust ruching and solid-color waist sash; Material: silk jersey; $335) -- US8 is the LAST ONE!

  • Coral Dust Kye wrap dress (uncollared, straight skirt, under-bust ruching and solid-color waist sash; Material: silk jersey; $335) -- US8 is the LAST ONE!

DvF also offered a small collection of new prints in the Jeanne and Julian styles, with one very special style, the Mr. Mao being introduced. Her prints included the Snow Trees, Leopard Flower, Parang Large, Parang Small, and Ice Flower (see Holiday Collection for information on this last print). The only wraps I have left from this collection are:

  • Snow Trees Jeanne wrap dress (collared, long sleeves with slightly less straight skirt than Julian; Material: silk jersey; $335) -- SOLD OUT!

Please keep in mind that DvF sizes run small compared to mainstream labels! If you have never tried on or purchased a DvF before, please contact me to discuss your measurements to that we can figure out what your most likely DvF size is.

Available sizes (marked with X):
(add 4 to US size to convert to approx UK size, i.e. US6 equates to UK10)

If you see something you like, please contact me to discuss sizing and/or to work out details such as shipping preference, total price and payment options (email: FashionForwardStore@hotmail.com).

All items available for pick-up in NYC. Shipping cost is additional and I prefer USPS Priority with Delivery Confirmation for US addresses and Global Express for International addresses. Cash, PayPal, Western Union, USD money orders and USD bank drafts accepted. Credit/debit PayPal payments have an additional 5% surcharge added to cover the fees that PayPal assesses, so if you can pay by non-credit/non-debit card PayPal, you can avoid having to pay that additional 5% surcharge.
