"Dive into the three decades Diana Vreeland spent at Harper's Bazaar and marvel at her matchless expertise and distinct view within the fashion industry."
-THE SOCIETY DIARIES
"If you've ever wanted to peer into the mindset of a creative visionary at the helm of a major publication, this book offers just that. Featuring every issue of Harpers Bazaar under her keen eye, this lovely book gives us a closer look at Vreeland's influence over the magazine and a visual history of her celebrated editorial eye."
-LIFE IN A VENTI CUP BLOG
"What raises [Diana Vreeland: Modern Woman] above the rest is that it replicates the actual pages laid out by Vreeland, as seen in Harper’s each month from the ‘30s to the ‘60s. They elevate the book to the level of visual primer: a ‘how to’ for stylists, photographers, models and, above all, art directors. . . As this book shows, Vreeland knew more about the value of white space and the pithy epithet than any other editor of her time."
-THE BUSINESS OF FASHION
"This is a must have, must read, must see book that can only delight those who revel in fashion. Alexander Vreeland reminds us all that his grandmother was indeed the high priestess of fashion. Thank you for this great souvenir and recollection of just how astoundingly and fashionably brilliant she was!"
