@DVF in action…<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Facebook. Twitter. Instagram.<\/p>\n

What were once daring homesteads in the Wild West of the Internet landscape, have now become powerhouses of modern communication across our global community. Like a hurricane, the online world of social media continues to drastically affect popular culture and everything in its path. And fashion, is in the eye of the storm.<\/p>\n

But even with the tremendous growth of fast-fashion, E-Commerce, and online blogging, much of the fashion industry is holding back- remaining in an un-easy and un-decided relationship with modern technology. Women\u2019s Wear Daily reports that many luxury brands, including Prada, are heavily favoring a more cautious route with this technology.<\/p>\n

One person who\u2019s not is Diane Von Furstenberg.<\/p>\n

Google Glass pioneer, Instagram junkie, and Tweet-happy former Princess, the 66-year-old icon is on the forefront of everything the fashion world is afraid of. \u00a0No stranger to innovation, Von Furstenberg has pushed boundaries throughout her career– leading the creation of New York City\u2019s beloved High Line, serving as president of the groundbreaking CFDA, and oh yeah, creating the iconic wrap dress, forever changing the working woman\u2019s wardrobe.<\/p>\n

But is the youthful enthusiasm of Diane Von Furstenberg\u2019s personal relationship with social media a true representation of her company\u2019s alignment? Or is it all for show?<\/p>\n

With over 230,000 followers on Instagram, 350,000 likes on Facebook, 600,000 followers on Twitter, and an impressive frequency of \u201cself-postings\u201d (versus postings on behalf of the brand by a member of the DVF social media squad) there is, without question, a strong level of commitment from the designer.<\/p>\n

The New York Times<\/em> recently reported on Von Furstenberg\u2019s active Instagram presence, noting, \u00a0\u201cthe designer routinely scours the site for commentary,\u201d and even for design inspiration.<\/p>\n

Christian Oliver, an Account Executive for Domestic Wholesale at Diane Von Furstenberg corporate, further testifies to the designer\u2019s social media savvy. \u201cDiane herself is often the one directly communicating via these platforms.\u201d \u00a0The company also stands at an exciting technological juncture within the sales department itself. \u201cThe Domestic Wholesale team has started to use an App called Joor that streamlines our order entry process,\u201d Oliver explains. \u201cOnce the App is more fully developed, it could become a major tool for all segments of the wholesale world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Design, Marketing, and <\/i>Sales? It seems Diane Von Furstenberg is truly ahead of the game. And if this gamble is half as successful as the wrap dress, I\u2019m all in.<\/p>\n
