    Diane von Furstenberg Unwraps Soft Power

    In the debut episode of Power Play: Soft Power Unpacked, Diane von Furstenberg breaks down the wealth of influence she has built; not through authority, but through self-awareness, kindness, and intention. She shares how her mother’s survival, her iconic wrap dress, and decades of mentoring shaped her belief that real power comes from honesty and knowing oneself. DVF reminds us that in a world obsessed with such visibility, the most radical power move is being entirely—and unapologetically—yourself.
