因缺陷而完美:時尚女王Diana Vreeland的美麗箴言

縱使她的容貌並非世俗所謂的「主流美」,然而其「化缺點為優點」的自信態度,卻是值得當今女性銘記於心的準則,她是我們心目中不朽的時尚女王──Diana Vreeland。

濃郁黑髮、鷹勾鼻、下垂眼,Diana Vreeland可以說是自小便與美貌無緣,然而,她並不以此而自怨自艾,反而選擇勇於面對自己的缺陷,同時轉化成個人最獨特的亮點;不僅將黑髮後梳,更為兩頰染上明顯紅暈,藉以突顯不出眾的臉部輪廓,同時為雙唇與指甲染上最愛的鮮紅,完美襯托白皙膚色,盡顯令人過目不忘的獨特與優雅。

如果你也和Diana Vreeland一樣,並非生來完美,那麼,你更必須學習她將「缺陷化作美麗」的精神,讓身上的缺點成為你最獨一無二的特色!

"The idea of beauty was changing," she said. "If you had a bump on your nose, it made no difference so long as you had a marvelous body & good carriage. You held your head high, & you were a beauty… You knew how to water-ski, & how to take a jet plane fast in the morning, arrive anywhere, & be anyone when you got off."

「假如有牙縫,就讓牙縫成為最美的特點;身材高的話,就穿高跟鞋盡量更高。脖子長要現出來,別駝背;鼻子長,就抬頭讓它成為你的特色。 盡情自曝其短,讓缺陷成為身上最美的部分!」

"The only real elegance is in the mind; if you've got that, the rest really comes from it."

「真正的優雅來自於內心世界;如果你內心存有優雅,那麼其餘的都會自然而然的流露出來。」

"Red is the great clarifier - bright

and revealing. I can't imagine becoming bored with red - it would be like

becoming bored with the person you love."

「我不能想像自己會對紅色厭倦,就像你不會對自己的真愛厭倦一樣。」

"When I arrived in America, I had these very dark red nails which some people objected to, but then some people object to absolutely everything."

「當我剛到美國時,我手上擦著非常深色調的紅色指甲油,那時候有些人無法接受。後來,我發現有些人根本什麼也無法接受!」

"All my life I've pursued the perfect red. I can never get painters to mix it for me. It's exactly as if I'd said, 'I want rococo with a spot of Gothic in it and a bit of Buddhist temple'—they have no idea what I'm talking about. About the best red is to copy the color of a child's cap in any Renaissance portrait."

「我的一生中都在追尋那個『完美的紅。』從來沒有誰能夠為我調配出我心目中的那款紅色。當我告訴他們「我要帶有一點哥德式以及佛教廟宇般的洛可可紅色」時,沒有人知道我在說什麼。對我來說,最接近完美的紅色就是文藝復興時期畫像中孩童的帽子的那種紅色。」

"There's no such thing as a slack

French face. Haven't you ever noticed that? I've given this a lot of thought

and I think it's because the French have to exercise their jaws and the inside

of their mouths so much just to get the words out. The vowels demand so

much."

「世界上沒有臉部鬆弛的法國人,你有注意到嗎?我經常思考這個問題,而我想這是因為法文發音需要大量的使用下顎以及嘴巴內側,而發出母音的機率又是如此的高。」

"'Wash your blond child's hair in

dead champagne, as they do in France."
