To mark the milestone, she took to Instagram, posting: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CYI2_flL1jH\/\" target=\"_blank\">So.

When it comes to DVF\u2019s trailblazing contributions to the fashion industry, none are as influential or perennially chic as her iconic wrap dress.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not familiar with this fashion fairytale, here&#8217;s a stroll through von Furstenberg&#8217;s past.\u00a0 After marrying the German Prince Egon von Furstenberg in 1969, the Belgian-born designer took her place as European royalty. Her love of fashion saw her first work as a photographer assistant, before landing an apprenticeship with textile manufacturer Angelo Ferretti. It was while mastering fashion design in Ferretti&#8217;s Italian factory, that DVF created the first few prototypes of what would ultimately become her signature wrap dress.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_45743\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-45743\" style=\"width: 684px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-45743 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/12\/GettyImages-499297657-e1640983223189.jpg?w=684\" alt=\"\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-45743\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">CANADA &#8211; NOVEMBER 04: Model Iman in one of Diane Von Furstenberg&#8217;s dresses.
