Diane Pernet – the philosophy
Thank you again Andreea Tănăsescu, for giving me that opportunity! You are a great friend to have. And thank you for the photos, which are absolutely wonderful!
I listened to Diane as she talked about her experience here, in Romania, in front of a couples of young designers and fashion lovers at the Center for visual introspection in Bucharest. She told stories about all the things that caught her eye here, in Romania and then she answered questions from the audience, since everyone there was eager to get a glimpse of her perspective on fashion and life in general.
“Talent and persistence will shine!”
Diane Pernet has a very good understanding of the possibilities created by the online environment. She believes that there is no excuse for young designers not to promote their work, when creating a website and publicizing your work throughout social media is no longer expensive. Her speech focused on the need to create a strong identity, as a designer, that involves more than just your work. Vision is the element that sets you apart and vision is based upon a strong perspective on whatever you work on and a clear set of goals to achieve.
You need to have a combination of talent and personality (tenacity+chemistry), which are the main elements for success in any business you might start. And Diane Pernet is a great example for that. She is inspiring and full of incredible stories and I wish there were more like her.
