Diane von Furstenberg: Woman in Charge was the opening night film of the 23rd edition Tribeca Festival. The Tribeca Festival, presented by OKX, brings artists and diverse audiences together to celebrate storytelling in all its forms, including film, TV, music, audio storytelling, games, and immersive. The festival founded by Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal, and Craig Hatkoff in 2001 was intended to revitalize lower Manhattan following the attacks on the World Trade Center. In 2019, James Murdoch's Lupa Systems bought a major stake in the Tribeca Enterprise, bringing together Rosenthal, De Niro and Murdoch to grow the enterprise.
Diane von Furstenberg: Woman in Charge is a documentary on the eve of Furstenberg marking 50 years as fashion icon. Shining through a male dominated industry, in 1974, Diane von Furstenberg introduced the wrap dress. This new dress gave people the ability to feel well dressed and confident regardless of their shape and size.
Never feeling like a victim of sexism in our culture, Diane Von Furstenberg took challenges like raising two children as a single woman, balancing a career and confronting cancer with equal parts passion and purpose. Her mission was to inspire women to pursue and design their lives with this part passion, part purpose mindset. She embraced femininity in a strong and profound way, leading a path for her daughter and the next generation of women to follow.
The documentary film about this woman in charge is set to release on HULU, Tuesday, June 25, 2024.
