Legendary fashion maven Diana Vreeland at the urging of her editor Jackie authored a classic volume in the 1980s on the quality of "allure" in fashion and in life. Throughout Allure, Vreeland lends her famous knack for turning a phrase to an astonishing array of fashion, celebrity, and fine art photographs.
