From the very beginning, Diane Firsten was influenced by her mother, Ina, who had impeccable style and taste. Always dressed beautifully from head to toe and always impressed the importance of wearing beautifully tailored clothing, shoes and bags. It was instilled into Diane to look and feel your best. In Diane’s mid twenties she turned the lifestyle of fashion into a thriving career.
AT THE HEART OF STYLE
Starting her journey at the renowned Fifth Avenue Club at Saks Fifth Avenue Cincinnati, Diane made an impact with her clients through the personal shopping Department, quickly becoming the go-to stylist for the top tier clientele of Cincinnati. After leaving Saks Fifth Avenue, Diane went beyond the parameters of Cincinnati to dress her clients accompanying them to New York and Miami on private shopping trips.
THE FIRST DIANE FIRSTEN BOUTIQUE
Diane swiftly transitioned her career from stylist to entrepreneur, bringing trunk shows by top designers to her Cincinnati apartment. She then opened her first boutique on Madison Road in Cincinnati. Her loyal clients followed her, not only for her keen eye but for the inspiring newness she found in fashion on her frequent buying trips to Paris, London, Milan and New York. Curated collections from designers such as Brunello Cucinelli, Manolo Blahnik, Loro Piana, Carolina Herrera, Oscar De La Renta, and her own Diane Firsten bespoke collection filled the boutique. The Diane Firsten boutique became more than a store, it was a special place that ladies came to feel beautifully styled. It was like being a member of an exclusive private club.
DEFINING MODERN LUXURY
In 2001 Diane, inspired by the lifestyle of Palm Beach, opened her second boutique on Via Mizner / Worth Avenue. With a warm welcome, Diane quickly made a name for herself through her exquisite taste that could be labeled as “the english countryside meets Hotel du cap” The Nantucket boutique followed, opening in 2010 on historic Main Street.
Through many leaps of faith and dedication, Diane Firsten has become a name that truly embodies the chicest collections found around the globe. Understated elegance that transitions through the decades is what one could expect to find when entering the modern world of luxury at Diane Firsten.
