Diane von Furstenberg bestowed the awards flanked by Hillary Rodham Clinton as Venice Film Festival got underway.
“I had such a good time and it was exciting to see the film festival back in full force after COVID[-19], and I thought the turnout, not just the people associated with the movies, but the press and the fans, everything was so exciting,” Rodham Clinton told WWD on the sidelines of the awards.
“It is the really incredible story of a young Afghan woman who served as the mayor of her town, and we started shooting it before the Taliban came back but they were always after her and then of course we have the evacuation and even some footage after that,” Clinton explained. “Netflix bought it, it’s an incredible story.” Also on Sept.
Taliban restrictions on women’s education, employment and freedom in Afghanistan, following the U.S. withdrawal from the country, took center stage during the ceremony, as did the Russian invasion of Ukraine and climate change. Several members of the extended von Furstenberg family were in attendance, in addition to the designer’s husband “My aunt is an extraordinary woman, she has always been there in difficult moments,” said Lapo Elkann of von Furstenberg. “She is probably one of the most important women in my life, she is like a second mom. I have a respect and a love for her that is unique.” He was flanked by his wife and rally champ Joana Lemos, with whom he now lives in Portugal.
