“I think Diana Vreeland recognized the passion and the energy I had. I stayed at Harper's Bazaar for two years, until I met my first husband and moved on to Philadelphia in 1952. But they were incredible years - wonderful, wonderful years. But, anyway, my career sort of took off from there. I was really blessed.” ThinkingPassionEnergyWonderfulHusbandBlessedMovedIncredibles Author:Polly Allen Mellen

I want to feel in the clothes what the designer is really feeling when they're alone with themselves and their fabrics and they're drawings, and what happens when they let the creativity that they have been blessed with come forward. That's why they are who they are.” PeopleFeelingsCreativityBlessedDesignerGuts Author:Polly Allen Mellen
