About Diane FerjaneDiane Ferjane was born to a Lebanese family
and raised between France & Lebanon. She feels fortunate to have been exposed
to both East & West simultaneously as she believes this helped to sculpt
her view on the world whilst influencing her style. Intrigued by the fashion
world she decided to study fashion in Beirut at the renowned fashion school,
ESMOD. After graduating Diane found herself participating in several fashion
shows, theatre and on movie sets as a costume designer. Over the years her work
gained the attention of many including Lebanese designer Rabih Keyrouz who
recruited her as his assistant. Although enthused by her career as a designer’s
assistant, Diane always felt the desire to begin her own brand which she did in
2005.
