Style Hits: Interview With Diana Wang Of Zhours

Diana Wang Zhours

Style blogger Diana Wang is taking the fashion space by storm with her unique style, brilliant photography, and mastery of the ever elusive Instagram grid.

The story goes something like this—while working as an editor at a luxury lifestyle magazine in Los Angeles, Diana casually started documenting her daily outfits. Fast forward two years and she’s worked with brands like Coach and The Outnet. While her photography skills are completely self-taught, Diana actually holds two Master’s Degrees—one in Communications and one in Fashion Merchandising. Let’s just say, when it comes to fashion, Diana means business!

We sat down with Diana, the creator of Zhours to talk about her style essentials, inspiration, morning superfood ritual, and the words she lives by.

My style icon is…

Jil Sander, if I have to pick one. But really, so many people inspire me on a daily basis.

The one piece that always makes me feel powerful…

My wardrobe changes constantly so I don’t have a fixed one. I do feel most comfortable in minimal, edgy, but elegant black pieces.

Best style advice received…

Diana Vreeland once said and I paraphrase: a little bad taste is hearty and healthy. No taste is what I’m against.

“A little bad taste is like a nice splash of paprika. We all need a splash of bad taste—it’s hearty, it’s healthy, it’s physical. I think we could use more of it. No taste is what I’m against.” – Diana Vreeland

My all-time favorite designer is…

I find myself constantly in awe of talented works by either established or aspiring designers so I cannot pin down just one. Some current favorites include Haider Ackermann, Rei Kawakubo, Martin Margiela, and John Galliano.

My favorite places to shop are…

Ssense, Farfetch, Net-A-Porter, and Saks!

I never leave the house without…

The right hairstyle.

My go to jacket lately. Coming to the blog soon.
