"Daphne Guinness represents a continuum with the rich tradition of British and Anglo-Irish women possessed of unique and idiosyncratic flair for fashion and dramatic self-presnetaion. In fact, she is related to a great many of them, from the multi-faceted Mitford sisters, to the madcap triumvirate of Jazz-Age Guinness sisters, Maureen, Oona, and Aileen."
TOM FORD
"Her style is completely unique and often eccentric, but her keen understanding of her looks, her body, and most importantly her character and personality, make everything that she wears feel as though it has been made for her - and, of course, in many instances it has. Daphne...realizes that other things in life are much more important and so she has not fear when it comes to dressing, and this fearlessness and total security with who whe is as a woman creates a dazzling character."

“There are movie stars you see in film or characters in a novel that are an idealized version of what we dream life to be about, and rarely is this great expectation met. But Daphne is the exception: She is the embodiment of the ideal—beautiful, chic, fiercely intelligent and kind.”

“Daffles, will you just pack a suitcase and we'll do a little project?”

“She's as sharp as razor blades, highly intelligent, very cultured, and she knows everything about fashion - from collar to cuffs. She knows what is good - what good is - and she knows exactly what she wants. She wants something that has never been seen before - and that's a tall order.”

VALENTINO
“Daphne amazes me all the time,” says Valentino. “When I think she has reached the best, then she comes up with something better."
"Life is a stage for Daphne. She can steal the show from every other girl in the room, but they don't mind, because she's so sweet that everybody has to love her."
