Diane von F\u00fcrstenberg shocked fans after revealing she has a dramatic black eye that ‘does not look good’.<\/p>\n

The fashion<\/a> designer, 78, looked slightly dazed as she showed off a deep purple bruise around her eye with the lid swollen and drooping.<\/p>\n

‘Upon arrival in LA, I fell on the pavement and hit my forehead!’ she said to her 463,000 followers on Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While the shiner certainly looked painful, Diane appeared to be unfazed as she added: ‘Does not look good for sure but grateful nothing more serious!!!’<\/p>\n

Despite being in bed, the fashion icon who is best known for pioneering the wrap dress, was still in a lacy top with a necklace which said ‘in charge’.<\/p>\n

Diane added: ‘I am owning it, applying lots of arnica gel and happy it was not worse!! Owning it is the secret of survival!’<\/p>\n

The fashion powerhouse rose to prominence in the late 60s<\/a> after marrying Prince Egon von F\u00fcrstenberg, who she split from in 1972.<\/p>\n

She began designing clothes as she wanted to have a career outside of her high-profile marriage and was listed for New York Fashion Week after meeting Vogue’s Diana Vreeland.<\/p>\n

In 1974, Diane introduced a collection of wrap dresses, selling one million dresses in two years and solidifying herself as a legend.<\/p>\n

She was the subject of a Disney Plus documentary, Woman in Charge, last year, highlighting her extensive career and personal life.<\/p>\n

The film included interviews with some of Diane’s famous colleagues and friends, including Marc Jacobs<\/a>, Oprah Winfrey<\/a>, and Hillary Clinton<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A source told Page Six <\/a>the accident occurred outside her daughter’s home after falling on the street.<\/p>\n

They reassured that the Belgium designer is ‘fine’ but ‘is just very bruised’, adding: ‘She is someone who posts daily and owning a fall is part of life.’<\/p>\n

In response to her Instagram post, famous friends and concerned fans sent their well wishes.<\/p>\n

Former British Vogue editor Edward Enninful wrote: ”Feel better Diane! So sorry \u2764\ufe0f.’<\/p>\n

‘You poor thing!’ the singer Jewel added. ‘I had a dog once jump up as I was going down to pet it \u2014 broke my orbital bone and gave me the worst black eye! But all you can do is own it! \u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f\u200d\ud83e\ude79’<\/p>\n

‘Oh Diane!!!! I’m so glad not worse [sic]. Love you!!!!’ said Tracee Ellis Ross, star of Black-ish.<\/p>\n
