Alexandra von Fürstenberg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alexandra von Fürstenberg (née Alexandra Natasha Miller) (born October 3, 1972, New York City), is the youngest daughter of duty-free billionaire Robert W. Miller. She is the sister of Pia Getty and Marie-Chantal, Crown Princess of Greece, the troika known socially as The Miller Sisters.

Alexandra was raised in Hong Kong, Paris and New York. She studied fashion and art history at the Parsons School of Design and Brown University.

In 1995, she married Alexandre von Fürstenberg, the son of fashion designer Diane von Fürstenberg and Prince Egon von Fürstenberg of Austria. Though she would have become Princess Alexandra of Fürstenberg (de: Alexandra Prinzessin zu Fürstenberg), the marriage of Egon and Diane was seen as unequal, and therefore titles were not transmitted to their agnatic descendants. Alexandre and Alexandra had two children, Talita (b. 1999) and Tassilo (b. 2001). They separated in 2002 and later divorced, amid rumors of Alexandre's infidelity.

Alexandra is the image director for her former mother-in-law's DvF clothing label, and helped revive the company’s famous 1970s wrap dress.
