Young Talent Wins Opportunity After Competing on Fashion Reality Show
At 25, fashion stylist Brittany Hampton competed on E!’s reality show “House of DVF,” and wowed iconic designer Diane Von Furstenberg from their very first meeting.
Even as Hampton battled nine other talents on television challenges, Von Furstenberg felt she had the right mix of skills and vision to represent DVF globally.
“The first time I saw Brittany, it was at the DVF Awards at the United Nations. She was beautiful in a long red dress,” remembers Von Furstenberg. After getting to know Hampton and her accomplished, entrepreneurial family, the designer’s instinct was confirmed. “I knew when I met the other women in the family that I had made the right decision.”
Hampton’s one-year contract as the first-ever DVF Global Brand Ambassador cemented her place as one of fashion’s rising stars.
Young Star Brings Fresh, Fearless Style to Iconic Brand
As she stepped into the high-profile ambassador role, Hampton brought not just industry knowledge but a vibrant fashion sense uniquely her own.
Whether styling edgy cut-out dresses on the red carpet or vacationing in color-popping printed rompers, the then 25-year-old’s style blended sophisticated glamour with playful confidence. Her embrace of vibrant colors respected DVF’s signature prints while adding a young, contemporary twist.
As Hampton traveled internationally to represent DVF at glittering events, her effortless charm and chic aesthetic made her a powerful spokesperson for the brand. She had the fashion credentials to highlight iconic pieces while drawing a new generation of fans.
Confident Ambassador Poised to Inspire Young Women
With her contract placing her in DVF’s inner circle for the year, all eyes were on Hampton as she grew into the ambassador position. But the skilled stylist radiated both passion and aptitude for inspiring other young talents like herself.
On her first official work day, Hampton encapsulated her bold approach, writing: “Let’s swag it out! Running around in @dvf Fall 2014 collection!”
As Diane Von Furstenberg’s trailblazing first Global Brand Ambassador, this bombshell made her mark on fashion’s landscape.
