"    Diane von Furstenberg and Linda Fargo; Photo: Jenny Kawa/BFAnyc.com   Last night at Bergdorf Goodman in New York, Diane von Furstenberg celebrated her book collaboration with British writer Camilla Morton, Diane von Furstenberg and the Tale of the Empress&amp;#039;s New Clothes. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a very empowering story,&amp;quot; Morton told ELLE.com, &amp;quot;Because the empress realizes it&amp;#039;s about who you are, not just about what you wear.&amp;quot; The updated take on the classic fairy tale features illustrations created under von Furstenberg&amp;#039;s direction.  When asked which fairy tale was her favorite as a child, von Furstenberg replied, &amp;quot;Maybe Cinderella. I&amp;#039;m not sure I like fairy tales, actually, because they used to make me cry. Le Petit Poucet was so sad.&amp;quot;   Morton has previously partnered with Manolo Blahnik and Christian Lacroix on two other books intertwining fashion and fairy tales. &amp;quot;I think it&amp;#039;s a natural progression from when you&amp;#039;re a little girl and you read Cinderella or watch Disney&amp;#039;s movies, and you see how the fairy-tale princess is transformed,&amp;quot; she explained. &amp;quot;Fashion is all about fantasy and transformation.&amp;quot;  Buy your copy of Diane von Furstenberg and the Tale of the Empress&amp;#039;s New Clothes ($5.53\u2013$14.95) here.
