Diane Gilman was an American clothing designer and shopping channel television personality on HSN, where she is known as the "Jean Queen". She built a $150 million jeans empire. She began specializing in jeans after noticing the denim industry's void in catering to baby boomer women like herself.
In 2013, Diane authored a book called Good Jeans: 10 Simple Truths about Feeling Great, Staying Sexy, & Aging Agelessly. While her book is largely biographical in nature, she uses her story to encourage and inspire women to go after their dreams and regain a greater sense of self-entitlement that may have been withered by societal expectations and pressures placed upon women past a certain age.
In 2017 she was told she had Stage Three Breast Cancer.
Diane Gilman "Cancer is a great leveler and a great revealer. Cancer doesn’t care if you’re wealthy, cancer doesn’t care if you’re beautiful, cancer doesn’t care if you live in a penthouse on Fifth Avenue. And by the time I came out of my stage three diagnosis, I saw life differently—and I became much more grateful for it.
