THE FABULOUS OSCAR de la RENTA

THE FABULOUS OSCAR de la RENTA:





Through the years with Oscar de la Renta.......





“I want to make clothes that people will wear, not styles that will make a big splash on the runway,” the designer said. “Fashion is about dressing according to what’s fashionable. Style is more about being yourself.” “I want to make clothes that people will wear, not styles that will make a big splash on the runway,” the designer said. “Fashion is about dressing according to what’s fashionable. Style is more about being yourself.” ~OSCAR de la RENTA
The fashion world mourns the loss of design legend Oscar de la Renta, who passed away Monday, at the age of 82.  The Dominican-born designer will be remembered as one of the greatest fashion icons in history.  He launced his first ready-to-wear label in 1965, in New York. The legendary designer received many fashion awards in his lifetime, including the Coty American Fashion Critics Award twice, Womenwear Fashion Designer of the Year by the CFDA, and also a CFDA Lifetime Achievement Award, just to name a few.  De la Renta became a favorite designer of the First Ladies of the White House, beginning with Jaqueline Kennedy, and later for Betty Ford, Nancy Reagan, Laura Bush, Barbara Bush, and Hillary Clinton. He was known for for dressing Hollywood celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jessica Alba, Taylor Swift, Eva Longoria, just to name a few. The fashion icon's most recent design was the gorgeous wedding gown for George Clooney's bride, Amal Alamuddin.  The Oscar de la Renta empire is highly successful featuring ready to wear fashion, accessories, bridal wear, childrenswear, and a home line.  Oscar de la Renta will always be remembered by his timeless elegance, sophistication, and romantic glamour, in all of his creations.  The fashion world will certainly miss this incredibly talented designer and his brilliant creations.  He was dearly loved and respected by his fellow designers, celebrities, and people throughout the world.  "Mr. de la Renta was one of America's greatest designers and he was an inspiration to the entire industry. His exceptional vision, outstanding integrity and warm character will be immensely missed by everyone who knew him." — Designer Zac Posen.  Below are some of his signature runway designs throughout the years.  I could have picked so many more, but these are some of the favorites.  Please enjoy the fabulous collections of the legendary Oscar de la Renta.
