Oscar de La Renta: The Romantic of Design


"The great thing about fashion about fashion is that it always looks forward."

Oscar de La Renta
Being one of my top 5 favorite designers in the world, Oscar de La Renta's designs showcase that you can dress as royalty at any time you like with sophistication. He appealed to every young adult women, like myself, to elderly women as well. He was a true inspiration for a women's style.

"Fashion is about dressing according to what's fashionable. Style is more about being yourself."

Valentino is sleek and classic, Versace is vibrant and sexy, Oscar de La Renta is romantic and fairytale like.

I've always dreamed of my wedding to be Oscar de La Renta. His romantic designs flourished in bridal apparel.

His designs have been worn by influential women such as Jackie Kennedy and Oprah Winfrey to today's young Hollywood Taylor Swift and Lea Michelle.

From the Grammy's to the Academy Awards to the Met Gala, at least one or two women of Hollywood would have one of his gowns on. They immediately on the Best Dress list. On the red carpet, Oscar de La Renta is always a top choice.

He designs romantic elegance to the red carpet. From the runway to red carpet, Oscar's gowns make anyone feel as if they are a princess.

"Every season I am inspired by women."

He knew the right colors and prints that were flattering for women in every season. He also knew that having a design that is form fitting for a woman's body is always best. He made different shapes with dresses that were still flattering for women.

"I am not interested in shock tactics. I just want to make beautiful clothes."

22 July 1932 – 20 October 2014
"The Sultan of Suave" will be greatly missed and designs will be in history forever. The world of fashion lost a true legend and icon.
