Oscar de la Renta Spring 2013 is a Delight.


Oscar de la Renta is still in the league and this spring and summer season shows it. The show opened with Karlie Kloss in a shiny red latex top paired with a slim pencil skirt and a blazer. This gave a taste of what the collection will be about. Chic with an edge that demands the attention by everyone to notice the woman. This showed again on a slick emerald green tank and pencil skirt under a hot pink silk faille jackert embroidered with black tassels. The models hair were swept in messy beehives that were streaked with pink, yellow, and blue. De la Renta was having fun and showed that he can still design beautiful collections and grand ones at that.


Each piece is an example of the amazing studio that produces them. Daywear was solid, clean and fresh. A simple white suit that was beautifully constructed and had slim cut pants was elegant and a belted sleeveless safari style top with wide tailored pants all in white gave class. There were also daysuits in doily lace and fuchsia astrakhan.


After dark, a pair of party dresses in feather embroidered tulle were especially memorable. A black ball gown that was slightly short in the front with embroidered beading on the bodice was grand and a striped number made a mark of a fun, simple touch to evening dressing. Shocking pink and green faired well in the line up of the evening section of the collection.


This collection made an impression that an influential French editor was heard saying "J'adore Oscar". Oscar de la Renta is a class act and is one of the remaining true masters of fashion and always comes up with marvelous clothes that are of class and modern with a couture touch. What a delight.

Oscar de la Renta is Youth Chic for Fall/Winter 2012-2013.

Oscar de la Renta had a very youthful momentum in his entire collection. In this case it means that no matter how youthful these garments look this fall, any woman of any age can find something to wear from his entire collection. The line up of course included the sophistication, elegance and class that Oscar is known for and really does not disappoint.


The girly effects such as fishnets, jewel encrusted booties, pouf or tiered tulle, pastel furs and helmet hair tied with a jewel-encrusted bow were the details that made some looks playful. Bauble motifs threaded throughout that featured huge prints and embroideries of pendant brooches on jackets, skirts and sheathes.


The wonderful group of glamorous restraint, soon morphed into a group of pretty pastels, tweeds and party frocks fit princesses of any ages. Silhouettes were from fitted to straight sophistication. There were some pouf skirts as well as some pencil skirts.
Daywear included some fabulous suits that were signature Oscar de la Renta that came in many different tweeds. pants with fur hems were matched with fur vests and short sleeved shirts showing that the Oscar girl can be playful and fun.


Evening was precious with an array of sophisticated looks. A gown covered with graphic paillettes was divine. And how can an Oscar de la Renta collection not be without any ballgowns? It would be blasphemous! This time the ballgowns were truly gorgeous with tulle skirts that tastefully and gradually got bigger and bigger.
This collection was certainly without any limits and it was done well. Oscar truly has a great eye and taste for fashion and at his age it is wonderfully endless! I Love you Oscar!!!

Oscar de la Renta gives Spring/Summer 2012 Exuberance.


When I saw the first look turn the corner and then walk down the runway I knew what to expect for this collection by Oscar de la Renta. This was a collection of beauty and exuberance that really demnstrated the exquisite vision that de la Renta had for Spring/Summer 2012. There was something not only for a certain kind of woman but for every type of woman. This is for the proper ladies, debutantes, the sex pot, even for the kind of woman who has a bohemian streak. The embellishments were rich and lavish: airy organza appliques, to sassy allover tassels and major sequins encrustations. Crochet and lace was throughout and the beautiful evening gowns were to salivate over.


I especially loved this pastel pink feathered column dress that effortlessly floated down the runway. It was fantastic!

Oscar still has the elegant touch and it is never to be underestimated!
