Oh Oscar!

Tragic morning! This is what I call a tragic morning for the fashion industry.

The iconic gown master passed away... Oscar de la Renta passed away!

The man that dressed first ladies, Hollywood stars and designed the most breathtaking wedding gowns left us today at the age of 82, leaving behind him a 50 years legacy of fashion!

Jacqueline Kennedy, Nancy Reagan, Laura Bush, Michelle Obama, Jenna Bush, Hilary Clinton, Sarah Jessica Parker and many more were dressed by De La Renta, without forgetting the most awaited wedding gown of Amal Alamuddin Clooney less than a month ago.

Each dress he designed was anticipated and awaited. And though he was known to be an American designer, Oscar always had a European touch running through his designs, making gowns look even more special!

Earlier this month Oscar has appointed Peter Copping the artistic director of Nina Ricci as a creative director for his company.

Oscar, the red carpets, wedding aisles and White House dinners will be missing you.  The fashionistas, designers and regulars will be missing you. We all will be missing you! 

Peter we are counting on you to keep the legacy going on!

“What is Oscar de la Renta?’ And you could say, ‘It’s a pretty dress.'”
