This week, the world, not only the design world, but the entire world, lost a true master. You know, one of those rare individuals with that one-a-kind creative genius, that even if you have never personally met them, you still know that you will be able to say you were able to see them work within your lifetime. One of those individuals that did not just discover a job or a career, but a craft and then dedicated himself to it heart and soul. Took the time to refine and hone it until it is always executed with such precision and skill that the only result is not mere success, but greatness.
Oscar de la Renta was a living legend, and now, a fashion deity. There was nothing he could not do. From sportswear, to cocktail dresses, to evening wear, to black tie, Oscar's dedication to perfection was legendary and will continue to live on. This week we pay tribute to this Child Of Paradise with a stream of our favorite looks from the one and only, Oscar De La Renta.
