Farewell Mr. Oscar De La Renta

The world bids Viva Forever to another Fashion Genius...
And my personal tribute to him...

Though he wasn't particularly known for his designs for curvy women, but he did do some splendid jobs on celebrities like Beyonce, I personally love his designs because they were just simply breathtaking...every single unique design. Below are few favourite numbers...
