The world bids Viva Forever to another Fashion Genius...
And my personal tribute to him...
Oscar De La Renta
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...
The Stylish Corporate Woman
The Cocktail Chick
The Hollywood Style Queen
Mr. De La Renta was not only known for his work on evening dresses or day wear collections but he was very well known for his splendid Bridal Collections...
I remember I only got to know about his bridal designs when I watched Sex & The City as you can see below when Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) was going to marry Mr Big (Chris North) (1st round) :
This picture above was from part of the show as well, when Sarah Jessica Parker in her character Carrie Bradshaw was modelling his designs for a magazine shoot
