“It’s virtually impossible not to get
swept up in Oscar de la Renta’s
confident vision of the luxurious life.
The designer played to all of his
strengths for spring, showing more of
the pretty dresses, chic suits, and slim
coats that have made him a
touchstone of relaxed, modern
elegance.”

What do you think of Oscar de la Renta being considered
the first American to be made creative director of a
French couture house, when he was born in the

age 31?
