As most people know, Oscar De La Renta has died.

(Except my boyfriend, because I don't know most of the footballers he mentions so we're equal!)

So I just thought I'd share a couple of images from a few of his collections.

"Oscar de la Renta was a world-renowned fashion designer, revered for his couture-like-ready-to-wear collections that have provided many a show stopping moment on the red carpet. After launching his eponymous line in 1965, the designer developed a successful bridal, fragrance and homeward collections that established his reputation as one of the most successful and respected designers in the industry, with his exquisite designs having been worn by everyone from Jacqueline Kennedy, to modern starlets such as Gisele Bundchen, Anne Hathaway and Liv Tyler"

All his collections are so different and have explored so many avenues of fashion, but always keeping a high standard of manufacture, amazing shapes and delicate patterns.

I especially like the first collection I've featured, the right florals and mix of French Toile de Joue influence is beautiful and a pattern that I really really love!
