Are you girls ready for a high dose of refinement, femininity and elegance? If you are, just have a nosey at the newest Oscar de la Renta spring 2013 collection!
Oh how we love Oscar! What do you mean by 'Oscar who?' No, not
the famous statue, but de la Renta. Oscar de la Renta, the
renowned fashion designer that never ceases to surprise the
audience with his out-of-this-world creations. And the spring 2013
collection makes no exception whatsoever. De la Renta seems to be
an unfailing source of statement-making goodies bringing season
after season an array of wearable pieces with a special couture
touch.
As usual, Oscar de la Renta's designs ooze maximum refinement,
elegance and femininity. For spring 2013, the de la Renta woman is
not afraid to dare and take her sartorial approach to a new level
trying eye-catching brights, notice-me-now combinations, sexy cuts
and leather. There are pencil skirts, tops, shorts, suits,
jumpsuits, and an array of gorgeous dresses. The color palette
includes red, black, beige, strong shades of yellow, fuchsia, and
turquoise, but also softer hues of pink and blue. One can also see
stripes, embroideries, metallics, feathers, and flowers
appliques.
Oscar de la Renta always knows how to take the idea of luxury
and glamour and turn it into beautiful, wearable clothes. However,
he admits that things changed throughout time and that women have
evolved a lot. "Today, we deal with a very different woman," he
said in an interview with Harrods Magazine.
"I remember the old times, when we had customers who would buy from
the house, season in, season out. Today there is little loyalty
among consumers, because what is important for a woman today is the
projection of her own individuality. Because I love women, I have
always felt that my role as a designer is to keep my eyes open, and
to understand women. It’s unbelievable what has happened in the
world in the last 40 years, how women have evolved. My goal is to
fulfil a woman’s dreams by making her look and feel her best. It’s
great for us designers, because we have never dealt with a consumer
who is so much in control of her own destiny as a woman is
today."
The 80-year-old designer also told the magazine that, "People often
ask me, 'how long are you going to be working like this?' I have
been doing this for many years. I look at work in a very different
way. To me, every single day, there is a learning process. And the
day when I say that I know it all, that there is no longer a
learning process, I will stop."
