About the brand

Oscar de la Renta was a Dominican couturier and ready-to-wear designer whose creations dominated American fashion for over 50 years.

The designer, a fixture of the New York fashion industry, developed a globally recognized brand via elegance and grace, and was regarded as one of fashion's great gentlemen

Following the problematic designer's exit from Christian Dior, it was De la Renta who enticed John Galliano back into the studio to collaborate with him.

American presidential women

His designs were extremely popular with American presidential women, including Nancy Reagan, Hilary Clinton, and Laura Bush, during the course of his career.

De la Renta was one of the last designers to get instruction from the great.

De la Renta left his home Santo Domingo in 1950, at the age of 18, to study painting at The Academy of San Fernando in Madrid.

He landed an internship with Cristóbal Balenciaga, Spain's best couturier, after drawing for a number of design businesses

De la Renta moved to Paris soon after to work as a couture design assistant at Lanvin.

Within two years, he had relocated to New York and joined the Elizabeth Arden fashion house, on the advice of Diana Vreeland, the then-editor of American Vogue, who informed De la Renta:

"Go to Arden because she will help you gain a better reputation. She will promote you because she isn't a designer. On the other hand, the name Dior will always overshadow you."

It turned out to be sound counsel. In 1965, De la Renta launched his own ready-to-wear line.

De la Renta's use of color, colorful designs, and romantic renderings of Spanish and Caribbean forms made the label an instant popularity.

Bridal Lines

His line's popularity led to the release of a perfume in 1977, as well as further growth into diffusion and bridal lines.

De la Renta developed haute couture designs for Balmain from 1993 to 2002, making him the first Dominican designer to work for a French couture business

De la Renta was president of the Council of Fashion Designers of America from 1973 to 1976, and again from 1986 to 1988, and was well regarded by his peers.
