When I grow up, I want to wear Oscar.

I can’t imagine there are many girls in this world who haven’t thought to themselves at one point that is an incredible dress only to discover it was designed by Oscar de la Renta gown. For me there have been many.

The fact that I can probably never afford to own such a fabulous frock, doesn’t take away from my appreciation of the beauty of them. Fitted bodice, full skirt, feminine, ladylike, spectacular, stunning, glorious fabrics, bold stripes, whimsy, sexy, gorgeous. All of those things and so many more. The stuff of dreams.

The world lost an amazing talent today. Oscar was always someone I would have had at my table. You know, the table for 12 where you invite people living or passed to join you. Obviously he would have styled me in a jaw-dropping gown for the occasion.

Rest in peace Mr de la Renta. The angels will certainly be beautifully clothed now!
