R.I.P TO A FASHION ICON OSCAR DE LA RENTA

"Fashion is about dressing according to what's fashionable. Style is more about being yourself"- Oscar De La Renta
Today i woke up to start my day and read from one of the online blogs that one honorable fashion icon has fallen, yet another great man of impeccably taste who's work has inspired the likes of me and thousands of individuals around the world died at the age of 82 after a long battle with cancer which was confirmed by a family member to some media sources. Born into the high society of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic on July 22, 1932, de la Renta became known for swathing women in silk-taffeta and chiffon gowns that were praised as pieces of art. One of his well known quotes: “There is no sound more feminine than a woman in a taffeta dress.” He dressed the like of Sarah Jessica Parker, Oprah ,Cameron Diaz,Kerry Washington and the likes. His presence will be greatly felt in the fashion industry..RIP #OscarDeLaRenta #Fashionicon #famous #style #quotes

  1. He was a very talented man. And I didn't know he had cancer until recently; it's really sad. Also I love your dress and how you add an even bolder statement with your necklace.
