“I feel that fashion has somehow lost its way a bit, and it is easy for all of us to be swept up in trends that have lost touch with what women and men want to actually wear,” Ford stated.

“So, I did not want to make clothes that were ironic or clever, but simply clothes that were beautiful.”

Things did not start well at Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia’s Oscar de la Renta debut at FEBRUARY 14, 2017. A curtain failed to open, which prevented half the audience from seeing anything more than intermittent glimpses of the models as they walked by.

Garcia and Kim worked with Mr. de la Renta for many years before his death in 2014. They left the brand when Peter Copping was brought in as creative director and subsequently launched and have had some success with their own label, Monse, in the interim. After Copping’s abrupt exit last July, they were brought back into the company fold and sat front row at the studio-designed Spring show in September.

That evening, in what qualifies as a first for the industry, they sequentially presented Fall collections for Monse and Oscar de la Renta in the same venue. They’ve been charged with bringing some youthful verve to the Oscar brand—with freshening it up. Despite their training and the many months of prep time, this was a disappointing first attempt.

True, it captured the dressed-up sensibility that was the house founder’s calling card, and, yes, it had a more freewheeling sense of pace than the stately Oscar processions of old—those were points in its favor. But it lacked in finesse and a certain degree of taste. The strappy sandals were painfully difficult to walk in. Colors were often garish. And some of the pieces, well, it was a real puzzle what they were doing on an Oscar runway—a multicolored diagonally striped sweater and matching leggings come to mind. Where Oscar’s parade of evening dresses used to surprise and delight in its variety, this failed to do so.

Kim and Garcia have the goodwill of many, so the thing to do now is put this behind them, and book a sunnier space for what will no doubt be a stronger sophomore collection.

Oscar de la Renta, Autumn – Winter 2016-17, Ready to Wear

Maybe the most anticipated fashion show of NYFY is made a reality yesterday. Peter Copping proved to be a worthy succesor of the unforgettable Oscar de la Renta. The Collection was as Classy as always but with a sense of security for a new approach of luxury and decadence of materials and style. Amazing fashionable creations were stood out like the double-face cashmere fit and flare coat, the fairytale gown with fuchsia taffeta drape, or the splendid intarsia mink coat which will be a discussion for a long time… A welcome innovation was also the appeal of a two-for-one showpiece which gave another dimention to the up to now styling…

“THIS collection is really about the evolution of my personal style,” said Victoria Beckham during a preview before her show this morning. Her brand began some fifteen seasons ago with a line up of ten dresses – and it has come a long way since then with an announcement this morning of a new 2,200sq ft store opening in the heart of Hong Kong. She was feeling reflective, wanting to readdress the wardrobe pieces that she has loved over the years. Cue the corset. “I wanted to find a new cool, fresh way of wearing it again, making it more daywear, more modern.”

See the main points here:

That idea manifested by de-boning it, and making it in lighter, softer fabrics. It popped up with alluring slices to reveal the skin, worked into engineered knits and one in a slinky rib trimmed with ivory silk came partnered with a pair of high waisted black trousers, a look, Victoria pointed out, as one of her favourites. “I go to so many red carpet events, and this is exactly what I want to wear on the red carpet right now.” You could already see her in it, along with every other look presented in what was one of Victoria’s most confident, tightly edited collections to date.

She revisited the slip dress too, keeping the bra-shape top but adding volume via bubble skirts, which hovered around midi length. Coats here were also standout, from fringed blanket styles to mannish overcoats in heritage tweed and punctuated with oversized buttons. Just the ticket for bracing today’s -16 temperatures, which feel more like -24 with the wind chill.

“I came out of my hotel this morning and the wind hit me. My trousers stuck to my legs like leggings and even my hair parting felt instantly frozen,” laughed Victoria. “I started out the week in heels,” she shrugs, looking down at her box fresh white trainers, which she teamed with black trousers and a cashmere ivory sweater from a past collection. This may not be the easiest of weather to dress for, but plenty of desirable options here.
