De la Renta

Stanley Tucci in the role of Nigel in the 2006 film "The Devil Wears Prada", refers to Oscar de la Renta, as one of the greatest artists of the century

Born July 22, 1932, in Dominican Republic, the island that gave him the love for the exotic, so colorful and luminous.

At the age of 18, he went to Spain, where, beside of another great artist, Cristobal Balenciaga, he discovered his passion for fashion.

After the wife of the American ambassador in Spain saw some of his designs, commissioned him to design a dress for her daughter. The daughter and the dress appeared on the cover of Life magazine.

From Madrid to Paris and then to New York

The day after his arrival in the City of Light, he was offered a job, at Lanvin, where he refined his style. Two years later, he moved to New York - where he became a designer for Elizabeth Arden.

He made his name a brand branched out into fragrance and then in a home line, then on the furniture, never put aside his creations prêt-à-porter and Haute Couture, worn by both political personalities, as well as Hollywood stars and even our first lady Angelica Rivera

 

Here it is a gallery of his most memorable creations:

#GallianoIsBack (English version)

Maison Martin Margiela welcomes a new era, at least that reads your Twitter account. (@Margiela)

British designer John Galliano, the former Christian Dior artistic director who was fired from that post in 2011 for making anti-Semitic remarks, who will follow up the adventure that began Martin Margiela himself, of whom little is known. (never shown an image of himself, has never come to thank his guests at the end of his fashion shows and does not respond to interviews in a personal way, but by fax or any other electronic device)

In a statement of "urgent", Renzo Rosso, half businessman, half rockstar, who is also the president of OTB (Only The Brave, which includes brands such as Diesel, Viktor & Rolf, Marni and of course, Maison Martin Margiela) Said that Juan Carlos Antonio Galliano Guillén, better known as John Galliano, will be the one that will conceive all the collections of Haute Couture and prêt-à-porter. His debut will be in the week of Haute Couture Paris in early 2015.

“You're only as good as your last collection, which is an enormous pressure” – John Galliano

#GallianoIsBack

Maison Martin Margiela da la bienvenida a una nueva era, al menos así se lee en su cuenta de Twitter. (@Margiela)

Se trata del diseñador británico John Galliano, despedido en febrero de 2011 de Dior, quien dará seguimiento a la aventura que iniciara el mismísimo Martin Margiela, de quien poco se sabe. (nunca se ha mostrado una imagen suya, jamás ha salido a agradecer a sus invitados al final de sus desfiles y no responde a entrevistas de un modo personal, sino por fax o cualquier otro medio electrónico)

En un comunicado de carácter “urgente”, Renzo Rosso, mitad hombre de negocios y mitad rockstar, quien es también el director de OTB (Only The Brave, que engloba marcas como: Diesel, Viktor & Rolf, Marni y claro está, Maison Martin Margiela) Dijo que Juan Carlos Antonio Galliano Guillén, más conocido como John Galliano, concebirá todas las colecciones de Haute Couture y de prêt-à-porter y su debut será en la Semana de la Alta Costura de París, a principios de 2015.

“La investigación creativa es el secreto o el truco que da realce a todo diseño original” 

– John Galliano
