There was a Mod sixties flavor to the black-and-white looks that opened Oscar de la Renta’s rich and eclectic show. Those graphic patchworks of variously scaled two-tone checks later exploded into a bedazzlement of vibrant color and print—and the beautiful appliqués and embroideries with an artisanal, handcrafted flavor that are such a signature of this house.

This was a pragmatic collection for Oscar’s ladies, with an emphasis on coat or cardigan over dress or pant dressing that mixed things up in a fresh and modern way—including a sand-beige sequin tracksuit top that took the sportif evening look to a new level of insouciant luxury. There were elegant sheath dresses and pencil skirts, but the Oscar exuberance was most keenly felt in the swirling full skirts in crushed Fortuny pleat silks, both for dressy day or glamorous evening.

But if hippie luxe is not your thing, there was more than a hint of the silver screen in a brace of molten platinum lamé and satin evening gowns—and of Rita Hayworth’s 1946 Gilda in a sensational strapless dress of liquid black slipper satin.

ODLR always styles his models impeccably! I always enjoy looking at his collections because of that.

While I'm not a huge fan of his work (I feel like he only designs for 40+ y-o American women), I really respect him. He's a master at what he does and his collections are always very consistent.

Oh and Anna Wintour will look great in that http://www.style.com/slideshows/2011/fashionshows/2012PF/ODLRENTA/RUNWAY/00070m.jpg

^ Agree. Not a big fan of him either, but the man surely has an impeccable eye. The dresses are absolutely beautiful.
