Fernando Garcia and Laura Kim’s Resort 2019 collection for Oscar de la Renta main reference was the Wedgwood book by Rizzoli, turning everything in the lineup to be suitable for wedding related events- from the reception, bridesmaids’ dresses, and even the rehearsal dinner.
Another key inspiration came from when: “We got Meghan Markle’s phone call to help dress her mom for the royal wedding,” Garcia said after Tuesday’s show, referring to the pistachio coat and dress Doria Ragland wore to her daughter’s wedding last weekend.
The collection was full of soft dresses, and the most evident were the tweed suit jackets matched with casual shorts and gowns in tulle, guipure and organza. There were plenty of pastel-hued stretch wool dresses, minimal oversized suits, printed cotton dresses.
Welcoming a youthful and fresh collection, the duo designers once again honored the founder’s legacy with millennial updates.
