July 19 through October 5
at the George W. Bush Presidential Center
A major retrospective of American fashion designer Oscar de la Renta, exploring his significant career from its origins to his most recent runway and red-carpet masterpieces.
Iconic Style for First Ladies
The exhibition offers visitors an opportunity to examine, through
Oscar de la Renta’s designs, the unique role of the First Lady as our country’s
official hostess to world leaders and diplomats and as a trendsetter in style,
fashion, and entertaining. Daywear and evening dresses worn by Laura Bush,
Hillary Clinton, and Nancy Reagan are on display, as well as garments worn by
members of First Families, including Jenna Bush's wedding dress.
Expressive Spanish Influence
The art, culture, and dress of Spain influenced Mr. de la
Renta's style – illustrated in the exhibit through his use of lace, color, and
embellishment reminiscent of traditional Matador costumes.
The Glamour of the Red Carpet
From such A-list events as the Oscars, the Country Music
Awards, and the Met Gala, the exhibition features stunning evening gowns
designed by Oscar de la Renta for America's most acclaimed celebrities.
