Separated At Birth: Bruce Oldfield And Oscar de la Renta

0-bruceodlr

One designed dresses for a Secretary of State, the other may or may not be making a dress for the future Queen of England. One thinks Michelle Obama should only wear American designers, the other one just wants Kate Middleton to wear sleeves at her wedding. But when you expose Bruce Oldfield and Oscar de la Renta to the frigid cold of their respective climates, they could be the same guy!

CFDA Not Happy With Michelle Obama’s McQueen Either

0-dvf

If there was ever any doubt that First Lady Michelle Obama is an incredibly important player in the American fashion industry, the fact that the Council of Fashion Designers of America released an official statement about one of her outfits should clear it up.

Should The First Lady Dress For Fashion Or For Country?

Tonight’s State of the Union address will no doubt be an important event for politics, journalism and policy and media minders around the country and across the globe. But what the fashion industry is most concerned about is the message first lady Michelle Obama‘s outfit tonight will send — or whether it will, or even should, send a message at all.

10 Important Things We Learned Last Week: January 16-22

The Golden Globes may have dominated this week, but Oscar de la Renta, Anna Wintour and Justin Bieber also made some headlines. Plus, the model who hit that lady is getting a reality show and the Bill Cunningham documentary looks incredible.

Oscar de la Renta Was Not Happy Michelle Wore McQueen

0-oscarmichelle

While most everyone in the business of commenting on fashion loved (and we mean loved) the red Alexander McQueen gown First Lady Michelle Obama wore to the state dinner for Chinese President Hu Jintao Tuesday, the frock seemed to leave a bad taste in Oscar de la Renta‘s mouth.

Oscar de la Renta Shares His Bridal Line, Go-To Omelet Recipe

The Martha Stewart Show

We feel compelled to warn you: Thursday’s episode of The Martha Stewart Show is going to be a wedding extravaganza the likes of which you have never seen before in your entire life. What makes it different? Six words: Oscar de la Renta’s bridal collection. (Five more real quick: presented by the man himself!)

Hillary Clinton: Would You Ever Ask A Man About His Clothes?

61964532

Noted: If Hillary Clinton says something about sexism, you’d better pay attention. Yesterday at something called a townterview (fun with portmanteaus!) with students and other young people in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, the secretary of state was fielding some pretty boring questions until the moderator decided to get to know Clinton a little better, by way of asking her what’s in her closet. And she did not like that at all.

Is Oscar de la Renta Well Enough To Work?

61695000

Representatives of Oscar de la Renta are being pretty vehement in denying rumors that the designer of the eponymous label is too ill to work and considering finding a replacement. But just because a publicist says one thing doesn’t mean they’re not just trying to cover something else up.

Chelsea Clinton Goes Incognito At Vera Wang’s NY Showroom

0-clintonthumb

We have to admit, this wedding dress guessing game is getting exhausting. First it was all about Vera Wang. Then the New York Times‘ White House correspondent told everyone that Chelsea Clinton’s bridal attire was definitely in the more than capable hands of Oscar de la Renta. And now photos have surfaced of Chelsea arriving at Vera Wang’s New York showroom Tuesday afternoon. What does it all mean? We have a theory.

WATCH: Oscar de la Renta Designs Chelsea’s Dress!

0-chelsea

As one talking head put it, Chelsea Clinton‘s nuptials are as close to a royal wedding as America’s going to get. Her father is a former president of the United States, her mother is the current Secretary of State, and all anyone — including us — can talk about is what her wedding dress is going to look like. And it turns out, contrary to earlier reports, the bride will not be wearing Vera Wang.

The Zoe Report: iDie for Oscar

odlripad

Next in line to my fixation on fashion, beauty and home decor items is a serious love of…gadgets. I rely on my Blackberry—obvi—as a lifeline to my staff, clients and designers and my digital camera for capturing the day-to-day glamour, but my most recent digi-obsession is none other than Apple’s iPad. That’s right, I have one and I LOVE it…which may be due to its impeccably chic case by Oscar de la Renta.

PHOTOS: Resort Collections 2011

From the summery straw hats at Marc Jacobs and Oscar de la Renta to the the touches of 1950s Americana at Oscar de la Renta and Christian Dior, the resort collections were ladylike, fun and evocative of a life by the sea in. Albeit a very, very wealthy one.

Did Max Mara Copy Oscar de la Renta’s Designs?

maxmaravsdelarentathumbnail

When an Oscar de la Renta employee recently walked by Lord & Taylor in New York, an aura of déjà vu spread over them. “Spring 2008,” a voice inside the employee’s head sang. But alas, Lord & Taylor was not recycling old de la Renta designs for their storefront. What the employee saw, and later reported back to the Mr. de la Renta, was a collection of dresses from Max Mara Studio’s spring line. And apparently, spring 2010 is looking a lot like de la Renta’s 2008.

Why Won’t Michelle Obama Wear Oscar De La Renta?

He’s dressed Betty Ford, Hillary Clinton, and Laura Bush — even Oprah donned one of his dresses for the Met Costume Institute Gala earlier this week — but Oscar de la Renta just can’t seen to catch a break with Michelle Obama.

Zac Posen Does His ‘Market Research’ At Target In New Jersey

posen100426_250

It used to be that fashion designers only came out to play twice a year — and we were left to wonder it was they did for the other 50 weeks — but times have definitely changed. With the collections in the rear view mirror, the fashion pack has packed their bags and hit the road to do some honest door-to-door selling. First stop: Jersey!

Natalia Vodianova Wears A Well-Deserved Tiara

Thank you, Carine Roitfeld, for providing us with a much needed dose of fashion porn, this time found in French Vogue’s April 2010 spread titled, “Princesse Natalia.”

Taylor Swift Fierce And Fearless In Elle

0-Elle

This month marks Elle’s Work and Power issue, and many will wonder why the magazine opted for a just-out-of-her-teens superstar. While Taylor Swift is undeniably popular, would it not have made more sense to put someone a little, well, older on the cover? Maybe someone who could, at the very least, legally have a happy-hour cocktail?
