Tributes pour in for the legendary designer.
The fashion world is mourning the loss of the great Oscar de la Renta this morning, after he died at his home in Connecticut on Monday, because of complications from cancer. At 82 years old, Oscar had been battling the disease for a decade, with his wife Annette de la Renta confirming his passing.
Despite his long-term illness, it was only this month that the designer enlisted the first ever creative director for the Oscar de la Renta label, with Peter Copping left to carry on his legacy.
Having dressed many a celebrity, Twitter tributes to Oscar have come in their masses this morning, with Taylor Swift writing, “My all-time favorite designer has passed away. Oscar, it was an honor to wear your creations and to know you. In loving memory.”
