OSCAR DE LA RENTA
After apprenticing with the likes of Balenciaga in Spain and Antonio Castillo at Lanvin in Paris, the Dominican designer went off on his own in 1965. His penchant for refined, ladylike looks struck a chord with women of means and garnered De la Renta a slew of Coty Awards. He’s since won numerous CFDA awards—including one in 1990 for Lifetime Achievement—and his momentum shows no signs of waning. De la Renta continues to design the collections, and though he’s begun to court a slightly younger, hipper customer, he’s still the tailor of note for women of a certain age.
