There are days like today, when you wake up realizing life was still an ongoing battle on the other side of the Atlantic, when the rest of us were sleeping. To then find out that there is no tomorrow for some of us. During my night sleep my former employer and court dressmaker designer Oscar de la Renta passed away, after a long battle with cancer. I am very honored to have worked for you and I will never forget when you taught me how tie a bow, or showed me how to make a salsa step, or how you would say “just make something beautiful”, or how those constantly curious brown eyes of yours always would smile back at me giving me hope – moments everything just felt impossible. As a tribute of this tough morning a collage will come during the day. Thank you for everything you taught me. RIP Oscar de la Renta.
