A designer of Dominican origin learned the fashion business from the grand names as Lanvin and Balenciaga, only to become one of the most influential designers of the 20thcentury himself. In addition to that, he contributed to fashion overall as president of the Council of fashion designers of America. Since 1965 Oscar de la Renta and his namesake brand dominated American fashion, dressing presidents, and socialites alike. Known for his usage of bright colors he was the first Dominican ever to design for a French couture house. With this experience in hand, he manages to expertly mix European couture and American sportswear. His designs are inspired and easy to wear, without lacking elegance and sophistication.

The necklace is reminding us strongly of Anna Wintour, who as well often chose big statement crystal necklaces to bling up her midi dresses. It is a very special piece showcasing stones ascending in size and color intensity. Starting off with clear crystals transforming to a pastel pink climaxing in the biggest stones with a dark purple hue. It can be fastened in different lengths and therefore worn as a choker style for a more current look as well as a necklace that beautifully drapes over the wearer’s collarbones.
