Oscar de la Renta Pre-Spring 2025 Runway Show

For the Oscar de la Renta Pre-Spring 2025 Collection, Co-Creative Directors Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia celebrate both the organic, unrestrained existence and inherent refinement of nature—a concept first evoked by Garcia’s own watercolor orchid paintings. Rosehip, lapis and butter yellow enliven the neutral tones which ground the collection, while drop-shoulder silhouettes and relaxed tailoring elevate daywear with liberated sophistication. Orchid flowers manifest in a multitude of techniques. The hero ballet slipper orchid print introduces the group, making way for hand-threaded guipure and orchid-printed gold metal organza—the newest technique adopted by the brand. A snakeskin concept, first presented for daywear on a timeless structured trench coat and signature cotton poplin dress, sheds from day to night with scale-emulating embroidery on a sleek metallic gold fan cocktail dress and crystal fractal gown.
