In true De La Renta etiquette, there was no shortage of gowns: Sinuous beading enlivened graceful A-lines and plush plumage elevated shift silhouettes; and carnation red shone the spotlight on the conerstone of this half-century old house — an inimitable sense of pared-back elegance. Unlike Copping who looked to a certain deluxe, ’50s-infused glamour to refresh the brand, the design team’s bold manoeuvre in the opposite direction paid off. Ditching stuffy stilettos for the ease of sandals (all looks) and introducing a polychromatic mash-up of florals and paisley à la the Roman gypsys, the de la Renta lady’s casualwear this time around truly spells summer.
