A Taste of Paris in the South

Savannah College of Art and Design Museum of Art presents “Oscar De La Renta: His Legendary World Of Style.” This is the first time that Oscars' work has been on display since his passing in October 2014.  The pieces celebrated in this exhibition were designed for dear friends and loyal clients, even Taylor Swifts dress from the Met Gala 2014 is showcased.  Oscar De la Renta's relationship with SCAD stems back 14 years, to when he won the Andre' Leon Talley Lifetime Achievement award during the fashion show in 2001. 

According to SCAD museum of Arts curators; "Oscar took a personal interest in our students. They have learned from him, and SCAD is humbled to commemorate his love for our students with this resplendent exhibition.”
