Ten years ago, Oscar De La Renta, the go-to designer for women seeking fabulous party dresses, was starting to think about throwing a major party of his own: the 50th anniversary of his fashion house. Before the planning could really start, however, De La Renta died.

So it was only fitting that on Dec 17, his dreams were finally realised with a blowout fashion show and celebration in Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic, where De La Renta was born, in honour of the brand’s 60th birthday.
