Craftsmanship
Oscar de la Renta Pre-Spring 2025 handbags are injected with the prints and tones of the season, adding dimensionality and texture. Orchids figure as cut-out and layered leather flower blooms, and abstract watercolor arrives as if it is seeping across the canvas mimicking its own facture in Garcia’s artist studio.
Whimsy wins for accessories: teacup and playing card charms decorate necklaces and asymmetric earrings, and the season’s hero orchid arrives gilded in larger-than-life scale across jewelry and belting. Shells are magnified for necklaces and earrings, at times dusted with micro-pearls—an homage to the sea and the inherent refinement of nature.
