Vintage Oscar de la Renta Navy Satin Gold Embellished Skirt Suit F/W 1992

Oscar de la Renta is one of the most iconic names in fashion. His luxurious and versatile designs evolved over decades inspiring awe and showcasing the beauty of the women who wore them. Known for his superb evening and bridal gowns, de la Renta is a fashion staple for a classic, sophisticated look.

Done in a sumptuous navy blue satin, this fall 1992 skirt suit is a fine example of de la Renta’s artistry. A black pantsuit version of this custom color set was seen on Christy Turlington on that season’s runway, and is one of the most memorable pieces from the collection.

The wrap jacket begins with a plunging V neckline and long sleeves that reach several inches above the wrists. It is fitted at the waist and falls in an asymmetric peplum hem at the upper thigh. The right panel of the front of the jacket features beautiful gold floral Lesage embroidery that is embellished with gold sequins, beads, and a passementerie trim that elevates this set to a work of art.

The skirt falls to a maxi length at the ankles in a straight hem, and has one thigh-high side slit that adds a welcome risque note to this classic ensemble. A regal addition to the discerning fashion lover’s wardrobe, this impeccably tailored skirt suit is the perfect choice for a wedding, gala, or special occasion, and can easily be styled with statement heels and accessories.
