| NEW YORK, June 5, 2006—Oscar de la Renta changed things up for resort. Rather than show in his Seventh 
 Avenue showroom, the accustomed venue for his cruise line, he chose the dazzling Renzo Piano-redesigned
 
 Morgan Library as a backdrop. And among the reliable assemblage of editors, buyers, and Park Avenue types,
 
 there was a new face: Olivier Theyskens, in town to receive the Council of Fashion Designers of America's
 
 International Award. But if some things were different, the clothes were pure Oscar, from the first trapeze
 
 -back ivory bouclé shift to the last bubble-skirted ball gown in a Marie Antoinette by way of Nancy
 
 Lancaster floral print. In between, he showed mod polka dots, raffia crochet, eyelet, and a white lace-and-
 
 point-d'esprit djellaba that was memorable not only for its beauty but also because it was one of the few
 
 pieces—aside from the show's numerous straw hats and sunglasses—that explicitly evoked thoughts of
 
 lounging poolside at Punta Cana, or some other posh Caribbean retreat.
 
 These clothes, after all, are in stores longer than those of any other season—in some cases from November
 
 until May—and that means they have to cover every manner of occasion. For day, Oscar's ladies can choose
 
 between a ruffle-neck taffeta top with wide-leg twill pants (lunch at The Modern), a silk shirtdress in the
 
 designer's favorite ikat print (after-work power drinks), or a smart navy-and-white houndstooth cotton suit
 
 (Board of Directors meeting). Come evening, it's flirty cocktail numbers in silk faille, gala-worthy columns
 
 with matching rib-skimming boleros, and—rather fittingly, given the show's location—strapless gowns to do
 
 a robber baroness proud.
