Oscar de la Renta CEO Bans Meghan from Wearing New Designs, Sales Drop

Oscar de la Renta's co-creative directors, Fernando Garcia and Laura Kim, have made a bold decision to ban Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, from wearing their new designs.

This move comes after the Duchess faced backlash for her fashion choices, resulting in a drop in sales for the renowned fashion brand.

During the recent New York Fashion Week, Oscar de la Renta unveiled their Fall 23 collection, which captivated fashion enthusiasts with its nature-inspired themes and elegant ensembles.

The color palette featured a harmonious blend of sage, sienna, safflower, aqua, rouge, teal, and grape.

However, it is the soft lavender hues that truly stole the spotlight.

While the collection incorporated elements from previous successful lines, it seems that any outfit worn by will never be reintroduced to the market.

According to sources, the Duchess's controversial appearances in these outfits have significantly diminished their value, rendering them unsellable inventory.

One notable instance was during Meghan and 's visit to Bristol, England, where she wore a printed chiffon dress beneath her William Vintage coat.

Designed by Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, the dress showcased an enchanted forest motif, with various animals adorning its fabric.

Priced at $1,813, the dress boasted bishop sleeves and a button neckline.

Meghan complemented the olive tones by accessorizing with a suede Ralph Lauren clutch and Pippa Small diamond studs.

While many may have animal print dresses in their wardrobes, Meghan's choice stood out due to its wilder design.

However, sources claim that courtiers were left disheartened upon seeing her in the dress, as they felt she did not carry it well.

It is believed that Meghan lacks the confidence required to wear such bold outfits, leading to their perceived failure.

Wearing a dress like this demands a certain level of badassery, which she seems to lack.

Merely reaching for prestigious labels is not enough to pull off such looks.

Furthermore, Meghan's decision to wear the dress while pregnant resulted in controversy.

The important waistline of the outfit was compromised, altering its overall shape and appearance.

The dress, part of the Oscar de la Renta Fall Collection, drew inspiration from medieval Elizabethan tapestries and textiles, featuring whimsical animals and floral patterns.

Ideally, it should have been paired with a matching coat and worn with delicate shoes, as it was designed as a chiffon dress.

However, Meghan opted for suede boots, which did not complement the ensemble as intended.

It is worth noting that Meghan has struggled in the past to pair shoes with her outfits, despite owning some impressive footwear.

To truly carry an outfit like this, one must exude confidence and embrace its eccentricity.

As GoFugYourself.com pointed out, a Cate Blanchett-like stance is required.

Cate Blanchett effortlessly wears clothes that mere mortals could never pull off, yet she makes them work.

Oscar de la Renta's decision to ban Meghan from wearing their new designs reflects the negative impact her fashion choices have had on the brand.

With sales dropping, it remains to be seen how this controversy will affect both Meghan's personal style and the future of the renowned fashion house.
