HOUSE OF BREEZES - OSCAR AND FRANCOISE DE LA RENTA

"the spirit, the living, the upkeep - each a breeze"



Vogue US - January 1974




Oscar and Francoise de la Renta
Dominican Republic


"To us the luxury of having a beach house," says Francoise, "is to be able to walk barefoot into the living room and sit without worrying if your bathing suit is wet.  Everything costs the minimum, everything is replaceable and washable.  The only things here of value are antique Chinese porcelain fish (shown above) that we keep filled with flowers."


"We tried to keep to the colors of the island - no violent reds, blues, yellows."




"We decided a house on the sand, surrounded by blue water, should be cool and dim inside."

THESE MAKE THE DIFFERENCE...


Vogue US - August, 1977


"When you're talking accessories this year, you're talking a whole different language.  Knotted-scarf necklaces.  Yarn and cording.  Lingerie like skin.  Metallics that look as if they came from the earth."
