deYoung Museum

The deYoung Museum always has amazing, elaborate exhibits. I recently saw the Oscar de la Renta exhibit (which ends next week), but I've never been disappointed with any of the shows I've seen there. The parking is really easy, they have a great restaurant, and it's right next to the California Academy of Sciences and the Japanese Tea Garden.

The Oscar de la Renta exhibit featured hundreds of ensembles ranging all the way through his career as a designer. Each room had a different tone and highlighted a different collection of his. There was a Spanish-inspired room, a Mediterranean room, a garden themed room, a room recreating an editorial he did for Vogue, and a room of his Met Gala designs.


Here are a few dresses from the Spanish-inspired room.


This is a gown from his Fall 2012 collection.


These are a few dresses from the garden-inspired room. It was based off of his garden in Connecticut.


This room is modeled after an editorial shoot Oscar had with Vogue.


This is one of the first dresses in the exhibition.

It was overall an amazing collection, and even though the exhibition is ending soon, there are always exciting showcases going on whether you like seeing art, fashion, sculptures, etc.
