Oscar de la Renta SS13
Striped Ballgown
When Oscar de la Renta's Spring/Summer 2013 collection hit the runway, there were two stand-out looks that immediately seized media attention. Firstly, this flashy pink look seen on Cara Delevingne, and secondly, a bold striped ballgown modeled by Frida Gustavsson, below. Whilst the first look was one not exactly red carpet material, this striped dress made one appearance too many around the world. And it's no wonder, as it truly is a timeless beauty.
Swedish model Frida Gustavsson walked the Oscar de la Renta SS13 runway in this striking white silk gazar gown with navy sateen stripes in a mix of stripes and chevrons.
1. The first celebrity to wear the stunning strapless gown was Chinese star Fan Bing Bing. Her event of choice to showcase the navy and white dress was the Vanity Fair Oscar Party held in February this year. Fan kept her hair up in a classic bun and wore statement drop earrings.
2. Second to scoop up this classically chic dress with voluminous A-line skirt was stylist Olga Stepanenko, at the amFAR gala held in Cannes during May 2013. Olga also styled her hair up and carried a perspex box clutch.
3. Serbian beauty Jelena Ristic donned the monochromatic de la Renta dress to a charity gala held in London in July 2013. She carried a navy satin woven Bottega Veneta clutch and elegantly styled her hair up.
4. Finally, just last week, fashion-loving Anna Dello Russo put on the horizontally striped look for a stint at New York Fashion Week. She added a long round vintagey pendant to her outfit. Who wears a floor-sweeping ballgown in the middle of the day while out and about on the grimy city streets? Anna does, apparently.
As for 'Who Wore It Better?', I have to say Anna is working this look with her incredible confidence and sass. The impeccable tailoring of Oscar de la Renta is fully evident here, as I think the dress suits every girl pictured. Anna, Fan, Jelena or Olga?
Who do you think wore it better?

Swedish model Frida Gustavsson is the best, to my mind. I don't think that this dress looks good on anybody else, especially on Fan Bing Bing. She looks like a cloun in it. Though it's just my humble oppinion.
Thank You for sharing such a nice post, Sam!
Wish you a blessed day ahead!

I have to be a little bit subjective, because Jelena Ristic is from my country, so she's my favorite this time. :)
Dear Sam, if I could afford a Oscar de la Renta I would try to make sure that my dress isn't seen everywhere. Do you agree? I'd love to hear your insight about it :-)
In my opinion Olga wore it better!

Oscar de la renta its a genius the look extravagant.

Olga rocks!!! The dress suits her so much.
amazing dress!
This dress is hard to pull off even if you are blessed with model like limbs. Its looking a little frumpy on the other ladies...Olga is pulling it off nicely.
lovely dress! i'm really digging the monochrome stripes these days!
you're right it looks good on all four women, I really like Jelena's Knot clutch, it looks great with the dress! Hope you had a wonderful weekend Sam! :) xx

I would say Jelena or Olga ! love this dress so much !!
To be honest, I don't think anyone looked good in it as much as Friday did:( I know she is a model, so there's the advantage, but she looks so stunning on the runway!
HI dear!

Amazing dress kisses honey ha e a nice day
Morning Sam! Hope you had a great weekend! Today's feature is interesting, when I saw the gown on the runway I didnt expect it would have had so much success as it has instead. But you are right, is a timeless chic and staple dress which will never be out. The shape is perfect on all the ladies, this time I havent a fav since they all look gorgeous with it! Maybe, if I have to say a name, will probably say the model Frida, she is a princess, love the accessories and the hairstyle, as seen on the Oscar de la Renta show. Kisses dear, have a great start of the week! xo
I think Fan Bing Bing looks better! ^-^
Nice blog, dear! I love it!

For me Frida win, but I'd put Olga at the 2nd place! ;)

Amazing dress, think everyone looks great but if I have to choose one.... think it would have to be Fan Bing Bing, she's gorgeous! x
olga is my favourite! Amazing dress!
ciao
I love this dress... I think Olga is the better one!
In my opinion, Olga was the best. With her hair style and the clutch. Kisses, Sam:)
uhmmm It's very difficult... maybe Jelena Ristic...

This dress is beautiful, and my pick would be Jelena (what can I say, we are country neighbours :D )! But all girls look quite alike in that gown, but I cannot stand AdR, she annoys me teribly so... Ilina
Such a gorgeous dress no wonder so many people wore it! I think my pick would be Fan Bing Bing just because i love how she wore her hair with it!
Wonderful dress!!!
Olga Stepanenko is my fav, she is so elegant!!!
Have a great start of the new week, my dear Sam!
I actually think the swedish model wore it better. I saw this dress on pinterest and fell in love instantly. It's just so gorgeous!

Olga!
It's such a lovely dress! Wish I could wear it...
I think this is a hard dress to wear for most women, and Anna maybe wore it best as I kind of like her long pendant necklace with it as opposed to wearing just earrings and a bracelet like the others wore, and you are right about her confidence... she rocked that with the dress!

Jelena wore it best!

This is such a graphically striking dress! I like the way Anna carries it off but I also think Olga looks lovely as well.
Thanks for your sweet comment! I hope you'll be able to have another chance to try Shake Shack. If you get to come to NYC, I'll take you there Sam! Yes I do make the smoothies myself. It's pretty simple - just berries blended with coconut milk with a bit of protein powder and flax seeds. I'll see if I can do a recipe post for you sometime :)
Rowena @ rolala loves
Olga Stepanenko looks the best!
What a beautiful gown-I have to say Olga although I can see why you chose Anna-her confidence is so enviable :)
Adorable ,amazing Dress<3
Olga :)
big Hugs!
I love it even more on the initial model!
Between the four celebrities, I think my 'point' goes to Anna Dello Russo, it looks so fierce on her :D!

I like the first two celebrities best as they choose the better jewellery and bags :)

Honestly, Frida the model wears it best. But I'd give second choice to Olga because she has great posture.

I really prefer this on the Frida, I think all of them are great but something is wrong with their styling for me.
I love the necklace it was styled it on Frida and how she carries it with charisma.
I have been dreaming about his last collectio too, the man is a genius!!!
I think it looks really good on Olga!

My vote goes to Olga. It fits her like a glove, and she has amazing poise.
My choice is Olga, she has such a light and graceful way about her that compliments that dress, but they're all great!

My favorite is Olga!!

Sam,
Ooh what a beautiful dress! I can see why so many people wore it. I think that I like how Olga styled hers the best... I'm not sure why. Anyway, thank you for sharing and I hope you have a lovely day!

These all look stunning, but Olga looks that best, to me! I love the effortless take she took on it, choosing to dress it more "down" Her hair looks very pretty and she's rocking it with confidence! It's such a gorgeous dress!

Since the dress is showing itself too much,I can't really understand who wore it really the best..They all look same but I'd go with Olga or Bing Bing

I hate to say it, but none of them did it for me, Frida's the winner.:) All of them are missing some dark statement neck-piece, that really makes the dress even more gorgeous. But that necklace Anna wore... I just don't get it, not with this dress.
Jelena!

For me Olga!
http://rueoh.blogspot.it/
fan bing bing! because her boobs don't look as saggy as the other ladies' ones do. she has the right dainty frame for a strapless gown.
the dress itself is amazing and i just love it.
Actually, I really love this dress on Selena:
http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nybYXp-YISc/UbZfWpemPUI/AAAAAAAAOI0/bLAhwjpMdRc/s640/selena1.jpg (also, when I wanted to find a picture and googled it, the one from your blog popped up, what a coincidence!)
However, if I were to choose from the ones you posted, I would definitely go for Olga. :)
Love this dress on Olga and Jelena. But I adore Anna's style, everything she wears is a work of art, wish I can have her closet haha :)
WOW. This dress is just incredible, so striking. I agree, my vote goes to Anna - loving the attitude and the background of the shot too. Thank you for the kind works on my last post dear!xo
I think Olga looks the best in this dress but I do like that Anna wore a long necklace! I really like that necklace that was paired with it on the runway. :-)
Jayme @ Her Late Night Cravings
I prefer it on Anna Dello Russo, because in my opinion, this dress needs a necklace.
Anna Dello Russo did. She is a modern fashion Goddess.
