Other notable Oscar getups that Hillary has worn in the spotlight include a teal suit with a pearl choker for her speech at the Democratic National Convention leading up to Bill's 1996 election and a taupe 1996 Election Night suit. That was after she wore a royal-blue Oscar outfit for Obama's daytime swearing-in ceremony. Not only did Hillary select a shimmery gold long-sleeved Oscar gown for the inaugural balls after Bill Clinton’s swearing-in in 1997 (the First Lady turned to de la Renta after receiving less-than-rave reviews for her 1992 inauguration choice: a purple crystal-encrusted Sarah Phillips number) but she also sported a pink and gray embroidered Oscar frock to President Barack Obama's evening inauguration balls. But it's a closet full of Oscar that has made Chelsea's mom, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, one of Hill's haute dressers.
De la Renta designed Laura Bush's 2005 inauguration gown and Jenna Bush Hager's 2008 wedding dress, and he’s outfitted Nancy Regan too. Until Jason Wu came along, Oscar had all but been elected the District's official dressmaker. If family ties have anything to do with it, then all signs point to Oscar de la Renta. Now that Chelsea Clinton has announced that's she's engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Marc Mezvinsky, who will design the bridge-to-be's wedding gown?
