What I like about Oscar de la Renta is that there are almost always a few looks, like this one. that feel 1984 in the most unironic, utterly timeless way.

Here you’re probably cruising the French Riviera with some guy named Monte.

Please note the prevalence of kitten-heeled, pointy-toe shoes in this slideshow. Gorgeous.

The resort could be in Tukwila and you’d be good to go in this little number.

Where: Mario’s

What: Well sure it’s a little hard to think about next year’s resort season when this year’s fall/winter hasn’t broke a cold sweat yet, but cruise through the straw boater hats, tea dresses, and gala gowns pictured here from Oscar de la Renta’s 2011 collection and see if you wouldn’t at least mind entertaining the notion of one-shoulder dresses and tropical cruises.

If you find you like it there (on the imaginary Lido Deck), you might also like visiting the Sixth Avenue retailer and getting some close-ups of what the next go-round of warmth is going to look and feel like.

When: September 14 and 15 from 10 to 5
