JOY A state of happiness or felicity:

Throughout his decades-long career, Oscar de la Renta was renowned for his romantic eveningwear, which was characterized by sculptural shapes and saturated colors. Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, who were appointed co-creative directors of the brand in 2016, have expressed their desire to capture the joie de vivre in De la Renta's designs. Covered in flowers that are realistically rendered in silk and bead embroidery, this dress conveys the sense of joy and renewal often associated with springtime.
