Fashion career profile
Fernando Garcia
Fernando Garcia is Co-Creative Director of Oscar de la Renta, a position he has shared with Laura Kim since 2016. Garcia studied architecture at the University of Notre Dame before moving to New York, where an internship at Oscar de la Renta led to six years as a principal designer. He and Kim founded Monse in 2016, a separate company and creative practice that is recorded alongside, not inside, the Oscar de la Renta role. The directory presents Garcia’s mandate as genuinely shared leadership across the house rather than assigning either co-creative director sole authorship. It preserves his design history without inferring an executive, ownership or financial role at the privately held brand.
