Abstract. The paper examines simile as a feature of the author’s style of O. Wilde. The subject of the study is the use of simile in the novel "The Picture of Dorian Grey". The examples found in the text have been analyzed from the point of view of their structural peculiarities and the images employed. Implicit and explicit similes are singled out; the latter are grouped according to the structure. The results of the research have shown that simile is used as a means of intensifying the meaning and is an integral part of the author’s style.
