Let’s not even pretend that Carolina Herrera is anything more than a society woman’s evening wear brand. Once you have accepted that, then this collection is easy to digest.
I love…
a traditional evening gown shape with a feminine, graphic print.
interesting pleats and tucks.
a designer who designs precisely what she herself will wear.
the embellishments and colour tones on this dress. It almost looks couture.
I loathe…
ridiculous lace ballgowns.
ridiculous puffball gowns. With a black bow floating in the middle. This is debutante ball territory, and that scares me.
