About the brand
Carolina Herrera is a luxury fashion house founded in 1981 by Venezuelan-born designer Carolina Herrera, who launched her brand in New York City despite having no formal design training. Encouraged by Vogue editor Diana Vreeland, she debuted her first collection at Manhattan's exclusive Metropolitan Club, quickly gaining recognition from high-profile clients including Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. The brand is renowned for its signature aesthetic of crisp white blouses paired with full ballgown skirts, embodying what Herrera describes as feminine designs that are "sophisticated, easy-to-wear, and not too trendy." Today, under creative director Wes Gordon since 2018, Carolina Herrera continues as a global luxury brand offering womenswear, menswear, children's wear, accessories, home collections, and fragrances, maintaining its reputation for timeless elegance and modern sophistication that appeals to multiple generations of discerning clients.
