Fashion Week: Carolina Herrera’s “It” Factor for Denver

The Carolina Herrera woman is always tastefully attired, and this collection gives her plenty of wardrobe options. Although Herrera’s daywear is–especially by Denver’s standards–very dressed up, items like a liquid satin blouse paired with a skinny trouser will easily work here on a casual night out. The Gist: This is a glamorous collection, featuring luxe fabrics, exquisite tailoring, and a rich color palette of bronze, purple, silver-gray, and blue. The designer works her opulent materials into loose blouses, high-waist skirts, slim pants, fitted jackets and–of course–a variety of red-carpet-worthy gowns. For the real world, the best silhouettes have a younger and more modern feel to counter the heavy fabrics, like a silver-gray nipped-waist jacket and matching skinny pant paired with a black satin blouse, a bronze blouse with a metallic corseted skirt, and a swagged one-shoulder gown in black and silver-gray.
