Carolina Herrera's Lovely Fall Collection Will Take You Straight to the Garden

Carolina Herrera might have designed a line for Fall 2016, but that didn't keep her from springtime pastels; lightweight, floaty skirts; and all the flowery details you might expect from the fashion house. The show was situated around a quiet garden at The Frick Collection art museum, after all.

Herrera knows the Carolina girl very well — loyalists include Olivia Palermo, Hilary Rhoda, Emmy Rossum, and Kate Bosworth, all of whom sat in the front row. For the daytime, she finds feminine sophistication in tailored, coordinated sets and playfully printed midis paired with collared blouses. But at night, she opts for glamour: statement gowns with floral appliqué trains, chiffon layers, or unexpected scatterings of sequins.

Perhaps the best way to describe the transition from Carolina's most casual looks to her dreamy dresses is with Karlie Kloss's appearance on the runway. The supermodel opened the show in a pleated A-line dress and closed it in a breathtaking red-carpet-worthy purple design, bringing the collection full circle. Read on for the 12 moments you won't want to miss from Herrera's latest offering.
