Carolina Herrera is in her rose period for Spring/Summer 2016, creating a collection about tranquility, not stillness but calm elegance – where transparency and illusion evoke sensuality.

Sheer layering with silk and variations of techno fabric from appliqués on tulle to all-over panels suggest lightness, floating on the body – an impression of pleats in motion – underscoring clothes can be sensual and revealing but still leave “something for the imagination.”

Leather and organza paillettes and touches of feather embroidery on soft silhouettes harmonize with raised hemlines, embodying an attitude of uncomplicated style.

The spectrum of rose, pale blush to a bold fuchsia, acts as a rich palette to explore for both neutrals and strong accents.
