Carolina Herrera, Spring 2011

Carolina Herrera's designs are not by any means of my taste, so naturally you wouldn't find nearly anything of hers in my blog. Don't get me wrong... I think she's a brilliant designer and knows how to make women look stunning with class. This post is quite a surprise considering, again, I have remotely no interest in evening gowns. Do notice, however, that I am Korean. And Herrera decided to take her Spring 2011 inspiration from the land of my forefathers. I couldn't pass this up. She is ingenious for taking the traditional concept of a traditional Korean costume and using it to create a modern evening gown without being too literal (except for the hats). I have to admit... traditional Korean costume is beautiful, and this collection is stunning.
