Venezuelan aristocrat Carolina Herrera created her first collection in 1981 at the prompting of Diana Vreeland. She expanded into bridal in 1987 and opened her flagship on Madison Avenue in 2000. Herrera founded a diffusion line, CH Carolina Herrera, in 2002, which includes fragrances, menswear, handbags, and shoes. The label is known for timeless ensembles for ladies who lunch and celebs who crave a touch of class. Tweedy skirt-suits, crisp white blouses, fitted jackets, prim cocktail frocks, and embellished evening gowns keep the glamorous label—and designer—at the top of the heap.

She has a European sensibility, which is one of the reasons Jackie loved her clothes so much." —André Leon Talley The Telegraph“It's very attractive, very intelligent, how she's handled her career. It adds to her mystery and allure. She pays attention to the consumer, not to the press.” —Bill Blass The Telegraph
