Carolina Herrera has always been the epitome of elegance at New York Fashion Week and her Spring/Summer 2012 collection is no exception.  The line up consists of gorgeous cocktail tones, mostly of fruity reds, greens and yellows as well as some standard neutrals in blueish stone greys and some browns, all shown with models walking not on the centre of the runway, but towards the sides in a u-shape formation.

Most of the pieces are casual elegant – great barbecues and casual luncheons or dinners at the country club or yacht club with the mid-length skirts as well as the various jacket combinations. The longer, more formal gowns also had summery silver tones – an amazing addition to anyone’s wardrobe in time for wedding season!
