She reminds me all those charming high class aunties of good old Caracas of the 80’s and 90’s. No hair out of place, no bad attitude or lack of respect to anyone, especially to their own helping staff. Always gracious, always charming, always classy. Tea time with these high class ladies in Venezuela was nothing to envy Paris or London of the 20th century, just maybe palms, colorful birds and sunny days as typical surrounding.

@@TheMorganVEVO chavism happened. A regime masked with the false name of socialism took over the country and destroyed it. The colorful birds, the gardens, the blue sky and the fresh air remains. But all those elegant aunties and their rich classy families moved to other latitudes of the world. I hope we can all grace our country with our best example to the new lands that welcomed us.

@@maferdash Wow. 😔 That sounds really sad. I’m sorry to hear about that.
super classic as always, Carolina Herrera. No logos, no loudness, no flashiness. It's simple, feminine and tasteful. Not everyone can pull off elegance.
She has a house in Mallorca. A family friend works there. She said she's never met a person more down to earth. I can see why.
I have never seen a woman who look for charming,elegant and beautiful at her age! Simply a stunning woman.
Her taste was impeccable. Total class and ultra feminine. Simply beautiful. I so wish she didn't have to retire, but everything must change. ❤️
What I love about her the most is that she embodies the very elegance that mirrors in her designs!

So true!
fun fact: she designed bella swan's wedding dress for the movie and it took several people and 6 months to finish. I always thought that dress was so gorgeous.
She's a venezuelan icon. Iconic in all the senses.
She's oozing with class.
I don't think that there is a designer with such a classy yet charismatic personality than her, you can't deny she is latina

@Monzo Lena then get used to it. It doesn't matter you find it "weird" , it's just a matter of fact she's Latina and not just a "south-american white woman" 🤦♀️. Latinos have various skin colors and looks. Maybe get more educated instead of trying to assume someone's race just by their looks...

@@dt-cx3vc you completely right, besides in our countries in South America, we don't categorize people based on their skin color like in the US.
Came upon this in 2020 and realized I hadn’t heard the term elegant in years. I doubt that younger generations even have a concept of what that might mean. Thank you Carolina Herrera for reminding us there is such a concept and a wonderful thing to strive for! Carolina is the epitome of grace beauty and elegance. Thank you Carolina! ❤️❤️❤️

Wow! She really is fabulous. I've always adored looking at her fashion pieces in magazines. She styles clothes as she dresses.
I love the word elegant as a description. So many people are throwing the word classy out the wrong way nowadays but they cannot match true elegance.
She is so exquisite! Lover her designs and the way she carries herself.
I love how she can be so objective and critique her work so that it gives space for growth...she believes in her work but always striving to be greater. This is strength! Strong woman. 🤍
She looks intimidating and then she smiles and my heart gets warm. Obsessed with this woman.
Always be on time when you have a interview and dress and impressed at your interview
Pure class!!
My fvorite designer by far! She is the personification of class, elegance and charm!
Wow at the end of the show when she entered total clamour she's so pretty and yes the show just loved everything
Now that's what it means to be a madam...Love her
I love her work and most of all her perfumes. She's amazing.
I have always admired her work..her perfumes are the my favorite!

She is so elegant!
First fashion related vídeo that i actually Like. All the dresses are incredible.

I completely agree with her that some people treat the word elegance like it means old fashioned and prudish.
Just saw her fashion runway on NYFW on CNN, always stunning designs, very elegant, Avant Garde and elegant! Bless you CH!
I love this woman ....she is strong and knows herself...her clothes are beautiful and wearable. She’s smart getting inspiration from a flower..... Who does it better than the Creator ❤️
She came to have a private lunch at Saks and walked in front of me. She wore a black suit, with an elegant gold broche, and black pumps. She was breathtaking.
Carolina Herrera is such a sophisticated, elegant lady! She has exquisite taste, Bravo!
Un ejemplo a seguir una mujer elegante, inteligente y con mucha clase.Sus diseños son clásicos pero innovadores que todo tipo de mujer puede apreciar. “La profundidad de una persona no se mide por la huella que deja al pasar sino por la distancia que abarca su mirada.”-Carolina Herrera "Dama es aquella que no le interesa tener muchos hombres a sus pies, sino uno solo a su altura" - Carolina Herrera
Her Venezuelan accent is undeniable. So proud of this woman. She's an achiever.
such grace and poise !
Carolina, your "caraqueño" accent is always there, it always be there...
Your crisp white shirt is a classic polished fashion staple in every ladies wardrobe. Your signature fabric that allows for molding is elegant. The prints are sharp. I love the use of the flowers in the color prints and flow in the collection. Thank you. Lynn
This women have so much elegant and class. Every time i see her new season collection on KZread, it makes me smile.
From my mother I learned elegance and style Carolina Herrera Provides outstanding fashion for me to continue to enjoy my femininity, my mother is 87 years and still in fashion. Thank you Carolina❤
2019 ... Elegance is timeless
"I need to have a collection that looks like a family...brothers and sisters and they are all related" ...LOL at Ms Carolina
"Si crees que lo que haces es lo mejor, estás equivocado porque no lo es". Ella es tan humilde e inteligente. Es un buen consejo el tener una mentalidad de mejora continua (mentalidad de: "bueno nunca es suficiente").
👍 She Is an amazing woman. love her štýle.
