Wes Gordon—Creative Director of Carolina Herrera—Talks Honoring Herrera's Legacy, Storytelling Through Design, and Disregarding Fashion Rules

This week, Editor in Chief Kat Collings chats with Wes Gordon, the creative director behind the legendary womenswear brand Carolina Herrera. Before taking the reins at the glamorous New York heritage brand in 2018, Gordon ran his own successful namesake line for eight years, establishing himself as a visionary with staying power. Today, he's sharing how graduating into a recession gave him the hard skills he'd need to one day run Carolina Herrera, why we should disregard the archaic fashion rules around how to wear color, and what kind of storytelling to expect from his upcoming fall/winter 2024 collection as New York Fashion Week approaches.
