Before the FROW: Carolina Herrera’s NYFW street style was on point

Bold prints and major volume dominated the looks outside the spring-summer 2020 presentation, attended by celebrities from Vanessa Hudgens to Valentina

While the  Carolina Herrera  spring-summer 2020 catwalk at  New York Fashion Week  was an explosion of color created by the fashion house’s creative director Wes Gordon, Tuesday’s front row was just as head-turning, especially as the guests, from Hollywood stars to influencers, made their arrivals, getting a chance to show off their head to toe street style. Bold prints and major volume dominated the looks outside the show, attended by celebrities from  Vanessa Hudgens  to RuPaul’s Drag Race Latina diva Valentina, where fashionistas interpreted the House of Herrera’s ultra-chic ladies-who-lunch vibe through a cool, vibrant lens.

As summer comes to and end and fall moves in, these looks definitely made us already look forward to a gorgeous spring! Scroll through to see all the stars and street style from the Carolina Herrera show.

Rent: Live star Vanessa Hudgens was one of the few FROW guests that didn’t opt for a bright hue, instead arriving in a sexy lingerie-inspired look consisting of a bralet and hot pants worn with a print jacket. “A beautiful show today,” she said of the catwalk presentation on social media.

Lemon yellow

One of the standout shades when it came to street style was bright yellow, which brings a sunny vibe to even a pre-fall day. And we’re taking note that white shoes are also a go!

Bold florals

Another yellow look we love – this time with a vivid floral print in a shirtdress-meets-maxidress look.

Texture and color block

A high-necked maxidress with tiered, embroidered color (there’s that yellow again!) is a pretty perfect ensemble.
