A Vision Rooted in Friendship and Shared Aesthetic
The collaboration is the result of a strong creative bond between Erik Torstensson, co-founder and creative director of Frame, and Wes Gordon, creative director at Carolina Herrera. The designers were driven by the idea of answering a key question: What does a Carolina Herrera client wear when she’s not in a gown? The goal was to create a collection that celebrates both the glamour of the Herrera brand and the craftsmanship of Frame’s denim, offering customers stylish yet wearable pieces that suit both relaxed and elevated moments.
The Collection: Five Versatile Silhouettes

Each piece is designed to be both versatile and stylish, blending everyday comfort with high-end glamour. The collection is available in a vibrant color palette of Herrera’s signature hues, including Herrera Red, Marigold, Celeste, Currant Cranberry, and White—bringing a fresh pop of color to denim.
Price Range and Availability
The limited-edition collection is priced between $498 and $1,198, reflecting its luxury status. It is now available for purchase at both Carolina Herrera and Frame retail locations, as well as through high-end department stores including Net-a-Porter, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, Bloomingdale’s, and Leigh’s.
