Schifman and Morrone knew the Carolina Herrera dress silhouette was a perfect fit for theOscars carpet, with Schifman citing style icon Princess Grace as their inspiration for the look. So they reached out to the Carolina Herrera design team to turn the design from aisle-ready to red carpet ready.
“We reached out and said ‘Hey, we love this gown…but we don’t need it for a wedding. If we could kind of shift it around, make some changes…And Wes [Gordon, the brand’s Creative Director], was super into it,”Schifman told theInStyleprior to the awards show on Sunday night. “So, we started with that silhouette and built the look around that.”
“We changed the color — it’s obviously not white, it’s more of a blush — and there’s exposed boning that you see through the lace that makes it a little more modern and not read super princess-y,” she added.
