The house Carolina Herrera built is celebrating its 45th year, and it is doing so under a new creative director, Wes Gordon, who now carries the label forward from its founder. Alongside him, Emilie Rubinfeld holds the title of president, rounding out the leadership steering the brand into its next chapter. A house changing hands is often the riskiest moment in fashion — this one is being held up as a case study in doing it right.

With reporting from Vogue.
