The Happiest Clothes on Earth

From left, Louis Vuitton, Roberto Cavalli, and RodartePhotos: Imaxtree

We didn’t want to notice it, but we couldn’t help ourselves. Fall runways seemed straight out of a Disney fairy tale with princess dresses galore. At Rodarte, sky-blue dresses were ethereal yet disheveled, like Alice just wandered out of the rabbit hole in spiky Louboutins. Marc Jacobs continued his sherbet-colored parade at Louis Vuitton, where the final look was a dead ringer for Cinderella’s entrance at the royal ball. And at Roberto Cavalli, the designer went so far as to top feminine and flowing dresses with glittery tiaras. Perfect for a trip to any magic kingdom. —Kendall Herbst
