In a bold departure from the sombre farewells often seen in fashion, designer Gabriela Hearst literally danced her way out of Chloe at her final show Thursday (Sept 28), radiating pure, unapologetic joy.

Rather than poignant goodbyes, Hearst opted for lively samba beats, leaving an indelible mark on the onlookers as she lithely pirouetted past guests carefree alongside one of Brazil's most reputed Samba schools.
