Valentino haute couture estate 2017
VALENTINO.Almost a debut for Pier Paolo Piccioli who, without Maria Grazia Chiuri – now creative director for Dior – personally designed this new Haute Couture Collection. Everything is pure, minimalistic in its linearity, where pleats are the rigorous and surprising protagonists of a new contemporary classicism. Fluid lines, like true Vestals from a time once lost and then found. A time marked by the poetry of a dream. The superb tailoring skills of the Maison are present in the almost ethereal graciousness of embroideries, of the overlapping layers of reinvented materials. An unstinted tension towards the essential.
