Why was Valentino Couture parade so impressive?

In fashion we have easy criticism. Parade series can contribute to the complaint (at the same time, it is true that we can no longer be this rain) and criticism of who they love it. .. but? ” And yet, today the Valentino parade was heard by an ounce of denial. On the contrary. “Incredible”, “fabulous”, “wonderful”, “What talent” … These are the views that raining at the end of the show should be said that it is actually unforgettable.

I have to admit that I have left frankly with positive bias. I admire the work of Alessandro Michelle for years. After the treasures produced in Gucci, I was more than excited to discover what he was reserved for Valentino. His first ready-made parade with his own naval outlines, while thrown, lace and really, was not disappointed with his cultural turbines. But Haute Couture is another question. It is a dangerous exercise that does not correspond to all the designers, even the most talented. He expects time collections, small works of art that require hundreds of hours by hand and which everyone should be exceptional.

For his first Haute Couture parade, Alessandro Michele chose the principle of the list. From the text of Umberto Eco, List of Vertigo, Who says, among other things, “the list is in the origins of culture,” he said in the text that accompanies the parade. “Each clothes, unique, finite and incomparable words.” A number of and if, sometimes the concept of “concept” allows you to hide small working clothes, the opposite is true. The 48 dresses presented each of them well presented their own, dream, haltar, unpublished, neat space. The whole, however, was very united, as if an invisible thread was connected to each creation between them.

Magic details have been such as a delicate brilliant ankle chain, decorated with dancing pride, modern Crinoline, preparing to go to the ball, floral print, in the air of Impressionist painting. As often as Alessandro Michelle, it was abundant, full of links and is still available to everyone. The Creator brought his flammable universe to a rich house with an incredible heritage. The merger of this story and this look gave a parade that was unanimously, when the offer was also surprising.
