Valentino Spring 2016 at Haute Couture Week
By Haute Couture Week | 30 January 2016

The house of Valentino provided a fashionable history of art lesson in Paris on Wednesday night, as it showcased its Spring 2016 haute couture collection.

Under the creative direction of designers Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli, the Italian label whipped up a classical collection of show-stopping gowns that felt both timeless and modern. Featuring floor-skimming, off-the-shoulder Grecian robes creased into sharp pleats and swishy velvet columns decorated with ornate bronze harnesses, the result was a demure yet worldly aesthetic rooted in technicality and expertise.

Structures were fluid without being overly loose and the color palette offered up an opulent combination of rich creams, deep olive greens and resplendent burgundies. Semi-sheer chiffons, plunging necklines and beaded kaftans worn with nothing underneath meant that there was plenty of skin on show, and yet the overall effect was one of highly serene virtuousness.
