I was dubious about the new
Valentino Couture collection for Spring Summer 2012, only because I thought I'd be bored or something. Yes, it has the same vibe/flavor it's been having since Master Valentino left the thrown. But it is gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. I was even more excited because I actually own a real Valentino dress that looks like it belongs with this collection! It's what I call my Valentino "prairie dress". So this group of new dresses, to me, does look authentic, even though they didn't include one little red thread anywhere (gasp!). I would love to own some or all of these.♡

| my vintage valentino is this shape...maybe a bit more narrow on the bottom... |
 |
| i love how girly this is. dunno where you would wear it. but it's pretty to look at. |
 |
| my vintage valentino has a print that looks more like this one...only it's beige on taupe. |
 |
| i also own a vintage dress just like this...i call it my vintage wedding sweater dress. it's almost identical. and very heavy. you have to be a tall twig to wear things like this. |
 |
| i love this dress so much. just to have. just to have it hanging in the closet. :) |
 |
| i also love the dress maria grazia chiuri is wearing. |

It's a lovely collection - very romantic, very 19th century. I love how the floral print is back!
ReplyDeleteI will be looking forward to a spring full of light, transparent fabrics and pastel colours. Oh... if only it was spring already :)
