As you in the States getting prepared for the oncoming autumnal chill, Giambattista Valli
is deep in the heart of Spring. From bold blue eyeshadow to gladiator
sandals that cascaded to the upper calf with platform soles glistening
with glitter, his Spring collection was an ode to all things pretty and
youthful, with bare legs, chiffon, and ruffles to boot.
The stylish decades of the 60’s and 70’s were the influences with
swing coats in flirty floral prints, expertly-tailored suiting, and
collarless rocker chic jackets. A modern edge was injected with
statement-making studs, eye-catching embellishment, and fierce strappy
sandals.
The sheer dress trend made an appearance in bold hues and vibrant
patterns with crystal adornment, embroidered cups, sophisticated
neckties, and sultry keyholes. We’ll definitely see at least one or two
of the gowns on display during awards season.
Was there anything rebellious or radical about what Valli offered up?
Not quite, but is there anything wrong with lively and bold designs
oozing with femininity? Not at all. The clothes emitted approachability,
grace, and fun: the kind of looks you want not only for Spring, but in
your wardrobe year-round.
