RUNWAY REPORT.....Paris Fashion Week: Valentino RTW Spring/Summer 2019 Photos + VIDEO!




Valentino Spring/Summer 2019



WHAT: Valentino Ready-to-Wear Spring/Summer 2019 by Pierpaolo Piccioli.






Pierpaolo Piccioli--Valentino Spring/Summer 2019



INSPIRATION: Pierpaolo Piccioli said he was thinking of "paradises, about artists' colonies of the past".



SEEN ON THE RUNWAY: Gorgeous, stunning fashion. Inspired by Matisse and Gauguin, the colors were vibrant and stunning. The silhouettes: voluminous, Alta Moda-like. Tent dresses, gathered blouson sleeves, lace pajama ensembles. Black, white, Valentino red. This collection was ready-to-wear designs coming very, very, VERY close to COUTURE-like status. If you are a woman with about $15,000 to spend on a dress, DO IT! (less expensive than a $100,000 Valentino Haute Couture one!)
