Giambattista Valli S/S 09 Paris - Page 2

Brighid · 02-10-2008

Beautiful dresses, I love the shapes and fabrics. Wonderful

Oh wow, another stunning collection from Valli, what can i say; i'm such a sucker for poof dresses and i love the details on the print dress, also it seems he is doing more full lenght dresses with each collection which is fantastic imo.

But i have to say the shoes look amazing although a tad to much like Balenciaga f/w, almost the same sole.

I am head over heels from these designs. I see a combination of Valentino and McQueen, and some other influences. Overall, it's really GORGEOUS.

I quite like some of this but those big gowns look REALLY unflattering.

Where you heard it from?

Oh well, Valli always come out with things that are unflattering, but I do think it affects how gorgeous they still is.

I agree. Nice but unoriginal. I associate Valli with more of a sexy twist.. Not full-blown gowns.

I could care less if it is Velentino or McQueen. I love this.!

McQueen-Valentino-Dolce&Gabbana-esque.

This is so overdone, too big, too puffy, too fussy. He used to be able to inject some sense of today in his couture-y shapes....seems he lost that somewhere along the line and decided to take the Zac Posen route of making women look like parade floats.
