Same here, i would wear almost all of it, i do dislike the full lenght gowns though, they are not his strong point, and i categorically disagree with everyone who compared this to Posen, Zac could only wish he had half of Valli's talent.

i am really worried about poor Valli...
as he seems to have hardly enough ideas to develop for only one collection, how tragic could it be if he was ever in charge of yet another one...
reckon he'd just present half of the collection at each house?



PS: we all know what other house, dont we? you've heard the rumours, havent you?

ooops you forgot Irina K who closed the show!

The last dresses remind me of some sort of hybrid betwen McQueen's Oyster dress, the last dress from McQueen FW 2004, and this from Dior HC SS 1997......

All this would look great on all the young and beautiful Hollywood starlet!!

God those last gowns really are some sort of meringue nightmare.....

Like the pastel version of the Stay Puff marshmallow man from Ghostbusters.

They're like a walking toothache.

Valli. Valli. Valli. Valli. Valli.


I said I wouldn't look until the video came out, but I waited long enough.


I'm still too numb to form an opinion.

...and if this is what Valentino is to become (hopefully NOT)...all I can say is yikes.

Oh i dont i really didnt read any rumors about him taking over another house.

I hate the philosophy of big gowns = couture finesse. Those gowns would completely swallow any woman who wore them who isn't 5'11'' and would make one without toothpick arms look like a snowman.

[disco54]

this is too Haute couture looking

[loverdariafreja]

he's rumored to be taking over Valentino!! there are rumours that Faschinetti is gonna get fired after the Valentino show. she's really becoming 2-season-Alessandra.

I'm loving ALMOST all of the pieces, except the bow dress. It's definitely NOT valli at all. But others still managed to hang onto the valli signature.

And hate all you want guys, I'm still giving the collection high scores.
