[AGiles]

the thing about valentino thats great is he will sell almost all of these looks valentino is the only one who really sells couture.

I think this is the first time since... ever that they don't wear red lipstick.

As for the clothes, they're pretty and airy and fluffy and like every single seson past.

I quite like some of these dresses (in a nostalgic sense) because they seem so very 1960's.

There are lots of very pretty and nice elements here, but there is nothing here which wows me, sadly. Although I like the soft color palette, I would have preferred to see a bit more variation.

I was looking forward to seeing this collection because I had loved the RTW, but I prefer that collection to this

Hmm i actually like th dresses beautiful, feminine and floaty but i would never wear them with the range of jackets etc that they have put with it -

esp love the sheer short layered white dress in post #7, and also the dress in 13 (reminds me of chanel a few years back? put still pretty)

Totally agree with you two... imagine if you put those hairband and red lipstick on the models,, it is almost the same as the SS07 show... yet it is a good collection though...

It reminds me of a bunch of gowns for a princess doll. =]

It's very...similiar to his recent RTW collection, and I think he should have DEFINATELY stepped up the game. but it isn't horrible.

Usually I love the Valentino HC but this...not so much. I actually like the hair, I'm getting a Breakfast at Tiffany's reference here. And the gown on Hilary is stunning! But not my favourite collection.

too pink and this doesn't look couture...

[Mr-Dale]

I'm very underwhelmed...it's subdued, nothing wrong with that...but it's lacking originality and wowza...hmmm

[Miss Dalloway]

It is very similar to RTW even some dresses look the same but thats not necessarily a bad thing.I think its beautiful and romantic.................

I agree. People here are mentioning Dior this and Dior that. But who actually wears those Dior getups???

What people here on tFS praise Galliano for is not what you see his clients actually wear.

I love Valetino, but I don't like the color scheme of this collection. Maybe when the pictures of the entire collection get posted up style.com or another website, I might like it better.
