Valentino S/S 2025 Paris

For all its flaws its still better than Sabato's Gucci.

But this is such a low bar.

This is kind of becoming your catchphrase...

Why can’t design better than our friend at Gucci is the real question. Harris Reed?

 

[Irere]

If one's output for two brands as different as Gucci and Valentino looks this similar, then that means the person in question is simply doing what they know and want to do, and it may sell well for a while, but brand-specific it is not.

Conversely, anyone who wasn’t mentally ill or comatose knew that, by hiring Alessandro Michele, this was exactly what Valentino was going to get. So Mayhoola had to have wanted this Biba-on-mescaline nightmare because they actively sought this guy out and hired him.

Mayhoola doesn’t want Valentino. Mayhoola wants the Michele Disco Macramé Sad Clown Peyote Caravan, and they’re getting it — good and hard.

I DONT CARE ABOUT THIS,
But please return the old Valentino Couture glamour...

Nah… I think this collection is a stronger karma for what Valentino Garavani did to Alessandra Facchinetti, I am sure she’s somewhere out there laughing while looking at how things slowly crumble down at Valentino from this particular season onwards until Alessandro Michele leaves the maison

He will be only a season or 2 just like the Tom Ford's right hand man

I had seen Mrs Diana Vreeland's wearing something similar. Probably a gift from VG

It´s a minimalist collection by Alessandro Michele (comparing to what he did at Gucci...and to what he will surely do for next seasons to come at Valentino).

But copying archival clothes and mixing them with crazy accessories is not the work of a designer. It is the work of a stylist (or some children with too much free time).

What bothers me the most is the casting really.

You can watch the video frederic (thanks) posted and see it. Has to be the worst generation of models. Emotionless, zombified, the clothes always wear them and not the inverse.

Maybe the show diretors ruined everything too not allowing the models to smile or pose or just emote.

Some of the clothes were beautiful but they look like hangers on skinny bodies particularly the male models because some of those looks I really like but they were so young and frail.

I can part-time shitpost @gucci accounts from @Valentino accounts for a high six-figure salary.

Of course they will need a new head of corp comms. I mean, how can someone who is used to clean line elegance start shitposting and blowing horns about thrift store maximalism no f*cking way man...

you know it wasnt a totally successful debut when the best praise his stans can make is "its so valentino" coupled with a few pictures from the past slightly resembling valentino. I hope someone locks the print section of their fabrics. So that micheles forced to use non-prints. Im sure he will do such amazing collections in plain fabrics.

I put my hand on a tweed and leather bomber jacket and one of those bay by bay sneakers, BUT I will go the store cause the 1st menswear drop isn't convincing online and the website needs a revamp, it hasn't evolved in years and still looks cheap right now (like the Bally and Ferragamo ones). But they are plenty of interesting separates for women.
So indeed they are needing a Global Communication head, not me though, I am too busy doing things.
