What people are saying

ELLE

Plissé, embellishment and draping anchored the collection—from floor-length floral gowns to structured bows—and one shimmering beaded dress that could be heard as it swayed by.

This collection had a lighthearted nature that was as heartwarming as it was beautiful.

The bright colors, excess embellishment, and penchant for things (like bows) that make even the most jaded fashion lovers feel warm and fuzzy has a lot of power in a time when the world feels like it's going a little bit haywire.

Did you know that Giambattista Valli's couture dresses, which you can recognize by the tulle fabric, excessive volumes, and bright colors are among the longest to create? One designer's couture gown can take approximately 240 hours and 6,000 meters of fabric to make.

To wear a Giambattista Valli couture gown is to indulge in a rare sort of fantasy, if not for the bold colors and incredible embellishments, for sheer size and volume alone.

Many of the models wore flat shoes, giving the pieces a real-world feel, even if the gowns were incredibly extravagant.

The huge ballgowns, both in featherweight tulle and more serious taffetas and satins really characterise the name at Couture. Valli relishes clouds of fabric in amazing volumes swelling the floor, and his colour palette can swing from acidic bright to watercolour softness.

Valli believes that couture rhymes with the notion of amplification, and resonates with everything “out of the ordinary.” His is a practice similar to an art form, where shapes are sculpted through draping, and volumes are created by listening to what fabrics are whispering, or, as he puts it, “what they have to say.”

The effervescent, excessive volumes of his couture collection were inspired by fresh blossoms, and by the soothing power of nature.

Interspersed among the abundance of rustling taffeta silks in pale colours, some printed with ombré shadows of flowers, were a handful of outstanding numbers in obsidian-black velvet. They added a dash of regal drama and dark romance to an otherwise whimsical repertoire of elysian filles-en-fleur.

A hallmark of haute couture lies in its impeccable craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. Each garment is meticulously constructed by skilled artisans, employing traditional techniques that have been passed down through generations.
