Babydoll dresses, caged models and romantic silhouettes were notably on display at Valentino's Couture show last night. Entitled 'the dark side of first love', Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli's fourth collection for the Italian label is reminiscent of the Twilight series, a nod to popular culture as Eclipse hysteria sets in.
The designer's signature colour featured in a simple red dress available in floor-lenth or short
The collection, entitled the dark side of first love' was reminiscent of the popular Twilight series. A more confident collection than previous seasons, there is clearly lots more to come from the dynamic duo who replaced Valentino after his final ready-to-wear show in 2007. Amid the wave of nude and monochrome, Valentino's classic red made a reassuring albeit simple appearance with a strapless dress in floor-length and thigh-skimming versions. Gothic-inpsired black was offset by lady-like detailing, soft lace an sophisticated sheer. A bow here, a flower there, Valentino's edgier collection was toned down with feminine accessorising.
