Both innovative and profound


It can be seen that in the couture series of this season, Pierpaolo celebrates our ordinary everyday by combining the beauty of everyday items and haute couture craftsmanship, making these days precious, thus achieving a kind of equality of class concept at the aesthetic level.

Looking at the entire Valentino Fall/Winter 2023 haute couture collection, we can see the very typical Pierpaolo Piccioli line beauty, especially under the guidance of the key creative logic of simplification, this quality is more extreme.

The elegant silhouette highlights the tailoring art of Pierpaolo Piccioli.

The simple and straight lines in the modeling are gently transformed into beautiful curves that fit the body when the model walks, demonstrating the combination of sculptural texture and soft beauty.

Only the pendant silhouette comes from the pendant lines in the building, which is solemn and classic. Meanwhile, the depiction of clothing in the oil painting and sculpture art also influences Pierpaolo's presentation of the design lines.

This season we can see many capes, coats and coats with architectural shapes and aesthetics, as well as emphasized folds in the shape like classical fabric ripples in sculpture.

The large area of fabric and the simplified and reduced seams make each piece look complete and harmonious, and the essence of the interpretation of haute couture is still simple and pure under the guidance of profound aesthetics and philosophy.

Pierpaolo Piccioli's extreme use of color has been very significant in the past design, PP pink led the rose in the whole fashion trend, but also his avant-garde attitude towards color.

The collocation and use of large-area bright color blocks make Valentino not only bold romantic temperament, but also simple and straightforward characteristics of modern art.

This season we can see that in addition to black and white colors, such as rose, peach, lapis blue, bright green, emerald and other high saturation colors are applied to large fabrics, creating a strong visual contrast in the ancient castle.

You can also see Valentino's classic red burst into new vitality on the show.

At the beginning of Pierpaolo Piccioli's couture for Valentino, red was rarely used out of respect and awe for this classic color.

It was not until the creation of the Shanghai series at the end of 2013 that the meaning of this color to the brand was officially reconstructed.

Today, we can also see the new and modern Valentino from this classic color.

These bright colors may help to reflect the details of the clothing, make the light and shade between each fold more significant, so that the fabric presents a better texture, or expand the romantic temperament of the color in the form of printing, or become a bright canvas, so that the delicate and gorgeous embroidery and bright three-dimensional flowers on the fabric are more bright and beautiful.

Lightness is the hidden key word of this season's Valentino Fall/Winter 2023 haute couture collection.

While maintaining the texture of the fabric, it can make people feel smart and elegant during the walk of the model, it is not intended to bring people a heavy autumn and winter texture, on the contrary, it is exceptionally smart.

This is a change that Pierpaolo Piccioli has been thinking about since he joined Valentino in 1999.

At that time, the haute couture even in the simple lines, still hidden layers of tulle

He wanted to rebuild the way to express the volume of clothing in the high standard, while still ensuring its luxurious temperament.
