HC: Slavic. Valentino SS15

VAL_1914


Wow. I am moved. Valentino did a collection totally dedicated to Slavic culture and heritage. I definitely see so many Eastern Europpean accents – cubic prints inspired with  Marc Chagall; Polish ethno dresses; romantic embroidery; warm and and charming textiles. Chagall, in particular, captivated Maria Grazia and Pierpaolo Piccioli. "He had an incredible life, very hard, but he maintained his optimistic vision," Piccioli said. The painter's Belarussian origins provided a leitmotif for the embellishments that are so central to the designers' aesthetic – bold, but with a toned touch. If talking of romance, Valentino also made hair decorated with real flowers – that was a cherry on the top of the cake. So, a Slavic person, I approve this collection.
