GIAMBATTISTA VALLI SPRING 2011

Image
In more than one way the designs of Giambattista Valli are a reinterpretation of the life, architecture, decoration, and sensations found at versailles. Valli gave all the pieces the form and designs, as well as the sensations of the Petit Trianon. He gave the collection the ease and softness of life at the Trianon, the organza petals and skirts combined with the sandals and the soft colors alludes to the romantic and easy life lived there by Marie Antoinette. The color pallet in the collection is a sample of all the colors found in the architecture and landscape, and the prints and embroidery are fragments of the Baroque stucco that decorated the buildings. Valli describes his collection as "romantic, rebel, rock and royal". I describe his work as genius; He managed to reinterpret the Trianon and the life lived there in a very smart and beautiful way!.

"The designers' focused Spring collection wasn't so much a step forward as it was a refinement of ideas they proposed for Fall." - style.com, Nicole Phelps Pier Paolo Piccioli and Maria Grazia Chiuri did miracles with fabric, they played with a sepia palette and gave color in the accessories. Ruffles, lace and embroidery were the protagonists of the season which gave e ach piece a careless, soft and extremely detailed complexion.
