What: With heavy hitters like Karl Lagerfeld and Matthew Williamson having already paved the way, Giambattista Valli is joining the ranks and bringing his couture sensibility  to everyday and special occasion pieces, just in time for the holiday season. No one does color or print like Monsieur Valli and he most certainly doesn’t hold back with this collection. His work not only shows an elegant craftsmanship but his love for the female form and spirit.
“This capsule reflects my enduring loves, but is really a celebration of my biggest inspiration of all – the energy and vitality of women themselves,” said Giambattista Valli. “I love dressing them for all their happiest moments, making them feel as special as possible. This collection is a passport into my world and a chance to experience the passion and romance of my house and Paris itself.”
