Prettiest 2000s Valentino Roma Metallic Gold Sequin & Bead Silk Chiffon on Netting Top and Skirt Set

  • The Valentino Roma label launched in 2000 to take the place of the Miss V line. It was sold at a price point that was a bit more accessible then their main line and was meant to be available in more shops then the main line would be. The pieces were still very well made. This one caught my eye simply because of how gorgeous and sexy it is. It is a stunning set with a beautiful amount of detailing on it. 
  • It is two pieces. A little sleeveless top and its matching skirt. Having the two pieces means you can mix and match it with other things you already own.
  • Even though the outer layer is netting and transparent it has a built-in inner nude silk chiffon lining that allows it to be opaque enough to be worn.
  • Over that inner layer of chiffon the pieces are have a layer of a nude netting that has that amazing sequin and bead design applied over its surface.
  • The neckline of the top dips in a V and then extends over the shoulders. The back of the top is a double layer of the chiffon without any added embellishment. 
  • I love how the front is all done to highlight the lines of the piece and that it continues all the way to the pretty scalloped hem at the front. I have taken shots of it tucked into the skirt as well as one un-tucked so that you can see the full front. It is a definite nod back to the 1920s in how it feels. 
  • The skirt has a banded waist defined by more beads and sequins. It curves over the hips and then flares out from there to the hem. The placement of the gold sequins and beads over the skirt emphasize the cut perfectly.
  • I have taken close-up shots of the sequin and bead work for you to see how beautiful it is. They mix tiny pale gold sequins with tiny seed beads. Larger square cut gold sequins have been mixed into the pattern so they reflect the light differently. In between all of that are iridescent ivory sequins that give the set a beautiful extra glint in the light. These are all set to form the pattern that you see over the entire set. 
  • With all of the sequins and beads applied onto it the pieces catches the light perfectly from every angle and every angle that you view them from is absolutely stunning.
  • The top closes with a hidden set side zipper and the skirt closes at the side with a hidden set zipper. I see a tiny very faint mark on the back of the top. It would not photo and is very minor but mentioned for accuracy.
