• This dress is from the Fall 2015 collection and you can see it's references in the photos that we have included here from the ready-to-wear show.
• In 2015 both Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli were the acting creative directors for Valentino.
• The neckline is high and comes up in a neat collar around the neck. There is a single layer of the netting that runs across the front and back upper bodice.
• The sleeves are net and have an added dot and suggestion of a vertical stripe worked into the netting. They are made of a double layer of the tulle and each sleeve is slightly puffed above its end.
• The top of the bodice is cut straight across and that continues around to the back. The bodice is has a n overlaid panel of the same netting used for the sleeves. The panel hangs over a lace trimmed and dot netting layer that is stacked over an inner silk. It skims over you to the waist which is cut on the more generous side.
• The skirt falls from there to the floor and it is made up of five more tiers of the dotted netting. Each panel that runs over the skirt has an additional layer of lace attached to the tulle for added detail. It is the same lace that was used underneath the panel on the bodice.
• Each tier slightly overlaps the one below it and this gives the skirt a beautiful soft and romantic feel. It also gives you a really pretty line as it widens out as it near the hem.
  
• When you move all of the layers softly move around you. It is very beautiful.
• The dress is fully lined in ivory chiffon and closes with a back hidden set zipper. It still has its original tags attached and was never worn.

• This dress is from the Fall 2012 Valentino collection
• At this time both Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli were acting Creative Directors.
• On the runway it is clearly a take off on look 51 and the included reference photo gives you an idea of how this spits on the body.
• This is the second time I have had this dress in the shop and the first time I had it, a girl who bought its twin let me know that the original retail on this dress was over $20,000.
• The base fabric of the dress is a fine silk tulle netting that has panels of lace laid over it that run in horizontal rows down the length of the dress.
• The collar is set wide and is trimmed with two layers of silk chiffon. The upper bodice and sleeves are made from a netting that has little dots of embroidery mixed with beads.
• This same beaded technique is used on the double ruffled hem that circles the lower skirt. The dress is meant to skim over you and widen out as it nears the hem.
• The back skirt falls slightly longer than the front and there is a bit of extra fabric at the back so you get a soft sweeping of fabric behind you.
• The body of the dress is completely covered with alternating layers of the lace mixed with tiny little rows of ivory iridescent sequins. These are all set horizontally and wrap around the entire dress. The top layer of the dress has a transparent quality to it and to make the dress wearable it is then lined in three layers of ivory silk chiffon. It is absolute beautiful.
• Fully lined in three layers of silk chiffon. It has an inner corset that zips to close and an outer hidden side zipper. Each cuff zips to close. It appears to have never been worn.
• There is no size type present so please go buy the measurements listed below.

This garment has been professionally cleaned, pressed and is odor free. Thoroughly checked over before shipping, it will be ready to wear upon arrival.

• The dress is from the Spring 2020 collection and its twin walk the runway for Look 76.
• It was made under the creative direction of Pierpaolo Piccioli. 
• This was one of the most heavily documented dresses of the collection and there is an outstanding number of references as it was shot and photoed everywhere. This dress was sold out and wait-listed worldwide. Very few were produced.
• Vogue said that the show felt like "a long gulp of fresh air and optimism centred on something known." They noted that "in technical terms Piccoli's aim for spring was casualizing the voluminous couture silhouettes he had established over the past few staggeringly well received seasons... The collection was joyful, touched on a myriad of occasions and lifted hearts." It ended with a standing ovation.
• I love the bright almost neon feeling orange that the dress has been done in. It is incredibly difficult to capture the actual colour in a photo and I think it is even better in person.
• The dress is made out of an almost parachute feeling fabric that holds its shape fantastically. This combined with the brilliant seaming and cut is what gives the dress its exuberant volume and shape.
• Both the front and back are deeply plunged and everything is kept perfectly in place on the body by the way that it is all cut and by taking into account all of the weight and fall of the fabric below. It is quite ingenious.
  
• Circling all the way around the arms from the top of the shoulder to the seam under the bust are the incredible sleeves that are made from the same fabric. The fabric has been folded over and onto itself to create a double layer. This is what gives them their volume and airy feel. I love that we have so many photos of this dress on so many different people so you can see how spectacular it all sits. They attach in just under the arm and after curving up and around the shoulder they attach down the back. It is almost like a stylized angel wing in the best possible sense of that idea.
• The waist has a generous cut and it is meant to feel more loose and easy. It is really a piece that is easy to fit and should fit a range of sizes. If you are smaller the waist is just going to drape down and off the lower back a touch.
• The cut and expanse of the skirt keeps everything in place so even though it has a plunge at the front and back it still feels safe to wear. I love the bare expanse of skin that shows at the back.
• The skirt is spectacular. It falls from underneath the seam of the bust in four tiers. Each tier gets progressively wider as it near the hem and the very lowest tier falls out and behind you for a dramatic sweep of fabric. The silk of each tier is gathered into the seam above and below it and this also helps to add to the volume. 
• The amount of fabric in the skirt and the lightness of the fabric is what lets it billow and move around you in the most spectacular way. And it has pockets.
• This is an absolutely stunning example of his time at the label and it is a very collectible piece.
• The front triangles are backed with another layer of the same fabric and the skirt is unlined. It closes with a hidden set side zipper.

• 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 very well made. This one caught my eye simply because of how gorgeous and sexy it is. It is a stunning dress with beautiful lines.
• The dress is made out of a black silk chiffon that is cut on the bias and flows over the body beautifully. The fabric choice keeps the dress very light in weight and gives it beautiful movement. 
• The bodice is comes down into a V at the front and the silk is gathered on an angle over to the side. A deep V is also set at the back for a bare expanse of skin to show. One side of the V at the back extends out and curves around the waist and is secured in at one side under the bow. The gathering and draping over the body feels very inspired by the bias cut gowns of the thirties and forties.
• The bow is the key design point on the dress and it is so special feeling. It is made out of a rounded piped fabric that holds its shape. It is completely covered in tiny silver sequins, beads and rhinestones for the perfect little bit of glitz.
• The skirt falls from under there and it is draped heavier on the side where the silk angles upwards. This creates more of a draped panel down the side that sits directly under the bow. The skirt has an extra panel of chiffon added at the front and the drape is set on the side under the bow so that it curves upwards. So when you move you get fantastic movement when you move.
• The dress is fully lined in a black silk and closes with a hidden set side zipper.

• The twin of this dress that was shown over a nude stretch top and walked the runway for Look 80 in the Fall 2016 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Pierpaolo Piccioli.
• It was also featured in an editorial for Marie Claire Spain that season.
• The entire dress is made from a pale nude tulle netting that has just a hint of a pink undertone to it. It is lined in a matching silk so that is so opaque enough to wear. That lining could be removed if you preferred a full transparent feel.
• Scattered over the tulle are silver sequins that each have a tiny clear bead topping the sequin. These catch the light from every angle.
• The dress is suspended from tiny net straps that curve up and over each shoulder. The front scoops across and the upper back is left bare and exposed.
• A ruffled panel of the netting is attached all the way around the neck line and as it curves towards the back it gets wider so that it drapes down the sides and just past the waist at the back. This adds a pretty feminine and airy feel to the dress.
• The waist is seamed to nip in and the skirt is full and easy over the hips. It is very wide and full by the time it reaches the hem. Under the top layer of netting are three additional netted layers. The layer in the middle of those three has a double hem and all of this built in under-skirting helps to hold the volume and give the skirt its structure and shape. A final opaque layer in silk sits against your skin.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching silk and closes with hidden set back zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
