From the edgier pieces like the leather corseted tops and moto jacket, to the softer layered dresses, peasant skirts and frilly mini skirts the garments in Valentino’s Red Spring 2016 line mingle nicely in a hard meets soft downtown girl duality.
Enchanting, sexy and uber feminine Valentino’s Red line is a celebration of youth while unabashedly embracing the female form. And the collection for Spring 2016 is a playful expression of this girlie exuberance with sophisticated touches of quite elegance. Bows, tulle, satin, leather and lace used throughout the collection ground it in a textural landscape of tactile romance while delicate touches of embroidery and eyelet details lend an air of bohemian free spiritedness. From the edgier pieces like the leather corseted tops and moto jacket, to the softer layered dresses, peasant skirts and frilly mini skirts the garments in Valentino’s Red Spring 2016 line mingle nicely in a hard meets soft downtown girl duality. Saturated blacks, creamy whites, dusty beiges, dreamy pastels of peach, sea foam, lavender and pale yellow are broken up with the occasion pop of hot pink or ruby red. These pops of color can be found in the over-sized ribbon belts, the embroidered bird details and the unexpected feather chokers. Add retro cut micro shorts, ankle grazing skirts and dresses in flowing feminine cuts, tea length party frocks, cap sleeves, and plenty of florals and dotted swiss muslin and you have one brilliantly creative and oh so sexy collection.

Valentino create the most whimsical and romantic pieces. Have to say I’m taken aback with the styling and pairing of sneakers. Never thought I’d see that.

Stunning and very girly fashion love it. Have a awesome weekend.
Ohh, this collection is so sweet, feminine and just downright doll like! It’s probably a little young for me but it doesn’t mean I can’t admire it through the screen.
