@giambattistavalliparis couture Smart move. On day 1 of this digital haute couture week, “nature” is a recurring motif, as is the human desire to get out into it. It may be irrational exuberance on our parts, but it is exuberance which is better than its opposite, and after months of restrictions, this kind of pleasure seeking is hardly a surprise. The ephemeral format of the 20-minute fashion show all too often prevents any real audience appreciation of how clothes are made. When it’s haute couture on the level of Valli’s, the ability to walk around and linger over the skill and the exuberance, and the mastery of color and volumes, it makes the whole thing more amazing. Concentrating on filling the space with the best of the best of what he can achieve, saturating it all with the colors of bougainvillea, lemon gardens, roses, pinks, he’s produced something extraordinary—and all the more lovely for the fact that he’s decided to open up his world for all to see, if even for a few days. @fhcm #fashiongram #fashionaddict #fhcm #fw2021 #couture #hautecouture #vallicouture #valli #fashionblogger #stylegram #style #styleoftheday #styleinspiration
