• From the Spring 2020 collection and that was featured in the Spring Look Book for clients.
• Made under the creative direction of Pierpaolo Piccioli 
  
• It is incredibly beautiful and it would make an amazing wedding dress for the bride looking for a non-traditional choice or as an alternative dress in a more extended wedding celebration. And of course it could also be worn to any event.
• The original retail on this was just over $14,000 US because of the extensive hand applied sequins.
• It comes with its original inner ivory silk slip that allows it to be opaque enough to be worn.
• The outer dress is worn over that and is made from a double layer of a white netting that has that amazing sequin design applied over its surface.
• The neckline is scooped, and the dress falls in a shift shape over the body. The lower skirt flares out slightly following and the vertical designs done in sequins that circle around the hem emphasize the hem.
• The sleeves are long and end in sequin finished cuffs. They are cut to balloon out above the cuff and I love this little added detail.
• The sequins are extensive and have been applied over the entire dress. I have taken many close-up shots for you to see how beautiful it is. They mix a iridescent ivory sequins with gold sequins to form the pattern that you see. There are also tiny little muted gold seed beads that create part of the pattern, including the ribbon of the leafs. And the larger flowers have tiny pink and pale, lavender bead set in and among the design. It is incredible.
• Because so much of the dress has those sequins applied onto it, the dress catches the light perfectly from every angle, and every angle but you view the dress from is absolutely stunning.
• The inner slip has no closures and slips over the head to wear. The back top seam of the slip is finished with an elastic for an easy fit and added comfort.
• The outer dress slips over that and closes at the back with a hidden set zipper. Each cuff has four buttons to close.
• Tagged a modern Valentino 42 on both pieces and both have their proper Valentino tags.
• I seen one teeny tiny catch in the net near the zipper but it's extremely minor and just mentioned for accuracy.
• Excellent condition

• This dress is from the Fall 2012 Valentino collection
• At this time both Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli were acting Creative Directors. 
• It has the feel of Looks 25 & 48 from the runway with that deep plunge at the front that is really fantastic. 
• The Vogue review for this collection stated in part; "For Fall, the designers wove an enchanting, globe-trotting story through the sweetly feminine silhouettes they've established as their own over the last few ready-to-wear and couture seasons".
• It is made in one of Valentino's signature silk crepes that gives it its sleek sculpted feel.
• The dress is very sexy and shows off some skin but still feels very elegant and refined. The fabric has just a touch of a bias cut to it through the body so its very comfortable to wear.
• Wider straps curve up and over your shoulders and all the edges of the bodice are set in a soft curving scalloped pattern.
• The front plunges to almost the waist with a band of the same fabric sitting part way down to keep it perfectly in place. This creates just a subtle little key hole below the breast. The result is a very deep plunge but a very wearable one.
• The back is a V to leave most of your upper back bare.
• The skirt widens out as it nears the hem. A wide band of fabric circles all the way around the hem and the bottom edge is the same scallop as around the bodice.
  
• The bodice is fully lined in a black silk and the lower panel of the skirt is a double layer of the same fabric. The skirt between is unlined.
• It closes with a back hidden set zipper.
• Tagged a modern Valentino 40

• Under the creative direction of Pierpaolo Piccioli
• The Vogue review for this collection touched on Pierpaolos's inspiration for the show saying; "(he is) a man on an intuitive mission to place fashion on a positive plane. 'I feel that people are looking for emotion and dreams—but not distant dreams,' he said today before his ready-to-wear show was about to take to the runway. 'I want to create a community for Valentino. I mean something different from ‘lifestyle,’ which is about owning objects. It’s about people who share values.'"
• It was photoed for editorials and worn on carpets that year
• Made from a beautiful orange wool that is extremely soft to the touch. Dyed feathers to match the colour have been added over the entire coat for an beautiful tactile feel. This also adds incredible movement once on.
• It has an open cocoon type shape that should fit a variety of sizes. It is meant to feel slightly oversized.
• There is a panel of fabric along the inner back hem that has the words "wrap me, free me, see me" done in black beads
• Pockets along each hip

• The twin of this dress walked the runway in the Spring 2003 show for Look 64
• Under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino
• It was the only dress shown in this entire collection that season that was done in his signature Valentino red. So when you look through the collection photos it really stands out.
• The show was a huge success and Vogue especially loved the evening pieces; "For the evening review, it gets even better. Valentino's communiqués from his couture collection show up as delicate metallic-embroidered chiffons made into fragile capes, cardigans or dresses. And for the grand occasion, there's a full battalion of the designer's fabulous signature chiffon gowns." 
• Suspended from the shoulders by two tiny straps in the same red silk. The bodice is seamed just under the breasts and have minimal darting. 
  
• It skims over the waist and hips and then from there it falls to the floor in a beautiful column of the red silk crepe.
• The back of the dress is cut slightly longer so you have a tiny bit of a sweep behind you.
• Two panels of silk chiffon wrap around the waist area to add detail and shape the dress. The panels are attached all the way around you and then loop through openings at the front of the dress. The ties are cut extra long and fall to just above the hem at the front of the dress.
• The dress closes with a hidden set side zipper.
• The top panel of the bodice is lined in a red silk and the rest of the dress is unlined.
• Tagged a vintage Valentino 10.
• I see a touch of grubbiness here and there around the hem but otherwise excellent condition

The near twin of this dress walked the runway as Look 65 for the Fall 2018 Valentino season. The entire world was in love with Pierpaolo and this collection was raved about. Vogue opened their review saying "Something is going very right at Valentino. It would be hard to name another designer in the establishment echelons of fashion who is putting out a more inclusive, relatable, and unforced sense of modern elegance than Pierpaolo Piccioli. They continued saying "How to put it? Where so many other designers have sought to meet these fraught times with throwbacks to ’80s-power-woman shoulder-padded templates, Piccioli has found a new cadence of expression. It includes flowing lines, flowers, layers, scalloped edges, and a vibrant, sophisticated colour sense. For evening, there was a wealth of options to cover all occasions, according to the person a woman might be. It might mean flowing, completely covered-up gowns or ankle-length A-line tunics with slim trousers beneath... Piccioli handled both minimalism, in spare, dramatic shapes, and decorative embellishment in blown-up floral appliques and jacquard... It recognized dignity and delighted in amazing colour. Bravo, Piccioli. This was outstanding." The dress on the runway had a more bare front and it was the third last look of the collection. I am happy that I have the runway photos and a reference video for you because they show how beautiful it is once on the body and moving. It was also worn on the red carpets and in editorials that season. It is one of the best from a show filled with outstanding dresses.

The halter of the dress is made from a deep forest green velvet and then the skirt is a slightly-heavier-in-weight silk brocade that has a beautiful floral pattern worked over its entire surface. An exuberant, oversized floral pattern covers the entire skirt. The black portions that you see are a finely ribbed velvet that has an almost ultra fine ribbed corduroy finish to it. You can feel the added texture of the black parts of the print and it makes the print that much better. The dresses that went to the shops had tops that had more fabric in them then the runway and sample pieces that were loaned out for the red carpets and editorials. It makes the dress much more wearable and I like the balance more between the top and skirt. The top is made from two simple triangles in a deep green velvet. Each has a vertical dart up the front centre to add a touch of shape. They extend out from the waist into two long straps at the top that curve behind your neck, cross over themselves at the back, and then button and snap into place on either side of the little bit of velvet that curves around the sides and into the low back. The halter front and tiny straps leave your sides and your entire back bare. It is the perfect balance between the dress feeling romantic and being very sexy. The skirt is remarkable. It is set in around the waist in a series of tiny gathers and there is an internal stiffening around the waist to create that fullness of the skirt coming up, out and over the hips that you see. The fabric choice helps to hold the shape and the fullness. There is weight to it, but it doesn't feel too heavy to move in once on. As good as it looks here it only really comes to life when the dress is on and you are moving. The back of the dress has extra fullness built in and it is cut a touch longer so you get this beautiful sweeping feel behind you that just adds to the overall glamorous feel of the dress.  It is incredibly beautiful . And it has pockets. Excellent condition with a minor note below.

The halter is backed with silk and the skirt is unlined. The straps button into place and it closes with a low hidden set back zipper at the waist. Ribbon edged finished inner hems. Some minor grubbiness here and there on the hem and perhaps the tiniest snag here and there on the skirt. Presents pristine once on.

Bust: has no fixed side seams. Each halter covers to approx 8.5"
Waist: 12.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Bodice: Approx 14" from top of neck to waist band and the length of the straps could be adjusted as needed by moving the buttons
Total length: 61" from neck to front hem, 62" to the back hem
