DESIGNER DOUBLES : Valentino for the Valentina






The love bug has officially swept across the high street, infatuated with the Valentino touch.  The it label adored by fashionistas across the globe, this designer brand has redefined romanticism, as demonstrated in the 2013 Spring collection. Reinforcing the classic beauty of the feminine shape with a subtle touch of androgony and structure, Valentino brings Ms Valentina into the 21st Century, with high street brands following suit.


The true definition of finesse, Valentino continued their legacy of feminine romance within their 2013 Spring collection, exhibiting faultless craftsmanship and precision within each look. Exuberating a sense of infinite beauty, the haute couture range rejoiced Romanticism in conjunction with the  season of love, with intricate embroidery, and lace detail to give attention to the feminine silhouette, whilst maintaining an austere simplicity.

The fashion guru has truly reinvented the definition of love with a modern twist, and the high street have followed suit in true admiration. Still reinforcing nude and white palette, Valentino focuses on the radiance of the Valentino women, with midi length dresses, and faultless templates. The High Street’s Spring Collection range has clearly grasped inspiration by the Valentino’s monastic, yet romantic collection, with lace, sheer, and nude colours becoming a recurring fashion trend in stores.  Lipsy have done a solid enactment of the Valentino flair by not swaying away from his trustee palette of classic nudes and whites to add emphasis on the natural hourglass shape, subtlety coveted with sheer, and lace to complement the natural subtle seductiveness of a woman. Reminiscent of the Renaissance Age, the High Street brand injects some needed modernization by using the bodycon dress; the new LBD in town!

Inevitably less intricate and embellished rendition of the 2013 Houte Couture Collection, Lipsy in particular seemed to grasp Valentino’s sense of feminine radiance, by injecting classic statement pieces to draw attention to the natural feminine curve, which neither needs nor requires embellishment for assistance. 

The Valentino touch trickles down into daywear and accessories, with Topshop embodying the Baroque trend, giving every woman the chance to strut down the street with the poise of a fierce fashionista! Topshop replicates the divinely studded nude shoe, as seen on fashion icon Alexa Chung, emitting the Valentino charm a woman yearns for.

The High Street rocks the Valentino legacy in true style, at a snip of the price. The spring pieces are a true embodiment of the classic female hourglass shape, showcased with tailored yet simplistic nude dresses, and sheer panelled garments to add a sensual touch .A feminine touch for the Valentines season. Whether or not a fan of the Valentine season, embrace your inner Ms Valentina at a budget price!
