Selfridges Says: Valentino Garavani was first struck by the fashion fever on a trip to watch the opera Carmen as a child, bewitched by the show’s gilded gowns and floral arches. So, it’s no surprise the Roman house’s sumptuous collections have a certain theatricality that crescendos like an elaborate composition. Plucked from its latest offering, this midi skirt is cut from swathes of whisper-weight linen and fashioned to a mid-rise waist, cascading in soft pleats to a flared hem for a note of grandeur.
Garavani is better known by his mononym, Valentino. From the signature Rockstud leather shoes to richly embellished dresses, knitwear, tailoring and separates, Valentino Garavani pieces are characterised by a bold and playful use of colour and pattern, with a through line of glamour and luxury.
