Valentino Love

The title sounds like this post should be about some romantic holiday somewhere around February.

It's not! 

I stumbled upon these lovely Valentino designs from the fall 2011 Couture collection.

Just thought I would share.

I'm impressed with the modest silhouettes although if you look at the entire collection here you can see they need to do a major check on fabric density or do some lining. 

My all time favorite! I love the buttons and high waist.
Hmm...could I recreate that?

Lovely and flowing are they not. 

Here are the masterminds behind the creation.

 Pier Paolo Piccioli and Maria Grazia Chiuri

Have a splendid day!
