So like Un-Pierpaolo Piccioli, Valentino’s Haute Couture SS21 Collection is unlike anything we’ve seen from the designer

^{From Italian Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccioli, we’re used to seeing brighter floral greens, yolks and hot pinks – along with feathers, lots of feathers for his Valentino collections. He was campaigning on the path of Hedi Slimane, who is known to have the same view on all runway shows. But today, Piccioli fashion connoisseurs threw a curved ball with the Spring-Summer 2021 Haute Couture Collection at Home. Set in a commanding position, at Galleria Collona in Rome, the Sala Grande Piccioli unfolds several appearances and gives us a breath of fresh air, letting us know that his paintings are unpredictable.}

^{With creams, whites and beakers we were shaken to warm summer tones. It is an adult version of your youngest years. It’s as if one enters their thirties and looks back on the last decade of their lives and realizes that their wardrobe also needs a look. adult with slight margin. This is what Piccioli did with this collection. It is a more mature look with special dresses and knitwear, giving a positive look to the future of something out of this world. To top off the looks, models complimented the runway with metabolic platform shoes.}

^{And then Piccioli hit us with another curveball, he introduced the look of Haute Couture for men. If 2020 taught us anything it looks like almost anything can happen. Will there be Haute Couture men’s shows in the future? Time will tell but it has attracted the idea of ​​special pants, knitwear sweaters, trenches, and bold coats for men.}

^{Playing with materials, making unique shoes, changing cuts, bluffing style lines, and playing with shapes Piccioli showed us another side in his design style. If this collection and his last finished collection SS21 taught us anything, it is that Pierpaolo Piccioli is his own designer and we should not be too comfortable where he will take us in future collections .}
