Maison Valentino Reveals Spring/Summer 2024 Haute Couture Collection

At 3:30 AM today, the Maison Valentino's Spring/Summer 2024 Haute Couture collection, "Valentino Le Salon," was showcased at the couture salon located in Place Vendôme, Paris.

For Pierpaolo Piccioli, Creative Director of the Italian luxury haute couture brand Maison Valentino, the "Salon" signifies a return and a departure, symbolizing respect for tradition while offering new propositions. This reflects the intrinsic values of haute couture along with contemporary values and needs.

The Spring/Summer 2024 Haute Couture collection aims to deeply root itself in today's lifestyle.

What appears to be a radical reflection of today's world is in fact a return to the original intent and reality-based origins of couture. Authentic dressing represents the timeless essence of haute couture.

Through textiles and technology, fabrics portray unique natural elements like leather, feathers, and fur, while handcrafted silk organza rolls and sequins recreate the spirit of nature through human creativity.

Jewelry created by endlessly twisting goldenribbons that wrap around the body defies gravity, and the intermingled colors create geometric and varied forms, culminating in unique hues.

Technology creates a new reality, and fabrics become magically lighter and materially transformed.

Haute couture is inherently paradoxical. Simplicity is complex, and spontaneity is the result of carefully considered gestures.

Through ongoing partnership with the French non-profit organization La Réserve des Arts, Maison Valentino plans to continue its sustainable journey by reusing fashion show setups and materials, fostering a cycle of creativity and resourcefulness.

The salon is not just a stage, but a cultural environment that cherishes craftsmanship and celebrates acts of creation. It is a place where beauty is witnessed and humanity is experienced, positioning itself at the heart of haute couture.
