Valentino pre-summer 2013- Vogue


Valentino also used bright pastel colours in his collection, making them feminine by mixing them with florals and lace, making them classic and elegant, inspired by the 1920's, but made more modern by using vibrant pastels instead of muted ones. The lace and florals link with the romantic style of the garment, making it really girly. The high necklines where also typical in the 20's to cover up the body- mainly the bust, which is how women of that era used to dress (covering their modesty) as most people where religious and it was 'the done thing'.
I love the matching pastel clutch bags that match the corresponding outfits- using the same colour- bringing out the colour in the garment that has been muted by the overlay of white lace (this creates a very classic garment)
