The splendor of handmade craftsmanship took center stage in Paris during Haute Couture Week, as celebrities and fashion elites gathered to witness the convergence of art, fashion, and beauty. That is what the Spring Summer 2024 couture collections are all about.

Valentino’s much-anticipated show “Le Salon” dazzled celebrities, including Florence Pugh, Jennifer Lopez and Kylie Jenner with her daughter, adorably matching in black feathery outfits. 

Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccioli further cements his reputation as a creator of dreams, encouraging onlookers to escape into his visionary realm of haute couture. Piccioli’s collection conveyed a message of luxury that was less about material extravagance and more about the dedication to intricate artistry. 

“It is a luxury in an industrialized world,” said Piccioli, emphasizing the importance of a slow, deliberate creation process that promotes research, aesthetics, and innovation. The collection, crafted exclusively at the brand’s Piazza Mignanelli headquarters in Rome, featured pieces adorned with capes of three-dimensional flowers, exotic skins simulated in fabrics, and gravity-defying gold ribbons, demonstrating the limitless possibilities of sartorial imagination.
