Precisely, in a new collection from the prestigious house of Valentino autumn-winter 2013-2014 something was felt spiritualizing, religious and highly artistic. In these surprising malekhanky dresses decorated with white cuffs and collars, magnificent capes cloaks, the malekhanky clutches reminding small volumes of books, but, first, in these stable and humble expressions of persons of models with which they one for another slowly appeared on a podium. Founders of new images so characterized the creations: «We aspired to catch and embody the real lady during more intimate moment, to reflect all her grace and tranquillity». Also designers of the house explained that works of known Dutch painters – Peter Brueghel and Jan Vermeer, seen by them at an exhibition in Rome became a source of their creative inspiration at present.
As to the Valentino collection, it became own sort fashionable dedication to the elegant ladies’ skirts presented in all richness of length and styles. Short and above a knee, in a floor or lengths of a mussel – not very well what of them it was urged to reflect, most likely, character and history of the heroine. Display was opened by a little monastic dresses – mini with the collars reminding of dresses of attendants of Calvinist church. Soon to them smart suits and a coat of blinding snow-white color came to change, also more reserved cobalt and dark. But there were in this infinite train of tranquillity and a pacification, vobshchy, and picturesque moments: dresses in a floret, as if descended from pictures of the Dutch painters or decorated with an interesting dark blue-white pattern, in particular ordinary for known Delft porcelain.
And still, looking at a collection, involuntarily emerged in the head and a little sobering moments which hinted us at inexpressible similarity of images of Valentino and that on court brand C of line not very long ago presented to prestigious public. Many prestigious critics on the completion of display stated confidence that designer Phebe Faylo and the creative Valentino team at all were crossed by a case at present in own creative vdokhnoveniye and results. Who knows, maybe, it and so, but it already absolutely other and not so prestigious history.
