One of the most beautiful moments during Paris Fashion Week was my fitting at the Maison Valentino Headquarters. It was a dream coming true, and that moment I walked into this beautiful room filled with all the Valentino pieces I’ve ever dreamed off was insane. Obviously there were too many options, and it felt quite overwhelming… “where do I start?” crossed my mind a hundred times, at least! I decided to start with choosing a color and take it from there…
I love green, and my eye fell on this cute mini-dress from their Pre-Fall 15 collection. It has a little bit of a 60s vibe, which as you know, I love. My pick got only more confirmed when I saw the ankle boots, from their Haute Couture collection. It’s not something that happens to me on daily, so of course, I was dying to wear this pair of boots, which did go so perfectly well with the little green dress. Then the only thing I needed to finish it off was a bag to go with it… The rock stud collection never fails on this part.
Looking back at these photos I can only say that I couldn’t have picked a better outfit, though, I must admit, I might need another chance so that I can wear one of their beautiful embroider gowns. Until then, thanks to the great team at Valentino for making this all happen!
Later today I will share all the images I’ve made during their A/W15 runway show on my Facebook page, so make sure to keep an eye on it!
