Couture Valentino

After 45 years of inventing and evolving haute couture, uber-designer Valentino has chunked the deuces (=said goodbye!) to the fashion world. Fortunately, he has left us with some stunning material from his 2008 Spring line. These pieces could easily cross over into the wedding sector--especially for the young, hip, ultra-modern, ultra-haute, daring bride.

Your dress will certainly be the talk of the wedding for months to come! There are even a few pieces that could suit the bride on her second run down the aisle (minus that gargantuan hat, of course).


If you dare to wear these gowns during your nuptials, please, please, please do not sign up for a Trash The Dress session! Vintage Valentino will always be hot and you'll be holding on to an exquisite piece of history.

Who are your favorite designers, wedding or ortherwise? Let me know and I will pick one or two or four to blog about in the future.

P.S. Love, love love that overcoat in the BUTTERCUP color! If you will remember my mention of that hot color for 2008 in earlier posts. . . :-)
