Giambattista Valli Couture Spring 2013

Giambattista Valli turned a fresh eye to modernist design with his Spring 2013 Couture collection. His fourth couture outing — staged at the Italian Embassy in Paris — featured restrained animal prints, wasp-waisted dresses and coats, and floral embellishments that were actually created from feathers.

Our full review will be posted shortly. In the meantime, a first look at the collection here in the gallery.
