Valentino’s sky-blue silk crepe de Chine dress is a key runway piece from the Victoriana-inflected AW17 collection. The aura of romance is expressed via characteristically exquisite workmanship: note the delicate black bead embellishments and tulle inserts that adorn it from the high neck right through to the pleated hem. As with framing a fine painting simple is best when it comes to accessorising such an artful piece.
