I know its the latest trend to hate her but i dont get that?
She likes his clothes and i think she looks great in every dress of his she wore so whats the problem?And i saw an interview of his in wich he said,seeing her wear his clothes and support him was amazing.He also said that at first she bought his clothes and didnt even try to get them for free.And so he decided to send her the whole s/s collection.
And in this crazy celeb free world i find that fascinating but on other side i dont think she would wear any item from this collection,specially not the yellow dress? Maybe modified.

Review from Style.com
PARIS, March 2, 2007 – What do you get when you mix Rembrandt, Le Corbusier, and the Mexican film star Maria Felix? The new Fall collection by Giambattista Valli. From the painter (and perhaps from classic YSL too) came the black suits—longer through the jacket, fuller through the leg, and more office-ready than anything the designer has shown before. The bold shots of yellow and red, geometric prints, and the new stiffer architecture found in Valli's favorite trapeze and bell shapes were derived from the great architect. And from La Doņa, as she was called, he took the flourishes.
Valli's first love is a party dress. So Swarovski crystals studded the funnel necks of short frocks. Black-tipped white feathers were stitched together to create a showstopping weightless cape. And last season's masses of soft floral rosettes have become ribbon-candy ruffles—on one shift dress, they were horizontally arrayed to decorate the neckline; on another, they zipped up and down from neck to knee-length hem. From his new jewelry line, Valli showed large heart-shaped pendants with skulls encrusted on them.
All of this gave Jessica Biel and the Euro socialite cohort in the front row plenty to ooh and ahh over. What jazzes up the fashion types on the opposite side of the runway—aside from the obvious luxe of the fabrics and the fine construction—is how the cut-away-from-the-body silhouette seems both right for the season and completely of a piece with the exciting body of sophisticated work Valli is continuing to build

I'm a little surprised by the warm reception this collection has received. Critics should be blasting him for referrencing YSL so literally when his namesake label is still in the formative stage.
Brand identity is a curious thing. I think it's natural that people associate certain elements of style with a designer and can be very critical if the same design pop up elsewhere. Case in point: the ex-Marni designer at Chloe. People liked his stuff at Marni, but not so much when he changes labels.
