Valentino fans rejoice! Arguably, Spring 2013's Haute Couture collection marked the first time that Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccoli have successfully melded their penchant for 19th century-inspired designs (this season featured coronation robes, making for a particularly memorable all-white look) and vintage fabrics with Valentino's signature love of glamour.
Included in this seasons lineup of intricately embroidered gowns and dresses were a variety of stunning pieces done in the house's signature red. Whether tailored slim or more billowing, most looks emphasized the waist and, in a nod to the designers' restraint, the collection mixed heavily embroidered looks with minimalist ones that simply focused on drape for their memorable impact.
