VALENTINO
For the “Valentino Black Tie” Fall / Winter 2023 collection, the Italian Maison challenges the ultimate sartorial convention, the black tie—reinterpreting it in countless iterations to dismantle its rigid connotations of masculine power. Together with its trusty white collar, the skinny black ValenTie morphs into flirty black minis, appears natural under oversized striped knits and luxe outerwear, contrasts coolly with sublime gowns, and is right at home with variations on classic shirting—from ultra-cropped (paired with equally cropped shorts and minis) to billowing and beaded. In a palette of black and white punctuated by pops of carnelian red and ethereal pale pink, both the tie and the “black-tie” dress code become a symbol of aesthetic freedom and punk—and, rendered with the Maison’s Couture excellence, is reimagined with new, liberating life and a hint of edge for modern day.
