Haute couture seen not only as the “Excellence” of dressmaking. But also about culture, gestures and rituals, seen as an experiment with the silhouette, the shape and cuts that the creations play in the surrounding space.

Mousseline  and chiffons are skilfully draped, tulle is multi-layred in cascades of ruffies that create extra ordinary shapes and faille and taffetas are cut to, by themselves, give life to remarkable bows.

Fabric sculptures are created with the cut of a scissor with the aim to spread and share beauty.

Colors include red like the lipstick marks often found on empty cups on tables in Parisian cafes, black like the notorious "Petit robe Noir" • pink like the wild roses growing in the city’s gardens and ivories like the moulures that adorn the windows and Parisian ceilings.
The collection is presented in the form of a video and images that, alongside the creations, shows fragments of Paris and its nature seen through the eyes and the camera of Giambattista Valli himself.
