👗Who Wore it Better: Valentino Edition

Doing a proper #WWIB edition on a designer so loved and worn such as Valentino is nearly a mission impossile: everytime I thought I was done and that no celeb was going to wear the same dressa s another one, they popped out in dozens!

So I had to make a choice and, even so, I ended up with lots of comparisons…From Oscar-winning actresses to the new generation of web influencers and fashion bloggers, from Hollywood to Paris, here’s a list that shows how worldwide and appreciated Valentino is.

Spanish influencer Gala Gonzalez was one of the guest at the Valentino at Hotel Costes event, late last September. She showed off this Valentino Resort 2018 muticoloured dress and matched it with black studded riders boots and a matching studded bright green bag.

Mandy Moore attended the Valentino x InStyle Cocktail Party wearing the same patterned dress as  Gala. She opted for a softer look and completed the outfit with two-tone sandals and an updo hairstyle.

Margaret Qualley: The young starlet was at the ‘Novitate’ premiere dressed in a Valentino Fall 2017 gown. This ornate look translated a bit heavily for me, but it’s intriguing to watch Margaret continue to boldly experiment with her style September 10, 2017
