Italian luxury fashion house Valentino will present its newest Haute Couture collection in Venice.
Titled 'Valentino Des Ateliers' the Fall-Winter 2021-2022 show will take place in the City of Canals at The Gaggiandre: two magnificent shipyards with a large internal dock, built between 1568 and 1573 attributed to Italian sculptor and architect Jacopo Sansovino. The storied brand chose the place due to its historical significance as it was the largest production center in Venice during the pre-industrial era.
To mark the occassion Valentino is sponsoring the 49th International Theatre Festival, Biennale Teatro 2021, which lasts from the 2nd to the 11th of July 2021.
'One the most challenging aspects of my work during these unprecedented times was the reprogramming of some of my recurrent thoughts, which of course included the concept and the place for my couture shows. The current travel with your fantasy mode we are in pushed me to dream harder and bigger,' explained Pierpaolo Piccioli.
'A homage to the city of Venice and to its cultural panorama, the city that for the Creative Director spontaneously generates vibrations on art, theatre, music, architecture, cinema, and everything that has to do with creativity. A natural decision for Pierpaolo Piccioli that envisions his creations in an iconic frame, La Biennale di Venezia at the Gaggiandre of the Arsenale,' said the House of Valentino.
The Valentino Des Ateliers Haute Couture Collection will be live streamed worldwide on July 15 at 7:30 pm.
