For Valentino Black Tie, Pierpaolo Piccioli envisions the tie as a powerful tool, imbuing it with aesthetic freedom and redefining its role as part of a prescriptive dress code.​
On each look from the Maison’s new collection, the tie is envisioned in novel ways, expressing an irreverent and inclusive interpretation of historic rules.
A romantic, decontextualized accessory becomes a recurring theme on every look.​
For his latest collection, Pierpaolo Piccioli takes the tie – that traditional, staid symbol of restriction – and rebuilds it as a tool for inclusivity and freedom, rendered in endless permutations.
The tie is a symbol, an obsessive motif completely re-signified.
Untied, unfettered, slipping between the language of clothing.
Discover the full collection, revealed this evening at Paris’s Hôtel Salomon de Rothschild.​
