Valentino Couture A/W 09

Couture is one of the best parts of fashion I reckon. A chance for designers to really show off their skills and produce something absolutely stunning. The Valentino collection caught my eye for its fairytale dark glamour, the beautiful ruffled detailing which was on the right side of feminine and some amazing shoes. It featured a mix of cocktail dresses and full length gowns for the modern day gothic cinderella who gets to stay out all night! I adore the masks which add intrigue and drama to the designs and those shoes!! Enough said. You can see more of the collection here.
