Front Row @ Valentino Fall 2023 Haute Couture

Pierpaolo Piccioli presented his Valentino Fall 2023 Haute Couture collection at the Château de Chantilly in front of a packed front row on Wednesday (July 5) during Paris Fashion Week.

Florence Pugh, who is the current face of the brand, wore a diaphanous Valentino dress from Le Club Couture Spring Summer 2023 collection.

This look instantly reminded me of her appearance in the front row of Valentino’s Fall 2022 Haute Couture show, because much like that time, she opted to wear a dress which was sheer.

This didn’t have the same charm for me.

While filming ‘We Live In Time,’ Florence continues to rock this buzz cut which was given its debut at the 2023 Met Gala.

The last time Naomi Ackie stepped onto the red carpet in Valentino, I wasn’t so enamoured with the look.

But she looked both sexy and powerful in this Valentino Fall 2023 look from the Black Tie collection.

Speaking of Naomi Ackie’s previous Valentino look, Balqees Fathi opted to repeat the Valentino Fall 2023 cold-shoulder dress.

I love how Raye managed to find a look from the Valentino Fall 2023 collection which was oozing that retro vibe we associate with her style.

Nicole Ari Parker’s Valentino Fall 2023 ensemble didn’t need to look so bad.

The sloppiness of the shirt killed this look for me, which was styled with Valentino Garavani shoes, and a mini Valentino Garavani Rockstud bag.

Saint JHN, who continues his love affair of fashion weeks, perhaps should’ve invoked the “remove one item rule” with this Valentino feathered coat from the Fall 2023 collection.

Clotilde Courau, who wore a Valentino Pre-Fall 2023 dress, was front row with her daughter, Vittoria di Savoia, who was dressed in a look from the Fall 2023 collection.

What do they share apart from great genetics? A love of those Valentino Garavani Tango platform shoes of course.
