Valentino Garavani was already one of the most talented couturiers in the Parisian fashion scene when he composed a collection of 12 dresses for Jackie Kennedy. 12 pieces, made in white, as the future Jackie O. had just ordered her wedding dress. When the ex-First Lady entered the chapel in October 1968, her short ivory lace dress became a global emblem of style. This translated into success for the couturier as well, who decided&nbsp;one year later&nbsp;to dedicate an entire collection to this anti-color, an attribute of distinction.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">\u201cFor me, white is a color. It\u2019s the lightness of summer, purity,\u201d expresses Valentino Garavani. The inspiration for his \u2018White\u2019 collection presented in Florence thus came from Jackie Onassis Kennedy, his friend, considered to be the ideal woman: elegant and extremely sophisticated. \u201cShe inspired me, supported me during difficult times. With her style, she was able to get people talking about me by getting them to talk about her.\u201d But through his muse, Valentino joined an adoration for his craft, his passion, his work. Garavani called the White collection \u201cmy declaration of love for couture.\u201d This says it all.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">White is indeed a challenging color, just like the art of couture. White doesn\u2019t leave any room for error- the smallest imperfection becomes a catastrophe. But white is also a dream. It\u2019s the memory of \u201can old box of white lace given by the Countess Asti to one of my aunts. It was ravishing,\u201d tells Valentino. His great discipline combines with the use of noble, light, and precious materials: organza, embroidered organdy, tulle, georgette embroidered with stars\u2026 In September 1968,&nbsp;<i>Vogue&nbsp;<\/i>would write: \u201cAll of Europe is talking about Valentino\u2019s white. The purity, the distinction of these whites that are so crisp, so white, so refined, these soft creamy whites, shown together white on white. All of this is a triumph for this 35 year old couturier who, by unleashing so much beauty, romance, and perfection, has become the idol of youth, a new symbol of contemporary luxury\u2026\u201d Fifty years later, white is definitively one of the favorite signatures of a brand whose creations are ever more refined.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">The Valentino style favors the contrasts between black and white, offering elegant and fluid cuts.&nbsp;Pierpaolo Piccioli, however, offers other subtle nuances such as the legendary <a href=\"http:\/\/icon-vrai.loc\/fr\/mode-et-accessoires\/haute-couture\/le-rouge-valentino\">red<\/a>.
