Spring 2002 Valentino by Mr. Valentino Runway Look 79 Strapless Red Dot Silk Chiffon Dress w Ruffled Tiers z-archive-lorisazzaro Fully lined in a blackThe twin of this dress walked the Spring 2002 runway as Look 79. It was made under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino. The dress was one of a group of seven presented near the end of the show. I think it was the best of that group and it is a wonderful example of Valentino's work for his main line during this time period. I love having the runway photos and video of the dress for reference so that you can see just how amazing it is
