eye candy--not vintage

[claireshaeffer]

I went to SF to shop at Britex this week. Here are a couple of Valentino designs in their window.

All of the circles were sewn in, not appliqued. The coat was almost $8000.
I thought that was quite reasonable considering the labor involved. There are more images on the Valentino website.

Was it leather?

Melanie, it was silk/wool.

What great eye candy, Claire! I thought it was leather or vinyl as well, especially from the second pic.

The site committee has been using Valentino for fall Vintage inspiration and especially that coat, there are a few versions of that print too!
The dress is gorgeous!!

This is not a print. The circles are sewn in.

Sorry Claire, wrong choice of wording!!

Gorgeous - love the skirt with the red top and knee-high boots!
