In case you haven’t heard, Valentino retired after designing his last line Spring 2008 RTW. New at the helm with big shoes to fill is Italian designer Alessandra Facchinetti. Valentino was known for his use of colors and bows. Facchinetti adopted Valentino’s use of bows and added a few ruffles to boot. Otherwise, I didn’t recognize the usual Valentino design flair. I thought the Fall 2008 RTW fashion line was a little dull with all the muted beige suits and black cocktail dresses. The jackets and suits are the best products of Facchinetti’s vision in my opinion. What do you think? At least the models appear to be having a grand ‘ld time backstage..wonder how much Moet & Chandon was poured??!
