Alessandro Michele's Valentino Couture Inspired by Eco

News summary

Alessandro Michele debuted his first haute couture collection for Valentino, titled 'Vertigineux', during Paris Couture Week, inspired by Umberto Eco's 'The Infinity of Lists' to manage the complexity of creating 48 unique ensembles. Emphasizing theatrical and historical elements, Michele's designs featured Tudor-style pyramid dresses and 18th-century pannier skirts, presented in a dramatic theater-like setting. Known for his avant-garde style from Gucci, Michele aimed to create a dialogue between his vision and Valentino's heritage, drawing on influences like Italian cinema from the golden age. The collection was described as a 'poetics of the list', aiming to confine chaos within a meaningful framework, transcending into an aesthetic narrative. Michele's work was characterized as both artistic expression and meticulous craft, likened to a meditative experience. Despite the collection's fantastical nature, Michele hopes it offers strength and inspiration during challenging times.
