Giambattista Valli

Not if, but when the day comes where I am invited to a red carpet event, Giambattista Valli will be one of my top choices for a gown. Already a favorite amongst many of Hollywood's elite including Emma Stone (1) (2), Rihanna, Lupita Nyong'o (1) (2),  Lauren Santo Domingo (1) (2) (3) (4), Amal Clooney (1) (2) (3) (4) (5), Blake Lively, Allison Williams (1) (2) and others, his creations are truly magnificent. With a classic and timeless silhouette, he favorites a flair for the dramatic. The result? An elegant, but equally breathtaking masterpiece. With select showrooms, his clothes are also available via trunk shows at some of the top fashion retailers including Moda Operandi
His collections come at quite a pretty penny with ready-to-wear items priced around $2,500 - with that high of a price tag, it makes sense Amal Clooney is one of the only celebrities seen out-and-about in his designs on a regular basis! 
Following his Instagram is so enjoyable and I'd definitely recommend the account if you're looking for an inspirational, high fashion addition to your photo feed. As sampled below, the profile features many of his haute couture gowns, as well as celebrity/red carpet spottings, the accessories and ready-to-wear collection, and fashion magazine placements of the designer's collection. 
Enjoy!

ESME VIE


 Esme Vie is a new fashion brand available at luxury retailers like Harrods and Moda Operandi, among others. The clothing line draws inspiration from the 1950s and 1960s, reviving the classic timelessness associated with the style icons of that time period (Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Kennedy). Their "beauty made to wear" designs evoke simplicity, femininity, and classiness. Adding playful details like floral arrangements and fur collars to the impeccably tailored and luxurious fabrics, Esme Vie holds a unique place in the haute couture market. 
The clothes are absolutely beautiful and I would love to own a number of items in the collection! I can't even fathom the price-point (the line holds trunk show-only sales with its luxury retailers partners at the launch of new seasons), but I am certain the clothes cost an arm & a leg! I know I would LOVE to wear the pieces, but in the meantime looking at their Instagram account will have to suffice...
Toodles!
