- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
- HUGE NEWS at Valentino, Pierpaolo Piccioli is out and Alessandro Michele is in but what does this mean for Valentino in 2024? What can we expect? I try to break down the main areas of Valentino that Michele will have to navigate and make his own - from refreshing the Valentino bags, to designing couture and (obviously) embracing the codes and heritage of the Valentino house and putting his own spin on them...ENJOY!

“Same language, different font”, just Ms. Cassie being brilliant.
😭💖💖
I've never thought of Valentino as being quiet luxury because of the emphasis they put on studs. At the price point luxury brands are at right now, people want to be impressed, and Alessandro may very well rise to the occasion. Maybe the ready to wear will become exciting and wearable due to Valentino's couture history?
Yesss I hope so!! 💖💖
Being robbed while on vacation or traveling is painful enough, being robbed with an authentic bag is even worse, I agree with your point about buying fakes from *condup* for personal safety reasons
When made with Chinese leather you never know where it comes from or what the leather is made of *condup*
I love the rockstuds so much! I feel amazing whenever I wear them and am still collecting different styles of it! It feeds my rocker chic edgy style!
😍💖💖💖
Me too!😍 I love my rockstud sandals and I would love to add the pumps to my collection!🤩
Same!! I have so many pairs of rockstud shoes, I’ll never stop wearing them
I *just* purchased my first rockstud bag for my birthday last week. After owning Chanel, LV and Prada I wanted something a little edgier.
Happy Wednesday Everyone! ❤
Happy Wednesday to you! 💖💖
Alessandro going to Valentino is going to be a game changer. I'm looking forward to a fabulous and funky Valentino in the coming years. Yes, he'll have to deal with the "quiet luxury" trend, but I think he's going to do some amazing things at Valentino. I hope he shakes the fashion world up, as right now, it needs it.
I totally agree with you. I think he has an extraordinary understanding of what can appeal to the luxury fashion buying public - from pieces with a classic, archival bent to the streetwear-style collaborations with Disney and Adidas. I love his love of colour, pattern and unexpected combinations in clothing and accessories. Cassie used the word ‘opulent’ in this video - and that’s how I’ve always seen Valentino clothing - especially their couture. I’m hoping Alessandro expands on that with the brand.
I’m so tired of the norm-core trend across so many labels at the moment, disguised as or pretending to be ‘quiet luxury’. I find it lazy and unimaginative. Bring back opulence, drama and great design in clothing. There’s been so little of it in recent times.
Accessories and every day ready to wear are the bread and butter of luxury houses and I believe appointing A.M is a definite business move to shake up Valentino's lines so they too have those two areas in the fore front. They'll want those signature iconic bags just like he created for Gucci. Ready to wear too will be a major change (think current Miu Miu or how Celine was and YSL is now) so people will want that cool Valentino shirt, cool girl jean, belt, sunglasses etc. That's what A.M will be tasked to create for Valentino for sure. A.M. was brilliant at that for Gucci PLUS he has the experience to cover the rest so I think it's that diversity or BREADTH that got him the role. This could all go tits up of course but let's see!
Yessss!! I have high hopes! 🤞🏽💖
Valentino is the only brand that has made me tear up during a runway show. The live music was beautiful. I think this is the perfect appointment and I genuinely can not wait.
Ditto.
*whispering* “I don’t know my flowers”. I’m not much better, Cassie 😂😂😂
He did benefit from the lockdown 'treat' buying that did happen for Gucci. Loafers at 400-500 were achievable for most WFH professionals who overnight saved 4-5k on commuting costs. However, Gucci has gone a bit crazy with pricing. 750?? You might as well wait for a pair in Loro Piana to come back into stock.
So what will be really interesting is to see how he is going to innovate the rock stud. Will we see a new quintessential Italian icon? A piece inspired by Valentino's cultural Lombardy roots?
Yes definitely, but he was creating stellar growth even before lockdown 2017/2018. I’m hoping to see something cool with the rockstud too! 🤞🏽💖
Very true, but the pricing and designs were very accessible for the professional worker. You didn't get shamed for dropping £350-400 on a pair of shoes or under £1k for a decent bag. So in a tough market, we will really find out how great he is and if this could lead to his own house. @@CassieThorpe
I expect some wild couture shows in the future 👀
😏😏😏
Love your necklace!
So much research done for this video! Super job Cassie!
Good job Cassie! You peaked my interest!!!! Now you made me interested!
I’m very excited to see how A.M. will take Valentino from predicable to innovative and breath of fresh air!!
You and me both!🙌🏽
I am currently eyeing a bag from Valentino ☺️ this video is very informative! ❤
One thing I enjoy about your analysis is how you put your economics background to back it up. It affirms that nothing you learn in life is ever a waste 🤞🏼.’
Very very happy for this! Even more excited to see Michele doing couture!
I understand your point of view as Im also not a big consumer of the brand but always respect it so lets see how it goes❤
Cassie I agree with you. Alessandro Michele will do well at Valentino and I'm excited for his first collection.
Can’t even concentrate because of your beautiful V Westwood pearls dangling about. Gorgeous! I gifted the single strand with the pendant a while back to my daughter. Love borrowing them… interesting and well researched video. I did listen:)
I am ready for Valentino to get weird and wonderful with Alessandro!
I love accessories so I am excited for the change in director. I feel you often get more bang for your buck in making your outfit pop!
Hi Cassie.
Looking really good today in your Vivienne Westwood necklace😊
Have a nice day❤
Thanks so much! Wishing you a great one!!
Oh yes I’m loving the necklace. 😮
I just want to say the hair is amazing today girl! ❤
I do love your take on this new chapter in Valentino. Very good points made, especially with same but different font. Gucci also had the hip-hop world talking and wearing while Valentino was not the same type of flex. Cheers Beautiful!
Im here for it. Alessandro is extravagant and fun, and Valentino is not at all stuffy, so I’m delighted to see what’s in store for us. Other designers appointed at other brands have recently not made too much noise but hopefully they will grow into their role. I also love my rare pastel rockstuds with smooth snout. 😉Thanks for the breakdown Cassie! P.S. I hope you like the tremor gift we sent from California, we know how to shake it up around here(sorry not sorry)😅 love Catalina and Bijou 😘🐾🐾
I have been itching to get your take on this appointment! I just love watching a video when I know you're going to be so invested in the subject matter and so informed.
So buy something now during the PPP Era and before prices go up, or wait to see what Alessandro does??
I am so excited to see what Alessandro brings to Valentino!! I was thrilled when he was appointed and have been missing the fantastical glam rock opulence in fashion since quiet lux has taken over. I love the art of it all, I love the clashing and textures and prints… I hope he brings new life to accessories too! I haven’t purchased a Valentino piece since my rainbow rockstud wedges which we’re a 2010’s fever dream 😆🩷
I’m excited to see how the rockstud will be reimagined.
Another really good analysis. 👏
Yes !!❤❤ How exciting!
Love to know what fragrance you wear Cassie ❤
I'm excited too for Valentino & what they will come up with next! I may be one of the few but I really loved the Pink PP pantone shade in all it's glory. It was simply fabulous for me and I can't wait to see what the new creative director comes up with, although I didn't love his vision in Gucci. But I do love that expression, "Same language, different font"... Love love love!
I love Valentino and cannot wait to see what he can do!
Hello Cassie. Oh my...I will wait & see what the new creative director brings for Valentino. I'm guarded. Thanks Cassie for giving us the tea. U are a gem. 💚💚💚.
You are so welcome!💖💖💖
I am with you on the Marmont. Stud details are on the rise so with the right touch he could create the next it bag.
So excited about this. I was already a Valentino gal ( still a rockstud STAN- I have 4 pairs in counting) and obsessed with what Michele was doing at Gucci (I purchased so much during his time, RTW and Accessories). Totally stopped shopping GUCCI when he left and was sad. NOW this is a match made in heaven ( for me)
I love the Valentino Rockstud shoes. On my wishlist. Hopefully no price increase before I can purchase them.
Me remembering nearly all the bags from the jag collection in *yutulux* other apartment on the dimond tray.. I think i watched that video like 40 times. Purse collection goals
Cmon allesandro 🎉 i need the theatrics and story telling on the runway
I’m excited for this new chapter of Valentino. I loved the brand when Mr Garavani was creative director. I remember reading an interview he did for Hello (or maybe it was Ok!) magazine and dreamed of the day I’d be able to enjoy all the beautiful things he spoke of, that inspired him. I’m hoping for couture inspired pieces, Italian flair, and riviera chic fit for Arabian royals.
I still love my LV reverse monogram nkuwan clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
I'm late to this because I'm in mourning 😭Pierpaolo Piccioli IS Valentino to me, I love the romanticism, the colors, the flowers, the drama. I have no comment on Michele as I'm not a Gucci girlie but Piccioli will be missed.
Great points ❤😊
Great video!!!
Morning Cass Cass!! Well we have to wait and see what will happen to the brand next, when he departed only time will tell how well valentino does then.
Very true! I have high hopes!
you’re literally my comfort person i love you *yutulux*!
Your style here is on fire 🔥 so beautiful babe! 🥰 XXX from Italy
Cassie Today you are looking so so so beautiful and I really really love your explanation so so much you are my inspiration and I will support you so so much💖🙈💖🌸
Thank you so so much 🙌🏽💖😭
I am so looking forward to Valentino Men's tailoring under Michele.
Yes!!!
Great video.❤🤩
Superb 👏🏻
I still love the rockstud shoes.
🌸🌸🌸Lovely video! I really enjoyed it! 🌸🌸🌸
Thank you so much!💖💖💖
Love your look today, very nice. I like Valentino over Gucci.
When I think of Valentino, I think Jackie O post in her First Lady era and as you say, that look has kind of stayed throughout the years, only the rockstuds (which I've always hated) were a bit of a departure from classic Valentino. It will be interesting to see whether he stays in the Valentino lane or merges into another.
Every time I go into a Valentino store their accessories seem so basic. While nothing wrong with them, there’s little variety and nothing that draws me to any particular piece. I have a feeling Alessandro will finally create accessories and shoes that have more personality & vibes! 🎉 So excited!
I bought a *condup* super fake because I was still undecided on whether I liked it enough to buy the real deal. It arrived and it was great, I didn't need to buy the original one. The attention to detail is amazing and even shows in all the packaging and labels. It does make me feel a certain way about the designers selling these bags. They were selling it for about 10 times what I paid. They are ripping people off. Hermès is the worst at this - I imagine them in the board room laughing at how much people are prepared to pay.
there’s going to be a rockstud dress. mark my words. I’m seeing it with a rockstud headpiece as well 🤔
@cassie do you have a bag review for the green Bulgari bag that we see in your display? Thank you!
Valentino I like only for the dresses/ gowns. I hope he will remake them, cause Valentino always has that heavy cape attached to the back 😳🤪 it weights a ton, and it makes wearability low, only events, and if I don’t want event, and just beautiful evening dinner by the Ocean, alterations needed 😂 Looking fabulous Cassie, and I hope your predictions come truth 😜 and BTW you are not alone. I never care for those stud shoes either 🤪Have a blessed day🙏❤️
I hope they do too hahaha, thanks so much Giedre! Have a wonderful day 💖
The figures on Gucci's growth during his time there are telling. It was a wise move because there is so much room for Valentino to become a bigger house. I love my rockstud bag. The quality is excellent but I really would love something "fresher" to add to my collection. I can't wait to see what he comes up with.
I will never fit in to it but still excited to see what he does we need a new wild child of fashion its been a long time since we had JPG, Galliano, Mcqueen and Viv making fashion into art. ❤
I love the rock stud!!!
I think it's an exciting news. I wanted him at Fendi tbh because Kim Jones is doing a horrible job there.
I think that his heritage and Valentino's one are going to match well. He is good at diaphanous gowns, cute separates, colors and accessories.
At Valentino, he will have to cut on his theatrics: no costumes, no props, no gimmicks.
But about Quiet luxury, is it really driving the industry? When we look at Chanel, Vuitton, Dior, Prada and all the brands that are growing in the luxury market, they are not following that trend.
I think to be a driving force in luxury, you have to set yourself apart and this is what Michele can do with Valentino.
Great points! I’m excited to see what he does!
Cassie. Saw the yankee bag on fashionpile maybe yesterday on their site.
Febreze on the rockstud 😂😂
I love you Cassie
🙈 just a little freshness 🙈
I’m not sure even he can can Febreze the rockstud that horse has been beaten to death. They have rockstudded everything within an inch of its life. The rockstud hasn’t been fashionable or edgy in a long time. It’s passed into cringe.
I think Valentino also in addition to red kind of overtook studs and pink color.
I am excited to what happens!! Thank you Cassie!❤
Yayyy!! Me too! 💖
I really love your taste and style always so chic. 👌My faves would be the #nkuwan leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. 💓Thank you for your recommendations.
I hope Alessandro's aesthetic has evolved since leaving Gucci.
Amei todas as bolsas lindas e de muito bom gosto.Parabens *#yutulu*😘😘😘
Hi Cassie! Regarding your collab with Shay Jewelry, do you have the smaller of the lavender curb link bracelets? I watched your video on it and couldn't quite tell if you said you got the larger one or not. Also, did you need to size up half an inch or more to compensate for the thickness of the bracelet? I definitely want one in the lavendar and yellow gold but can't decide if I want the bigger one or not. Thanks! ❤ 😊
N interestingly kering bought 30% of Valentino shares. By 2028, they are allowed to buy til 100%
Yes!
This is the most exciting for me. It's kinda genius. He's not my favourite in terms of aesthetic but he's really good. A really good designer is typically able to adapt. I might eat my words but i dont think his Gucci is all he has under his belt. It must be so frustrating for Valentino purists but for me, the uproar is exciting for me.
Got here pretty early!
And I love it!!
I don’t miss a day a week #lvguci This show..😂😂😂😂
This is going to be sooooo interesting. Personally, I don't see him for Valentino. Loved him at Gucci btw, just amazing. He is going to have to stretch himself, but I believe he has the cache to do it. Nevertheless, I'm excited to see what this will look like. 😊
Cassie, why so preeetttyy?!!!!
Oh stoppppp 🙈💖
Interesting choice and direction. It will be more youthful than the current clientele demo but maybe thats what Valentino wants.
The proof is in the pudding.... Sales. So we see if a Loewe moment will happen over at Valentino.
This is what i thought too, they want to attract younger clients.. but the thing is Valentino has specific type of clients (just like Elie Saab or Zahir Murad) who go there mostly for evening wear. I’m a little worried what type of direction he will do with that..
I stopped shopping at Gucci when Alessandro Michegele took over. Alessandro’s designs were too out there & costumee in my opinion.
As Valentino girl, i treasure all my pieces from late 90s & early 2000s, Sig. Valentino made timeless classics. Ready to wear & accessories are wonderful quality (never had any issues), especially evening wear. The gowns are very popular during Ball season & amongst opera singers.
I’m worried what will happen to Valentino classics long time clients love, as well as becoming “flashy” 🙁
BTW Maria Grazia era wasn’t it either, i was glad she left but poor Dior🫣
We need more women as creative directors TBH
The musical chairs these brands do of moving the same dudes around is crazy 🤣
I predict a combination of Valentino Red and PP Pink on garments
Quite excited about this. I do love the studs and they make amazing flats… but it’s getting a little boring.
Yes I just feel like something exciting can be done with them! 💖
you’re literally my comfort person i love you #nkuwan!
Not sure. As I understand it ppp was doing the business for Valentino .. didn’t they have significant growth last year ?? Can only think the owners have huge ambitions for the brand - but then we don’t know where ppp is going yet so maybe more to be revealed
Hey Cassie; do you know by any chance why Gucci doesn't do couture? I definitely feel that couture that will be Alessandro's bread and butter and his creative side will flourish!
Hi there, well Gucci launched a couture line in 2010 ( frida giannini was the creative director back then) called premiere.
Surprised no strathberry … polene etc
I am excited for this. Give me “more is more” all day long please! Fashion has gone so dull 🥱
I’m with you!! 💖
I’m looking forward to AM’s creative expression in Valentino, both AM and Valentino have a similar spirit of whimsy. What I’m not looking forward to however is the INSANE price increase that’s bound to happen with every new CD appointment.
Cassie how are you
❤❤❤
Valentino is finished!
Amei todas as bolsas lindas e de muito bom gosto.Parabens #LVGUCI
❤
nkuwan Bolsa réplica 1:1 con imagen reflejada, resistente y resistente al desgaste. Me gusta mucho.
we’ll see if Alessandro will suffer a similar fate like Daniel Lee who struggled to create magic when he moved houses
Lee is failing to recreate his BV success with Burberry and let’s see if Michele can bring his midas touch to Valentino
Pretty sure .. The Gucci Dionysus is from the Tom Ford era
No old vintage dresses for Valentino
He will do amazing things. We all know we’ll be seeing oversized studs dripping like graffiti, LSD camoflauge ahhh anyway I’m so excited for it.
Alessandro made a mess of Gucci towards the end with his “Salvation Army couture😉😏”. I really can’t believe HE was chosen to head such an Elegant & Chic House. A disaster in the making!
Haute couture & sexy/over the top in 1 sentence?
That is not what haute couture is about 💁🏻♀️
That aside, Alessandro will need to take a "step " back , dive into the archives & we don't need to take the first collection super serious (first collections are a tip toe dip)
The 2th collection
Valentino i think about:
•Red
•Sofistication
•From daughter to mom to nanna
•colorblocking
•feathers
✌🏻🪻
