Spring 2002 Valentino by Mr. Valentino Runway Look 79 Strapless Red Dot Silk Chiffon Dress w Ruffled Tiers No Defined Waist Under it he had doneThe twin of this dress walked the Spring 2002 runway as Look 79. It was made under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino. The dress was one of a group of seven presented near the end of the show. I think it was the best of that group and it is a wonderful example of Valentino's work for his main line during this time period. I love having the runway photos and video of the dress for reference so that you can see just how amazing it is
