Valentino’s Pierpaolo Piccioli talks designing couture from quarantine
For Vogue‘s June/July portfolio, Hamish Bowles spoke to Pierpaolo Piccioli about how his life and workflow have shifted while he and his team self-isolate. The designer revealed he’s still working on Valentino’s upcoming Haute Couture collection, but that it might take a different form once it’s unveiled. “I am working on couture, of course, and I hope that I’ll be able to do the collection,” Piccioli said. “But I’m thinking of presenting in a different way, and so I’ll also work in a different way. Now, of course, the runway is not going to be possible, but I don’t want to skip the collection; I want to do it with a different medium.” {Vogue}
