Giambattista Valli Spring 2015

PARIS — Although Amal Alamuddin and her new actor husband appear nowhere in this video let alone the runway, their presence was unavoidable Monday afternoon at the Grand Palais where Giambattista Valli presented his women’s Spring 2015 ready-to-wear collection. The newlywed couple made headlines this week stepping out in public wardrobed by the Italian designer and thus put a spring in the step of the house. Last season as were several before Valli hosted his show at Faculté de médecine Paris Descartes, but this season upped the ante considerably with an impressively staged runway at the Grand Palais. On the afternoon Kia Low, Maja Salamon, and Hedvig Palm all featured looks on the runway and went a long way to keeping Giambattista Valli the household name it has suddenly become this week.
