Editor’s Guide: How to Wear Giambattista Valli
1. The Tulle Moment
The brand is iconic for its tulle cocktail dresses. Because these dresses have significant volume, pair them with a sleek, open-toe sandal to elongate the leg. Keep hair swept back to let the neckline and ruffles breathe.
2. Day-to-Night Florals
Valli’s silk floral dresses are versatile. Style them with flat sandals for a Lake Como lunch, or switch to metallic heels for a summer wedding. The botanical prints act as their own accessory.
3. The Tweed Set
For a sharper look, invest in a Valli bouclé jacket. Wear it over a simple white tee and denim to modernize the “lady who lunches” aesthetic, giving it a cool, youthful edge.
Sizing Guide: Giambattista Valli
Giambattista Valli uses Italian Sizing (IT).
The Fit: Generally runs small. The bodices are often fitted and non-stretch to support the volume of the skirts.
Recommendation: We strongly recommend sizing up, especially in items with a fixed waist or fitted bust (like the corseted gowns).
Shoes: Valli shoes fit true to size. However, for high-heeled sandals with narrow straps, consider taking half a size up for comfort.
Length: Maxi dresses are cut extremely long for a dramatic effect. Unless you are very tall, expect to have the hem tailored.
