• This dress is from the Fall 2015 collection and you can see it's references in the photos that we have included here from the ready-to-wear show.
• In 2015 both Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli were the acting creative directors for Valentino.
• The neckline is high and comes up in a neat collar around the neck. There is a single layer of the netting that runs across the front and back upper bodice.
• The sleeves are net and have an added dot and suggestion of a vertical stripe worked into the netting. They are made of a double layer of the tulle and each sleeve is slightly puffed above its end.
• The top of the bodice is cut straight across and that continues around to the back. The bodice is has a n overlaid panel of the same netting used for the sleeves. The panel hangs over a lace trimmed and dot netting layer that is stacked over an inner silk. It skims over you to the waist which is cut on the more generous side.
• The skirt falls from there to the floor and it is made up of five more tiers of the dotted netting. Each panel that runs over the skirt has an additional layer of lace attached to the tulle for added detail. It is the same lace that was used underneath the panel on the bodice.
• Each tier slightly overlaps the one below it and this gives the skirt a beautiful soft and romantic feel. It also gives you a really pretty line as it widens out as it near the hem.
  
• When you move all of the layers softly move around you. It is very beautiful.
• The dress is fully lined in ivory chiffon and closes with a back hidden set zipper. It still has its original tags attached and was never worn.
