Black and white at Valentino's exhibition



Si resulta que estáis en Londres este fin de semana no olvidéis visitar la exposición de Valentino Master of Couture en la Somerset House (¡acaba hoy!)

La verdad es que me esperaba mucho más de esta exposición por eso quizás salí un poco decepcionada. En general, los objetos expuestos eran bastante pobres y lo único que vale la pena son los 134 vestidos exhibidos en una especie de pasarela (que debe ser visitada en “zig-zag” porque no puedes ver un lado y volver luego por el otro)

Por supuesto no están permitidas las fotografías por lo que me esperaba encontrar un catálogo maravilloso en la tienda. Pero a llegar allí a parte de algunas libretas, bolsas de lona y lápices no había nada más…

No obstante ver a un auténtico Valentino delante de tus narices (cómo por ejemplo el que llevó Julia Roberts para recoger su Oscar en el año 2000) ¡¡compensó todo!!   

Para ese día opté por un look que la verdad me gustaba más en la calle que en la cámara…   
¿Vosotras que opináis chicas?
¡Feliz domingo! 

If you happen to be in London this weekend don't forget to visit the Valentino Master of Couture exhibition that is held in Somerset House (it ends today!).

I expected a lot of this exhibition and to be honest I felt a bit disappointed at the end. The display of elements was a bit poor and the only thing that was really worth it were the 134 dresses shown in a kind of catwalk (that has to be seen in “zig-zag” 'cause we were not allowed to visit one side and coming back to see the other).

Pictures were not allowed of course, so I expected a beautiful catalogue at the shop with all the amazing dresses photographed. Instead we found a little shop with few bags, book notes and pencils...  Quite poor all in all...

However, having a real Valentino in front of your nose (like the one Julia Roberts wore when she won the Oscar in 2000) compensated everything!!  

For that day I wore a look that in my opinion, worked better in reality than in the pictures... 

What do you think ladies??
Have nice Sunday!!

    Pues qué quieres que te diga!!!, me parece espectacular!, si tú dices que te gustaba más el look en la calle que en la cámara me imagino que estarías impresionante!.. A mí es que tu estilo tan diferente y rompedor me encanta.. tus mezclas imposible, y siempre marcando estilo y personalidad.. La falda es preciosa!.
    De la exposición de Valentino, sólo el hecho de ver esa cantidad de vestidos en forma de pasarela creo que ya merece la pena ser vista!.. Cuántas cosas vas a ver allí en Londres Patricia!.. aprovechalas todas a tope!!..

    Un besazo enorme corazón!

    Me da una pena increible que no se pudieran hacer fotos, asi nos hubieses podido mostrar un poco, aunque seguro q los valentino no tienen nada que envidiarle a tu estupendo look.

    Te sigo desde ya, me encanta tu blog, espero que te pases por el mio y si te gusta te quedes, un besazo

    you know, I always love the black and white trend with a pop of colour, so when I saw this outfit I was so happy! I love the cobalt bag and that lovely emerald necklace. Such a great look, especially for attending an exhibition! Sorry to hear it was disappointing! xo

    QUé look más mono!! Un 10! Me encanta :)
    Yo fui a ver la exposición en diciembre y pienso un poco como tú, los vestidos que están en la pasarela son muy bonitos y tienes la suerte de ver los que han llevado las celebs a diferentes actos incluso el de Jackeline Kennedy. Muchos son fascinantes pero sí, no se pueden hacer fotos :( el catálogo tampoco dice mucho y me pareció muy corta..
    Tuve la suerte de ver la de Hollywood Costume, no sé si la viste...y esa sí que me encantó!!
    Vives en Londres?
    Besitos guapaaa

    Another chic look of yours! I would have wanted to see the exhibition but then there is only so much you can squeeze into a weekend in London. Reading your opinion about it, reassures me that I didn't miss too much then... Have a great week.
