Socially driven is certainly one way to describe the Valentino Spring ’16 collection. The clothing, including white ceramic jewelry that looked like teeth and Masai-inspired patterns, may appear to have some major African influences, and that was entirely intentional. Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli were inspired to remind their audience of the tens of thousands of African refugees who in the past year have been flooding southern Italy. A social conscience is surely, in more ways than one, something beautiful.
