Pierpaolo Piccioli is rewriting the playbook for modern masculinity with VALENTINO’s latest stormer of a Fall/Winter 24/25 collection, “LE CIEL 20.24.” It’s all about that tender twilight blue that’s tearing up the rulebook and putting the fierce back into men’s fashion. This range doesn’t just nod to personal flair; it screams it from the rooftops, turning every silhouette into a live wire of new-age chic.

VALENTINO’s shaking up the colour game, fighting the good fight against old-school gender stereotypes. Piccioli’s suits serve face – talking less of the wardrobe and more of identity, he’s mapping out freedom with a capital ‘F’. Think whisper-soft pastels breaking through the beefy bravado of oversized outwear like a breath of fresh air.
The collection is a masterclass in multi-level mixing: textures play nice with tones, while Renaissance inspo gets up close and personal with the hard edge of High Relief embroidery. It’s a dance between delicate and daring where Piccioli turns the colour wheel into a revolutionary roundabout, splashing white and grey winter canvases with bursts of lilac loudness and rogue reds.
Materials tell their own stories – cotton’s no longer just casual, suede and leather slide effortlessly into the daily grind, and who’d have thought sweats could crash the formalwear party? Piccioli’s blurring boundaries, making casual the new king of luxury.
And oh boy, the accessories – they’re not shy. They’re the statement pieces that shout, “Look at me!” Valentino Garavani brings out the big guns with the VLogo The Bold Edition and the must-have VLogo Moon Bag. Shoes stride the tightrope between timeless Valentino symbols and the fresh kicks on the block, with the GentleGlam and the Runboot chartin’ a course for uncharted style territories.
Get ready to feast your eyes – VALENTINO’s dishing up a new flavour of fierce that’s about to hit the streets hard.
