Pierpaolo Piccioli, the Valentino Designer, was inspired by the Moon in this futuristic collection. Because of the fact that his oldest daughter is studying Italian literature at university, he was re-introduced by her to The Frenzy of Orlando, the Renaissance epic poem by Ludovico Ariosto. Written as early as 1516, it marked the first time the moon was referenced as a physical place.
“I was very impressed by the part when Orlando loses his mind for love, and his best friend has to go to the moon to recover his sanity,” Piccioli said in a preview on Place Vendôme on Friday afternoon. “It’s important, because the moon is the place where you can find what is lost in the heart. I like this idea of the moon as a second opportunity.”
