Tweed Houndstooth Shorts

In his Resort 2025 collection, Valentino's creative director Alessandro Michele deftly blends different eras of fashion together. Here, we see the houndstooth pattern that first achieved popularity in the ‘20s, while the shorts' silhouette is reminiscent of the ‘60s and ‘70s. Both these eras saw a sense of liberation flourish among womenswear style codes, and the respective aesthetics reflect that.

Garavani is better known by his mononym, Valentino. From the signature Rockstud leather shoes to richly embellished dresses, knitwear, tailoring and separates, Valentino Garavani pieces are characterised by a bold and playful use of colour and pattern, with a through line of glamour and luxury.
