How to Style Valentino Garavani’s New Season Handbags
Polished Vain Bags work hard in structured outfits. Pair the black shoulder or tote versions with crisp shirts, soft suiting, or a clean white tank and maxi skirt combo. They bring shine without shouting.
Embroidered Vain Styles call for texture play. Think cotton poplin dresses, loose knits, or linen tailoring. Let the colours do the talking — everything else can afford to tone down.
Nellcôte Minis are made for movement. Weekend jeans, oversized blazers, or sun-faded dresses – these bags carry the ‘out-the-door’ energy we all want in summer.
Viva Superstar Bags are pure dopamine. Lean into their colour-block confidence with clashing brights or pull it back with muted basics. Either way, they add instant intent.
Rockstud Spike returns to remind us that studs aren’t dead – they’ve just grown up. Style with monochrome looks or evening separates for a subtle punk nod.
The 9to5 VLogo belongs in your rotation. Office to gallery opening? Done. Style it with crisp tailoring, fluid trousers or even a tee-and-trousers uniform. It makes practicality feel like a choice.
