Giambattista Valli Spring/ Summer 2009 Shoe Collection

It’s about a metamorphosis. There’s a big change going on in these times, said designer Giambattista Valli.

That is how Giambattista Valli refered to the look for his Spring 2009 collection, shown on the runways of Paris. This collection is truly magnificent. It is very feminine and classic. Valli has a lot of fans which include; Victoria Beckham, Natalie Portman, Caroline Sieber and Emma Watson, to name but a few, and you can see why they love his creations.

So gorgeous. I love strappy sandals and these are just fabulous!

These are my favourite shoes. I will take the dress too.

Absolutely gorgeous. So feminine and girly.

I love this colour and it works with the black dress.
