Bold flashes of red brought a boldness to the restrained color palette seen at Giambattista Valli's Fall '17 show. This dress is cut from lightweight silk-chiffon and layered with ruffles that fall across the body and create movement at the skirt. Take a note from the runway styling and wear this pussy-bow piece with tonal boots, or strappy heels if you're feeling more classic.

Giambattista Valli's romantic gown is cut from featherweight silk-georgette printed with painterly tonal-pink florals, dragonflies and ladybirds. The designer's couture training makes him an expert at creating elegant, feminine lines and this piece has a flattering nipped-in waist and soft blouson sleeves. Fasten the pussy-bow ties in the traditional way, or sweep them over your shoulder as seen in the Pre-Fall '17 presentation.

The best thing about wearing a dress is that it will always make you look as though you've made an effort - nobody understands this better than Giambattista Valli, whose collections are filled with mood-boosting styles. This Pre-Fall '17 style has been made in Italy from structured silk-crepe and whimsically decorated with flowers and dragonflies. It has a low V-neckline and is framed by scalloped lace and a satin bow at the waist.

Giambattista Valli's ivory dress is perfect for brides who want something a little easier to dance in on the evening of their wedding day, or for a rehearsal dinner. This piece is made from crepe and has diaphanous silk-chiffon sleeves and yoke that are slightly sheer. It's detailed with intricate guipure lace and ruffled organza trims.

Rihanna beautifully demonstrated the show-stopping power of a Giambattista Valli gown when she wore the brand - not once, but twice - to recent red carpet appearances. This long-sleeved style is cut from whisper-weight silk-chiffon in a vivid red shade and layered with intricate floral lace at the bodice. A grosgrain ribbon defines the smallest part of the waist, and the floor-sweeping skirt demands to be worn with towering heels.

This season's prettiest florals could have been lifted from a centuries-old painting or hand-drawn wallpaper. A beautiful example of what we mean, Giambattista Valli's dress is expertly cut from silk-crepe and decorated with tonal-pink anemones and dragonflies - they are seen throughout the label's Pre-Fall '17 collection. Wear yours to a host of events with heels and a mini bag.

All eyes were on Rihanna when she wore a red Giambattisa Valli gown to her latest film premiere - not only did it flatter the singer and actress, it showcased the designer's love of feminine silhouettes. Designed in the same vibrant hue, this figure-hugging crepe dress has a nipped-in waist and softly ruffled sleeves. We think it's perfect for weddings and luncheons.

Giambattista Valli's Fall '17 collection pays homage to quintessential French style in a romantic way. Printed with painterly blooms, this silk-chiffon dress is gathered into a bow at the bodice and has a ruffled peplum hem underpinned by layers of organza and polka-dot tulle for volume. The studded faux leather trims are inspired by corsets and toughen up its feminine feel.
