Valentino Fall-Winter 2015/2016 collection at Paris Men's Fashion Week

Luxury label Valentino also was among the fashion houses which presented their latest collections during the Paris men's fashion week Fall-Winter 2015/2016.

Brand's designers and Creative directors, Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli showed images drawn from the heydays of the Ballets Russes in Paris and the Beat generation in San Francisco, both of them moments when poets, painters, and wild-eyed dreamers came together to create something new.

Through the miracle of the Interweb, the designers had found a young Melbourne-based artist named Esther Stewart. Her geometric color-blocked paintings became the inspiration for some of the clothes and all of the carpets that lined the Hôtel Salomon de Rothschild, where the show was held. "Geometry is a new form of decoration", said Piccioli. It certainly contributed to the strongest looks in this collection.
