Today the new amazing
Valentino collection was presented in Paris. I need to admit that over last few
years Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli,
currently designing for Valentino, were and still are my favorite designers.
For this reason I am concerned.
Looking through pictures of
the new collection at Style.com I have noticed the great resemblance to the Zara
coat, which is in the stores already for few weeks (I had my eye on it). After
hearing that a lot of channels are talking about the power of Zara and how they
are copying designers, it is making me worried. Will the designers will
be able to catch up with a mass production and still offer something new to the customers or will it will end up that designers will look like copying mass
production trends?
