Valentino's Pierpaolo Piccioli wants every piece in the label's collection to have a couture feel - it's why he spends as much time perfecting simpler styles, like this midi dress, as he does on the brand's more extravagant designs. Expertly tailored for a slim fit, it's made from black stretch-crepe and has a draped cowl neckline and seamed waist to cinch your shape.
