This romantic ruffled silk skirt by Valentino from the early 2000s channels the house’s timeless elegance with a playful, flamenco-inspired twist. Crafted from sheer black silk chiffon with delicate white polka dots, the skirt features cascading layered ruffles that create dramatic movement with every step. The feminine silhouette hugs the waist and falls into a floaty, asymmetric hem. Two of the ruffle layers have small tears, but they blend into the flowing structure and remain largely unnoticeable when worn.
Condition: Good vintage condition – rips in two ruffle layers, visually discreet due to the skirt’s design
Size: US 4 – best fits a modern S
Designer Background: In the early 2000s, Valentino Garavani continued to emphasize femininity and grace with classic silhouettes softened by fluid fabrics and couture-level detailing. This skirt is a beautiful representation of that era’s understated luxury.
