This Valentino is very similar to the work he was doing for the 1977 season that was so beautifully captured by Deborah Turbeville for the Fall campaign. I have included several reference photos of the similar gowns from the Haute Couture season that year and you can see how this one would have evolved form those for the boutique line

The dress is made from a feather light silk crepe chiffon in his signature shade of red. The fabric choice allows for the sense of airiness that the dress has once it is on and that beautiful shape. The bodice is strapless and is kept very simple with a straight across cut and inner boning on the sides so it stays on place. Two rows of those silk ruffles run around it and they are set so that just a few inches at the waist is left to be seen. This gives you some shape through the waist and keep the dress from being one solid column of nothing but ruffles. The skirt falls to the floor from there, gradually widening out as it nears the hem. Here the ruffles take center stage and fully cover the skirt in horizontal rows that slightly overlap each other. These run fully down the length of the skirt from waist to hem. The lightness of the silk allows them to move with the slightest bit of movement on your part. The effect that this creates is wonderful. It is a beautiful and romantic dress and showcases the best of Valentino's work. Excellent condition with one minor note below

Fully lined in a red silk and closes with a back metal and nylon zipper. Light boning in the sides of the bodice. I see one very faint mark on one ruffle to the side of the waist at the front. Please review the photo after the label shot. Note the back will close completely on the right sized frame. It was just a touch small on my dress form.

Bust: 15" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 12" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: 20" flat across from side seam to side seam
Bodice: 9" from top of the bodice to waist
Skirt: 44.5" from waist to hem

Modern Sizing Equivalent: XXS-XS

If you like ash in your face and then wash it off: this is your product
Color: Dark
This is EXTREMELY dark, yet it looks like Ash in the face. Besides, if you don't wash your hands INMEDIATLEY the COLOR will stick to it for the rest of the day, regardless how often you wash them then. If you then, wash the hand as - never advised by the product description - QUICKLY, you risk to get streaks in your face. Although, passing the pain of filthy looking hands and sleeping overnight with the product, THEN wash your face you have a slight tan. Just like going shopping, and getting a regular product with a GRATIS slap in the face. Congrats! Much prefer L'Oreal Paris Sublime Bronze Luminous Bronzer, cheaper and efficient. Downside (or upside, depends on taste) your skin (may use on the whole body) stays sparkly for one day. The tan, though lasts quite a bit. Nivea Sunkissed Beautiful Legs (you may apply on all the body, your arms will not complain being slightly tanned) gives you a slight tan, smells ok, yet if you wish to keep the already slight tan, one must apply it again and again each day.

Good color but not worth the effort..
I was disappointed. I've used all kinds of self tanners and this one was the most difficult of any. I know the proper way to apply them.. This didn't blend evenly no matter the effort. I was left with major streaks. Had to throw it out. HOWEVER, I did like the color it developed.. I wish it'd been different..

Finally, a Volufiline Product That Isn’t Just a Tiny Sprinkle in the Formula
I bought this because I have been trying to find a Volufiline product that actually makes sense. There has been so much hype around Volufiline lately, but a lot of products only include a tiny amount and then market it like it is the main feature. That is why this one caught my attention. The Ordinary is clearly stating 92% Volufiline with 1% Palmitoyl Isoleucine, so this feels much more direct and less gimmicky than many of the products I have tried. As someone with 52-year-old post-menopausal dry mature skin, I am realistic about what a product like this can and cannot do. This is not going to reverse time, rebuild your face, lift sagging skin, or create permanent volume. That is not how topical skincare works. But if you are looking for a targeted product that can give a temporary plumper, smoother-looking effect in certain areas, this is one of the better Volufiline options I have used. The texture feels more like a lightweight oil-serum than a watery serum. Because of that, I personally prefer using it over moisturizer or mixing a small amount into a cream before applying it to the areas where I want that softer, fuller look. I would not just smear this all over my face like a normal serum. It works best as a targeted product. Ingredient-wise, the formula is intentionally simple. Volufiline itself is based on Anemarrhena asphodeloides root extract in an oil-soluble base, and this also includes Palmitoyl Isoleucine, which fits the plumping/skin-conditioning concept. The fact that this is not padded with a long list of filler ingredients is part of why I like it. It feels focused. I also like that it is fragrance-free. That matters to me because products used around expression lines, cheeks, and delicate areas can become irritating quickly if they are loaded with fragrance. I did not find this irritating, but the box does mention that a slight tingling can happen, so patch testing makes sense. In terms of results, I noticed more of a temporary cosmetic smoothing and plumping effect than a dramatic transformation. That is exactly what I expected. It makes certain areas look a little softer and less dry-looking, especially when used with a good moisturizer. For mature skin, that can make a real visual difference, even if it is not structural or permanent. Who may like this? Someone who has been curious about Volufiline but wants a more concentrated, straightforward formula instead of a cream that barely contains any. Also someone who understands that this is about temporary cosmetic plumping and skin softness, not actual facial reshaping. Who may not like it? If you dislike oil-based textures, want instant dramatic volume, or expect filler-like results, this will probably disappoint you. Overall, I really like this. It is one of the few Volufiline products I have tried that feels honest about what it is, and the higher concentration makes it more appealing than many of the overhyped options out there.

Promising Skincare Product with Clean Ingredients
I have always loved this brand and have purchased many of their skincare products in the past, so I was excited to try their Volufiline after seeing how popular it has become on TikTok. A lot of people online claim it helps plump the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without needing injections, which definitely caught my attention. For the price, I think it is a pretty reasonable product if it actually delivers results. From what I understand, this is not a product that gives instant results and it can take at least three months or longer of consistent use before you really notice a difference. Because of that, I cannot honestly say yet whether it works or not, but I plan to continue using it and will update my review over time if I start seeing visible changes. I also purchased a separate roller ball attachment for the bottle because it makes application much easier and more precise. Without the roller attachment, you would mostly be applying the product with your fingers, which can apparently cause your fingers themselves to become plumper from repeated contact. As always, one of the things I appreciate most about this brand is the transparency and focus on clean ingredients. Their products always feel thoughtfully formulated, and I like knowing exactly what I am putting on my skin. Overall, I am hopeful about this product and excited to see the long-term results.

Good skincare. Just okay for wrinkles and fine lines
I’m not sure it’s filling in wrinkles but it’s not hurting either. I kind of think once your a certain age there isn’t a lot of change that happens with surface level products. It’s kind of more about slowing the aging process versus reversing it. Reversing may only happen in a surgeons office or by treatment from a medical esthetician. That being said I do think this product is offering me support by slowing down the aging process and reducing new lines and wrinkles. My skin definitely has a dewy appearance after using this product. The product is lightweight and goes on like a light oil. It is a tad greasy when it’s first applied but it does absorb well. I try to put this on when I have time to let it absorb a little but I have also been in a rush and had to go straight into makeup application after using. I didn’t have any issues with the quick transition. As with most of the Ordinary line the prices are economical for skincare. I give this 4 stars only because I didn’t really see a change/improvement in my current fine lines and wrinkles. I do think overall it’s offering some benefits. The bottle is small but the amount needed per application is small. You have to shake the product out of a little restricter cap which is kind of annoying. I think a tiny dropper would make for better dispensing and less waste. As with all my facial serums and skincare products, I always rub any remaining product on the tops of my hands.
