Valentine’s Day serves as the perfect backdrop for showcasing your unique style. Whether you’re gearing up for a romantic dinner by candlelight or a daring night out, the right outfit can transform a fleeting moment into a lasting memory.

This season, I’m turning your attention to four designers who have truly excelled in the realm of romantic “form.”

Runway Inspiration

The Bold Statement: Herbert Levine—renowned for his innovative structures—kicks things off with eye-catching red mesh over-the-knee boots. When paired with a high-slit gown, it’s a stunning example of “dangerous and divine.”

Modern Artistry: Maticevski shapes fabric into breathtaking creations. His red gowns boast magnificent draped open-backs and airy sleeves, ideal for an elegant gala.

Playful Texture: MONTSAND channels “coquette-chic” vibes with tiered fringe in cream, complemented by sweet black velvet bows, like a dream in motion.

Mysterious Elegance: MAGDA BUTRYM leads the charge in floral-textured designs. A burgundy midi dress featuring a 3D ruffled neckline resembles a deep winter rose, sensual and cinematic.
