This absolutely gorgeous pre-fall 2009 Valentino black sheer illusion lace strapless gown is a breathtaking early design from the newly appointed co–creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli. Though the duo had worked behind the scenes at Valentino for over a decade, this transitional era marked one of the first collections at the helm — and they approached it with a fresh romantic vision. This gown was featured prominently in their pre-fall catalogue, a collection especially marketed in the Chinese and East Asian markets. It clearly resonated — Taiwanese pop star and former news anchor Patty Hou wore it to the 20th Golden Melody Awards, and it was actress Charmaine Sheh's choice for Hong Kong’s 2009 TVB Awards Ceremony.

This Valentino is all about sensual illusion and masterful texture. The strapless fully-boned bustier bodice is fashioned in finely pleated black silk, its edges lightly touches the delicate lace that peeks out along the top like soft eyelash trim. From there, the dress melts into a mesmerizing nude-illusion foundation enveloped in black floral lace, heavily embellished with sequins and dangling black beads that shimmer and sway with every move. The lace is ruched gently across the torso, creating that body-skimming hourglass Valentino silhouette. And then comes the drama: an oversized, architectural bow that wraps around the bust and transforms into a long sash that drapes the length of the gown to the floor. It’s beautifully constructed, sculptural, and very much a signature of Chiuri and Piccioli’s early work. The hemline finishes with elegantly scalloped lace, adding just a kiss of softness as it pools behind you. This is the kind of gown that belongs at life’s most luminous events — an important red carpet, galas, black-tie weddings; anywhere you want a moment that photographs like a dream. Collectors of modern Valentino know how special the early designs are, and wearing these dresses feels like stepping directly into the brand’s evolving history — commanding, feminine, and unforgettable.

I Wanted to Like It
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I really wanted to like it because of the great reviews it gets with backpackers and generally with people that don't like "greasy hands syndrome" after applying sunscreen. But after using a stick I found that it's just not that good. The good: small, lightweight container. Not greasy. Good protection, I was in the sun all day hiking multiple days straight and only put on sunscreen twice per day and I didn't have any burning... and I burn easily. The bad: Value: the $12.53 sunscreen container only lasted about 8 days. And that was just my arms, neck, and half my face since I wore a shirt and long pants and a wide brim hat every day when hiking. I would expect this amount of sunscreen to last a lot longer than that on such a limited area. I'm not a big person either. Application, chafing: it's the opposite of greasy, almost chalky. You use the stick to apply to your skin in stripes, then you have to "blend it in" by rubbing with the backs of your hands so your palms don't get chalky. Since the stick is so dry this requires a fair amount of force and it chafes as you rub it around. When your skin a bit sandy it hurts. Application, crumbling: on a chilly but sunny morning, about 45 F, I applied sunscreen and small chunks of the stick crumbled off. I watched precious chunks of the already overpriced sunscreen drop to the ground. Residue: while it's not greasy, it's physical sunblock so it gives your skin the characteristic whitish sparkle. That's to be expected. But what I didn't foresee is it will rub off on anything your skin touches. My gear had white chalk-like marks (technically titania powder?) on my shirt collars, backpack straps, sunglasses, and a few other high-touch items. Overall I think it's a neat idea. I'm not overly disappointed with my purchase. But for $12.50 I expect sunscreen to be easier to apply and for the container to last longer than about 8 days. I can't burn $50/month in the summer months when a single container of chemical sunscreen will do the job. Pro tip: you can buy food-safe 3 oz TSA travel containers. Load one of those up with chemical sunscreen and you have something that beats this in every way except for the greasiness, which you can mitigate by picking a lower SPF sunscreen (the 30 SPF you wear is infinitely better than the 50 SPF you skip!).

Light and simple
Style: SPF 50 (Pack of 2), Size: 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 2)
Absolutely love this sunscreen! It offers great coverage without feeling heavy or sticky. It absorbs quickly, doesn't leave a white cast, and held up beautifully during long days in the sun. This has become a staple in our family. Hands down the best sunscreen! Lightweight, effective, and comfortable enough to wear all day. It protected our skin even during hours of outdoor sports and activities. I'll definitely be purchasing again! ☀️🧴💛
