The only nod to the seaside in Giambattista Valli's resort collection was an elegant coral-colored print that appeared on a strapless dress and on a top with an asymmetrical neckline. Aside from that, it was all about city sophistication—crisp shirtdresses and safari jacket suits cinched with feminine bows; a little black dress and a statement-making white one, both in an off-the-shoulder style; and an on-trend color palette of yellow, orange, and blush pink. Evening highlights included a pair of halter dresses with a frill of ruffles spilling down the front, but the best after-dark look was a great-looking slim white Le Smoking with black satin details.
