This was one of the first looks sent down the Valentino pre-fall 2019 runway in Tokyo on November 27, a hint to the parade of red that was about to follow
Red was also the shade of choice for the last two looks, presented by models Kaia Gerber and Adut Akech
The show marks the first time that Valentino has womenswear and menswear down the same runway
The house shade of fiery Valentino red, was worn head to toe, right down to the accessories
Footwear from the Valentino pre-fall collection
A bag from the Valentino pre-fall collection
Piccioli sent a number of smock shapes down the runway
The looks were inspired by the Japanese philosophy of wabi sabi, whereby flaws and imperfections are regarded as beautiful in their own right
Black and shades of deep, dark blue had their moment on the runway, too
Pre-fall menswear from Valentino
Piccioli's was a deliberately diverse, hearteningly inclusive runway
A rare pop of print on the Valentino pre-fall runway
Frills and ruffles adorned most of the womenswear looks at Valentino

17-year-old Kaia Gerber, daughter of Cindy Crawford, presented the last look of the show - a fierce red, ruffled gown without any accessories
