RED VALENTINO CREATES EXCLUSIVE T-SHIRT FOR CHELSEA IN BLOOM

Embrace the wild and untamed spirit of this year’s Chelsea in Bloom at Red Valentino with an exclusive T-shirt designed in collaboration with Italian artist Matteo Giuntini, known for his eclectic approach to art, employing painting, sculpture and drawing in his multimedia works that are a mix of stories, dreams and fanciful characters. His art is the resulting combination of irony with melancholy, astonishment with memory.

Available exclusively at the Sloane Street boutique for £115, a limited edition of just 85 Tees featuring a stylised tiger entangled within the stems of two giant flowers, it is a striking and covetable nod to this year’s Chelsea In Bloom theme, ‘Floral Safari’, which Red Valentino will be embracing during the annual floral art competition from May 22^nd.

Get ready for a foray into the jungle when you step into the brand’s flagship shore, as floral designer Neeva Jay will be transforming the sleek space into a sophisticated verdant jungle with entangled vines growing out of a wild grass and moss undergrowth, while lush Monstera, Livistonia, stunning Leucadendron, magical Philodendron and Banana plants will provide a canopy trail across a wooden structure to dramatic effect.

Intrepid explorers will discover, among the spring/summer 2017 collection from creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli, a majestic grass tiger, a symbol of wealth and wild power and synonym of courage, vitality and strength, evoking the idea of royalty, power and majesty.

And, on Thursday May 25^th, Giuntini will be in store between 12pm and 8pm, when you can meet him, enjoy a cocktail and explore the jungle as you shop the spring collection and discover the new pre-fall/winter 2017-18 collection, which features its fair share of florals, designed for a passionate and eccentric girl.
