Valeria Mazza once again delivered a lesson in style in Bariloche, wearing an ensemble that was as elegant as it was current. Invited to the 60th birthday celebration of her friend Pappo Roca, husband of Vicky Fariña, the model chose a black lace dress by Menage à Trois and complemented it with an unexpected detail that completely elevated the look: knee-high black leather boots from Valeria Mazza Shoes.
Rather than reaching for the classic high heel, Valeria opted for footwear that injected strength and personality into a romantic-inspired design.
The 1950s-Inspired Dress, Refreshed with a Modern Twist
The chosen piece was a black midi-length dress crafted in embroidered lace with strategically placed sheer panels. With long sleeves and a silhouette drawn from the 1950s, the design highlighted the fabric’s delicacy without sacrificing sophistication.
The embroidery with small, sparkling appliqués added texture and a subtly glamorous touch for a nighttime event.
The Thigh-High Boots, the Detail That Changed Everything
Instead of pairing the dress with sandals or stilettos, Valeria chose black leather thigh-high boots, with a tall shaft and a slender heel.
This stylistic move, increasingly present in international collections, breaks with the classic lace’s vibe and brings a much more contemporary contrast. Moreover, the boots streamline the figure, visually lengthen the legs, and allow midi dresses to be worn even on cooler nights.
The combination of romantic garments with accessories inspired by urban or equestrian aesthetics is one of street style’s favorite formulas and shows that party dresses are no longer worn only with traditional shoes.
How to Copy Valeria Mazza’s Look
The key lies in daring to mix styles:
- Choose a black lace dress or one featuring sheer panels.
- Swap stilettos for black leather thigh-high boots.
- Keep accessories understated so the contrast between the two garments remains the focal point.
- Finish the look with natural makeup and loose hair to balance the ensemble.
Once again, Valeria Mazza proved that small stylistic tweaks can completely transform a classic look, turning it into a modern, elegant, and highly distinctive proposition.
