{"product_id":"valentino-garavani-crystal-buckle-lace-cardigan","title":"ARCHIVAL Early 2000s Lace-Inset Crystal Buckle Cardigan – Valentino","description":"\u003ch5 data-end=\"515\" data-start=\"277\"\u003eA rare and highly collectible Valentino Garavani knit cardigan from the early 2000s, defined by its dramatic deep plunge neckline, distinctive crystal-embellished buckle closures, and intricate lace-inset waist panels.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-end=\"843\" data-start=\"517\"\u003eDesigned under Valentino Garavani’s direction during one of the house’s most elegant ready-to-wear periods, this piece reflects the designer’s signature blend of romance, structure, and understated glamour. The silhouette is sharply feminine, balancing a clean fitted line with sensual cutaway detailing through the waist.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-end=\"1277\" data-start=\"845\"\u003eCrafted in fine black wool knit, the cardigan features three jewel-like buckle fastenings at the front, framed by delicate floral lace cutout panels that create subtle corset references while contouring the waist. The elongated sleeves and plunging neckline heighten the sculptural quality, while the embellished hardware brings the opulent “day-to-night” sensibility associated with Valentino’s early-2000s collections.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-end=\"1621\" data-start=\"1279\"\u003eWhat makes this piece especially desirable is the combination of mainline Valentino Garavani labeling, collectible crystal hardware, and the rarer lace-panel construction, 2details particularly valued by archival buyers. Compared with simpler Valentino knits from the period, this reads as a more directional and harder-to-source example.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand: Valentino\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"727\" data-end=\"730\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner: Valentino Garavani\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"752\" data-end=\"755\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial: Wool\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"800\" data-end=\"803\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:  Black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"815\" data-end=\"818\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEra: Early 2000's\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCondition:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003ePre‑owned item with minor signs of wear consistent with use.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003ci\u003eSome images may include AI‑assisted visualisation.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cb\u003eLate returns incur a daily fee of 5% of the retail value or €40–€60 per day (whichever is higher).\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"Valentino Garavani","offers":[{"title":"4 days","offer_id":53627654439249,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"7 days","offer_id":53627654472017,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"14 days","offer_id":53627654504785,"sku":null,"price":190.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Buy","offer_id":53627654537553,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/0863\/3425\/files\/WhatsAppImage2026-04-22at23.27.01.jpg?v=1783680385","url":"https:\/\/mezzanotte.com\/products\/valentino-garavani-crystal-buckle-lace-cardigan","provider":"Mezzanotte","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
