Valentino

Valentino SpA is a renowned fashion house established by the talented Italian designer Valentino Garavani. The company offers a range of exquisite lines, including Valentino (Haute Couture and Ready-to-wear), Valentino Garavani (shoes and accessories), Valentino Roma (women’s ready-to-wear), and RED Valentino (contemporary women’s fashion).

Valentino’s passion for fashion became apparent at an early age when he apprenticed under his aunt and a local fashion designer in Voghera, Italy. He further honed his skills by pursuing education at the École des Beaux-Arts and the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne in France. His apprenticeship at renowned fashion houses such as Jacques Fath, Balenciaga, Jean Desses, and Guy LaRoche contributed to his vast knowledge and experience in the industry.

In 1959, Valentino returned to Italy and embarked on the journey of establishing his own fashion empire. Drawing from his learnings in Paris, he showcased his exceptional talent and style in a grand manner. His red dresses became iconic, to the extent that the fashion industry now associates a particular shade of red with “Valentino Red.”

Valentino’s international debut in 1962 catapulted him into the limelight, capturing the attention of wealthy and influential clients from all corners of the world. Among his esteemed clientele were Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, Princess Margaret, and Jacqueline Kennedy. Valentino gained further acclaim when he designed a series of six dresses worn by Jacqueline Kennedy during her year of mourning after the tragic assassination of her husband. He also had the honor of designing her wedding gown for her marriage to Aristotle Onassis.

In 1966, Valentino presented an all-white collection, which featured his distinctive “V” logo. This collection received tremendous praise and accolades. The following year, he was honored with the prestigious Neiman Marcus Fashion Award. As a true embodiment of Italian couture, Valentino achieved enduring success and expanded his empire to over 70 countries.

In 1998, Valentino and his partner decided to sell the company, marking a new chapter for the brand. Valentino officially announced his retirement from the fashion industry in 2007, with his last collection showcased in January 2008. The final show was a nostalgic gathering, with many top models who had worked closely with Valentino returning to grace the runway in his designs.

Since 2008, the creative direction of the Valentino brand has been entrusted to Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpalo Piccioli, both of whom had been integral members of Valentino’s team for over a decade. The company has also ventured into the world of fragrances, collaborating first with Procter and Gamble and later with Puig since 2010.

Valentino has a remarkable portfolio of fragrances, boasting a total of 47 perfumes in our fragrance base. The first fragrance was launched in 1978, and the latest addition is from 2023. The brand has collaborated with renowned perfumers such as Givaudan, Antoine Lie, Cecile Matton, Nadege le Garlantezec, Jacques Huclier, Amandine Clerc-Marie, Honorine Blanc, Ilias Ermenidis, Francoise Caron, Antoine Maisondieu, Guillaume Flavigny, Nicolas Beaulieu, Jean-Christophe Hérault, Alberto Morillas, Olivier Cresp, Alexis Dadier, Hamid Merati-Kashani, Daphné Bugey, Fabrice Pellegrin, Aurelien Guichard, Sonia Constant, Olivier Pescheux, Julien Rasquinet, Olivier Polge, IFF, Edouard Flechier, Daniela (Roche) Andrier, and Harry Fremont.
