Valentino - available at 18 stores *

Since its inception, Valentino has stood as one of the pillars of the internationally renowned Italian fashion scene. Founded by famed designer Valentino Garavani in the early 1960s, Valentino designs have earned the respect and admiration of many celebrities including Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Audrey Hepburn and Oprah Winfrey.

Valentino suits demand respect and Valentino dresses are the very embodiment of haute couture. The fashion house has recently expanded into fragrance, handbags and other accessories. The elegance and subtle refinement present in other Valentino designs have carried over gracefully to the house’s new endeavors.

As a final masterstroke, Valentino has divided its womenswear into three separate lines, Valentino Pret-a-Porter, Valentino Roma and R.E.D Valentino. The resulting catalogue has a depth to which few other designers can lay claim.
