Valentino Garavani Top #4


Valentino Garavani was born in northern Italy in 1932. He was interested in fashion from childhood. Valentino was offered apprenticeships and training from family and other designers. After getting fired from a luxe dressmaker in Paris for being carefree and holidaying too long, Valentino began to design his own clothing under his own name. In 1959, he opened his first shop in Rome’s Via Veneto. Valentino was known for his dramatic and femininity gowns that woman’s enjoyed to wear which became his signature designs. Valentino Garavani was awarded the Legion d’Honneur in 2006 from France’s President Chirac.


Valentino Garavani’s sense of style is very unique and delicate. Valentino shows his art through his fashion shows and his designers. Valentino’s clothing, dresses, purses, accessories, jewelleries, and shoes are very artistic and tends to stand out more than any other clothing because it’s a design to die for. In a crowd of fashion, Valentino’s work stands out the most out of all the designers.

I am like a freight train. Working on the details, twisting them and playing with them over the years, but always staying on the same track.
