Valentino is an Italian fashion brand which was founded in 1960 by Valentino Garavani, who has been retired from fashion in January 2008 by presenting the last haute couture fashion show in Paris. He was considered as a reputable Italian designer in 1960s and received the Neiman Marcus Fashion Award in 1963, the fashion award that is equivalent with Oscar Award. He had been designing for many famous people around the world, including Princess Margaret, Queen Paola of Belgium, Pincess Diana, Jacqueline Kennedy, Julia Roberts, Elizabeth Taylor, Veruschka, and Gloria Guinness. He is best known for his perfectionism and creativity in using volume, line, bows, flounces and textures that add the detail to the shape of his collections. Valentino’s work is timeless, Christian Biecher, the architect of one of Valentino’s exhibition in Singapore, said. Valentino was able to work on his aesthetic obsessions and create fashion that is never being “out of fashion”.
