Valentino is a deluxe tribute to one of the most influential designers of our time. Since the debut of his line in 1960, Valentino has outfitted some of the world's most glamorous and trend-setting women, including Jackie Kennedy, Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, Princess Diana, and Sharon Stone. This two-language edition (Italian and English) pays tribute to the fine craftsmanship and detail work of the Valentino line, while celebrating the critical role it has played in the fashion world for the past forty years.

Remarkable Design,
By A Customer
This review is from: Valentino (Hardcover)
I absolutely love this. There are tons of fashion books out there, but this one really fits because it is, in and of itself, a remarkable feat of design. A book this beautiful, on a designer this important, is sure to become a collector's item.

Great photos but pricey,
By A Customer
This review is from: Valentino (Hardcover)
This boxed set features three items. A book full of photos of Valentino's work. This book is fabulous but it could have more items featured. The next book is just photos of celebrities wearing Valentino, I wish it had text. Then there is a newspaper with photos of celebrities wearing Valentino at different social gatherings. For the amount of money this book does not live up to standards but as for appearance, it is quality. A great amount of detail went in to packaging this boxed set. This is a great conversation piece and is worth a gander.
