Valentino The Beginning
Valentino's "The Beginning" Haute Couture show, a landmark event held on July 8, 2022, at the iconic Piazza di Spagna (Spanish Steps) in Rome. This spectacular presentation marked a triumphant return to the city's historic heart, celebrating the brand's founding in Rome in 1959 by Valentino Garavani and Giancarlo Giammetti. Directed by Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccioli, the show transformed the sun-drenched steps into a dramatic runway at dusk, with models zig-zagging down in a procession of opulent gowns and suits, evoking the eternal city's layered splendor—blending ancient mosaics, sacred ruins, and contemporary vibrancy.
