Valentino Garavani, a legendary Italian fashion designer representing the 20th century, has died at the age of 93.
According to foreign media such as the New York Times (NYT) on the 19th (local time), the Valentino Garavani and Giancarlo Giammetti Foundation announced that Valentino died at his home in Rome, Italy.
After establishing a company named after him in 1959, Valentino set a precedent that Italian designers could also work in the world's top-end markets.
He included the brand Valentino in the Couture Inner Circle in Paris, along with Giammetti, who was a business partner, closest colleague and lover. Amid this trend, the foundation for subsequent generations such as Armani and Versace to grow into global luxury brands has been laid.
In addition, the brand has expanded not only to clothing but also to licensing businesses such as perfumes and accessories, and has even been listed on the Milan Stock Exchange, which is unusual for a designer brand. At his fingertips, a number of dresses were born that made celebrities shine.
The cream dress worn by Jacqueline Kennedy at her wedding to Aristotle Onasis in 1968, the suit worn by Empress Para Palabi during the Iranian Revolution in 1979, and the dress worn by first lady Bernadette Chirac during French President Jacques Chirac's oath of office in 1995 were all made by Valentino's hands.
The dress worn by Elizabeth Taylor at the Rome premiere of the 1960 film "Spartacus," the dress worn by Julia Roberts when she won the Academy Award for Best Actress in 2001, and the dress worn by Cate Blanchett when she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2005 are also Valentino's works.
