Synonymous with decadent Italian glamour, timeless elegance, and unrestrained luxury, the revered house of Valentino has long been known for its creation of transcendent dresses. Valentino accompanies a major exhibition that presents 180 of the most iconic gowns spanning the illustrious history of Valentino.



This magnificent tome showcases striking new photography of each exhibition dress accompanied by vintage archival imagery and texts from fashion's most influential voices including a foreword by Matthew Yokobosky, senior fashion curator at the Brooklyn Museum, an Introduction by Valentino's long-time personal and business partner and founder of the Valentino fashion house, Giancarlo Giammetti, and interviews with Pier Paolo Piccolini, Valentino's creative director. Edited by Pamela Golbin, this retrospective reveals 180 spectacular dresses as never before from rare 1960s designs in luxury fabrics, cocktail dresses, to modern-day couture eveningwear, and features insightful essays and anecdotes, including a chapter "From A-Z of How A Dress is Made" which describes the intricate creative production behind each extravagant creation. Valentino Brooklyn Museum explores the creative genius behind Valentino, and this book will be a must-have for those interested in both classic and contemporary style, fashion, and glamour.
