Valentino Garavani and My little black dress

Valentino is the master of female elegance, present in the french boutique My little Black dress from the very first season.
The “My little black dress” concept was met with great enthusiasm by the fashion designer.

Valentino’s dresses are synonymous with refinement, femininity and elegance. A woman is sublimated in one of his black dresses, highlighting the best of her!

For the autumn-winter collection 2010, Valentino has added a “Rock” edge to his creations.
Here we find t-shirts with tulle, tulle dresses to wear with a leather jacket. His range has extended to younger, more “fun” customers.

The prices on this autumn – winter 2010 collection are more accessible.

The bow remains Valentino’s ever-present signature style.
