Italian fashion house Valentino was founded during the peak of Roman style in the 1960s. Valentino's quick rise to prominence is no suprise as it defined clean-cut femininity and red-carpet glamour, dressing the likes of style icons Elizabeth Taylor and Jackie Kennedy. Now under the direction of designers Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli, the label's gowns, clothing and high jewellery continue to make a statement in the world of fashion.
