OverviewValentino S.p.A. is an Italian luxury fashion house founded in 1960 by Valentino Garavani and part of Valentino Fashion Group, which in turn is owned by the State of Qatar through Mayhoola for Investments S.P.C. Since October 2008, the creative director is Pier Paolo Piccioli. Alessandra Facchinetti was Valentino's creative designer from 2007 to 2008. Valentino is headquartered in Milan, while the creative direction is in Rome. Valentino's international debut took place in 1962 in Florence, the Italian fashion capital of the time. Valentino has also specially designed wedding dresses for Elizabeth Taylor, Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Lopez, Courteney Cox, Sophie Hunter, and Princess Madeleine of Sweden. In 2020, the fashion house announced that it would no longer use alpaca wool and severed ties with Mallkini, the world's largest privately-owned alpaca farm in Peru. The move followed revelations of animal abuse within the alpaca industry. How to use suggest spritz onto pulse points.
