Speaking of Valentino, it first come to people’s mind is always its courtly luxury. Yes, it is never low-key, as Valentino Garavani never covered up his a little bit vulgar personal design statement “I am the person who only make clothes for the rich.” But at the same time, we have to admire his huge confidence and fearless sincerity. So it’s not difficult to see why Valentino not only needs the person who owns the ability to appreciate its products but also the one who has financial resources to do that. Look at the stars on the red carpet, and you will know its beauty is worth more than the price.
