Valentino resigns
This week, during the height of Paris Fashion Week, 75-year-old Valentino Garavani announced that he was resigning from the world of fashion. He’s no spring chicken, but I bet it was still a shock to some and that many people will miss him. He had this to say:
“Last July, in Rome, I celebrated my 45th Anniversary in Fashion. It was a moment of infinite magic and tremendous joy, and I cannot fully express with words how deeply moved I was by the occasion. I received an outpouring of good wishes from all over the world, which brought me great satisfaction. I was very touched that friends-old and new-traveled from far reaches to be a part of the Festivities,” Valentino said in an official press statement.
“It was a moment that will be impossible to repeat. And so, at this time, I have decided that is the perfect moment to say adieu to the world of fashion.”
