To have a colour named after you is one of the highest accolades in fashion. Valentino Garavani is one such icon.

Since the founding of the House of Valentino in 1950s Rome, Garavani has been celebrated for the desirability of his designs. His stunning gowns in his signature Valentino Red have been sought after by the jet set for over half a century, and still signify the very epitome of red carpet glamour.

Little Book of Valentino tells the story of this most elegant of brands. Beginning with Garavani's initiation into the world of haute couture in 1950s Paris, progressing through the glittering social scene of 1970s New York and Valentino's domination of Hollywood from the 1980s to the present day, images of every dazzling era are beautifully reproduced alongside text exploring the significance of each stunning piece.

有一种颜色以你的名字命名是时尚界的最高荣誉之一。华伦天奴·加拉瓦尼（Valentino Garavani）就是如此。

自20世纪50年代在罗马创立华伦天奴品牌以来，加拉瓦尼一直以其设计的可取性而闻名于世。半个多世纪以来，他标志性的华伦天奴红色礼服一直受到时尚界的追捧，至今仍是红地毯魅力的缩影。

本书讲述了这个优雅品牌的故事。从1950年代加拉瓦尼开始进入巴黎高级时装界开始，到1970年代闪亮的纽约社交圈，再到1980年代至今对好莱坞的统治，展示了华伦天奴在每个时代的耀眼，同时附有文字探讨每件作品的意义。
