#Italian #fashion designer #Valentino Garavani, who famously dressed Jackie Kennedy and played a key role in defining modern glamour, has passed away at the age of 93. Born in northern Italy in the early 1930s, Valentino transformed a childhood passion for fashion into one of the world's largest fashion empires. He founded the luxury fashion house Valentino on Via Condotti in Rome in 1960, and it quickly gained recognition as a leading “maison de haute couture.” Among his early achievements, Garavani designed the elegant cream lace wedding gown worn by former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy during her marriage to business tycoon Aristotle Onassis in 1968. #italianfashionicon #valentinogaravani
