Valentino Virtual Museum




What on earth is a virtual museum? According to Giancarlo Giammetti, Valentino Garavani's long-time business partner, "Animated galleries show a life's work, and hundreds of key dresses have been photographed revolving 360 degrees to show every line and stitch. One click on the dress and the user can discover its history—who wore it, where, and when. Five thousand documents, photos, and 190 videos make up the Museum's database."

In a previous post, I raved about the gorgeous movie, "Valentino: The Last Emporer." I was struck dumb by the art and genius behind Valentino's exquisite designs. Now I can view his creations via my computer. Go here to read more about this unique museum.
