The Valentino Garavani Virtual Museum Has Arrived

And they’re off. Valentino Garavani and his partner Giancarlo Giammetti have officially launched their online virtual museum. Valentino is one of the most recognizable and most iconic names in fashion. Being granted the opportunity to view some of his creations – let alone all of them – is something of a wish come true. Fashion fans young and old appreciate vintage fashion and Valentino has an amazing collection of vintage gowns. For years, if it weren’t for
the select celebs that are permitted to wear these amazing pieces of history for red carpet events and premieres, history books were our only source, but now Valentino is bringing an opportunity to the world that simply did not exist prior.

To appreciate vintage fashion is to appreciate fashion because any good fashionista knows, fashion repeats itself just as history does – which grants us the opportunity to learn and press forward. Valentino and his partner Giancarlo Giammetti have changed fashion history and opened a whole new set of doors for the commoners of the fashion world.

Today is the official launch date of the virtual museum and with a simple download you will be inside of the ultimate fashion vault. As technology and fashion aren’t necessarily hand-in-hand, you can sit through a briefing of how the navigation of the site works – and when I say navigation, I don’t mean
map-reading, I mean steering and plotting. This site works similar to a video game where you walk and look around using your controller. However, this site
is obviously using a mouse or track pad (for laptop users). Once you have mastered navigation and move on to exploring any of the seven rooms, you will witness something amazing; all dresses are able to rotate 360 degrees while at the same time give you a pop-up list of images including original sketches, red carpet moments, and magazine spreads.

This site is absolutely amazing to say the least. All morning I have been reading what other fashion writers have had to say, and the general consensus is captivating, entrancing, and meet your deadlines before you start exploring in the world of Valentino, otherwise your day will have faded away, only accomplishing your personal requirements.
