I hope people will say, 'Mr. Valentino, he did something for fashion, no?'

I always enjoyed myself a lot in pre-school.

I didn’t like the ’80s at all; it was a vulgar moment of fashion.

The great fights with your strongest rivals are always the biggest motivation. When you win easily it’s not the same taste.

An evening dress that reveals a woman’s ankles while walking is the most disgusting thing I have ever seen.

It is a big problem and so I don’t know for sure if I say yes or no to Ferrari.

There are only three things I can do – make a dress, decorate a house, and entertain people.

I love my beauty. It’s not my fault.

Elegance is the balance between PROPORTION, EMOTION & SURPRISE.

When I entertain at home, I take time and pleasure in the small details that make all the difference. Entertaining is about giving to people and sharing with them.
