You can virtually visit Palazzo Mignanelli, the headquarters of the Maison, founded by Valentino Garavani and Giancarlo Giammetti. All you need to do is head to their website where you will come across the façade and rooms redesigned by New York based artist Joana Avillez. Visitors will have access to seven rooms and explore the Valentino universe. Get insights into Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccioli’s creative process by stepping into his studio, or watch movies that have inspired the house by heading to The room: MUBI x Valentino.
