What’s the difference between Valentino Garavani and Mario Valentino?
The difference between Valentino Garavani and Mario Valentino is that they are two distinct designers who are not affiliated with each other. Valentino Garavani founded the Italian luxury fashion house of Valentino in Rome in 1960 with his longtime professional and personal partner Giancarlo Giammetti. Mario Valentino established his eponymous brand, Mario Valentino, in Naples, Italy, in 1952.
