The Most Dramatic Exits Ever
Valentino retires
After 45 years as a designer, Valentino retired in high style. First was the epic three-day, $20-million party in Rome including an exhibition of his best designs, a gala dinner, and a fashion show for 1000 special guests. Next came his final haute-couture runway show in Paris featuring Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer and Karolina Kurkova. And lastly, a documentary capturing the final two years of his career, Valentino: The Last Emperor, debuted at the Venice International Film Festival.
