About:

Matt Tyrnauer, longtime Vanity Fair editor and writer, takes on haute couture icon Valentino, a man whose fabulous gowns have graced the bodies of the world’s most glamorous women for nearly five decades. The film was shot over two years—in Paris, Rome, London, NY, Gstaad, and aboard Valentino’s yacht—during a period when rumors of the designer’s retirement were swirling about him and partner Giancarlo Giammetti. The filmmaker had extraordinary access to these men, partners in both business and life, whose arguments over the need for more ruffles or the appropriateness of sand dunes for a runway show are inevitably reduced to the intimacy and warmth that are the bedrock of their relationship.

96 mins; in English, Italian & French with English subtitles.
