You no more need to visit elsewhere to shop for your favorite Valentino goods! Thanks to Reliance Brands Limited which has partnered with the marquee to bring to India the most established Italian Maison de Couture. Yes, that’s right!
The long-term partnership will entail the opening of the brand’s first boutique in Delhi, followed by a flagship store in Mumbai. While the debut store is set to open this year, the flagship will follow in the months to come. Commenting on the collaboration, Darshan Mehta, MD of Reliance Brands Limited said,
“Valentino needs no introduction in India. Founded by the legendary Italian fashion designer Valentino Garavani and Giancarlo Giammetti, Valentino has gone through impactful creative evolution under the current Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccioli and CEO Jacopo Venturini heralding the brand into contemporary luxury while leveraging its heritage as the most established Italian Maison de Couture.”
Remarking further, Jacopo Venturini, CEO of Maison Valentino added, “We are pleased to join forces with India’s leader in luxury retail, Reliance Brands Limited (RBL), and proud to work together to expand our shared vision and voice in this important market, rife with new opportunities. The upcoming store opening represents a significant step in Valentino’s global strategy, and we are honored to be part of the country’s growing retail market, allowing the company and the Valentino Community to grow in a solid way, according to our values and brand culture.”
Valentino’s Delhi boutique will sit on 162 sqm in DLF Emporio and will feature the women’s collection and a limited range of men’s accessories. On the other hand, the flagship in Mumbai will boast a complete range of womenswear, menswear, footwear, and Valentino Garavani accessories of the brand that include shoes, bags, small leather goods, eyewear, scarves, ties, and fragrances.
