As of September, Valentino will open the doors to his famous Château Wideville in Paris, to the fashion students interested in learning more about his work. The designer personally put together a showcase of more than ten thousand sketches, designed over his forty-year career, as well as fashion editorials and many pictures that can now be an inspiration to the young.
* Even though the showcase is opened for public, you need to make an appointment before planning on stopping by. Valentino spends most of his time in the château and does not want to be seen by the visitors, who should be making appointments only for the day the designer is not expected there. Crazy? No, very generous of him.
