Assouline Valentino Rosso Coffee Table Book

Featuring graphically shot, museum-style photographs of 180 of Valentino’s most iconic dresses and accessories, from legendary silk ball gowns and haute couture chiffon creations to Nappa calfskin “Rockstud” slingbacks and logo buckle belts with antique brass finishes. All about Valentino's association with the color red, with photos of red pieces that takes readers through the house's greatest hits. Very graphically spare and powerful.
