Valentino Continues Support of the Rubell Museum in Miami
Fashion and art are never more aligned than during Art Basel week in Miami, and Valentino was just one of the many major European brands taking up residence in Florida during the week. Valentino continued its support of the Rubell Museum with its second installation at the Miami museum this Art Basel, this time showcasing their Party Collection. Over Dec. 2 and 3, The Collection was set up in the Rubell garden and one of the galleries and was viewable to guests during private appointments. The Rubell and Valentino partnership was further marked by a cocktail party thrown during Art Basel, with guests including Lori Harvey and Winston Duke.
The Party Collection was originally on display in the U.S. at Fotografiska in New York, in November, as an immersive experience before making its way to Miami. The collection is meant as a celebration of a return to life after the early shutdowns of the pandemic, and an anticipation of festive dressing up for the approaching holiday season. Naturally the items include ??fruit-shaped embroidery, sequins, feathers, ribbons and tweed.
