Valentino Remembered by Paltrow and Peers After 93-Year Legacy Ends
Gwyneth Paltrow and Cindy Crawford joined numerous stars in honoring Valentino Garavani, the legendary Italian fashion designer who died at 93 in Rome. Paltrow recalled him as a man who loved beauty, family, and a mischievous nudge to wear mascara, marking the end of an era; he dressed her for the Met Gala and her wedding to Brad Falchuk. Crawford posted tributes on Instagram, and Valentino’s foundation announced his passing with a funeral set for January 23 in Rome. Across decades, the designer counted clients like Jackie Kennedy and stars such as Sharon Stone, Nicole Kidman, Barbra Streisand, Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor and Monica Vitti among his celebrated roster.
