An American designer from the 1930-50s, Valentina could cut a dress with the complexity of a Vionnet and the simplicity of American sportswear
And sculpt a structural piece as modern as Francisco Costa's Calvin Klein.
The craftsmanship of her work gives voice to truly innovative American design
Images from the exhibition: Valentina: American Couture and the Cult of Celebrity at the MCNY in 2009.
