Valentino was founded in Rome in 1960 by Valentino Garavani and became known for couture, Valentino red and refined evening wear. Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli led the house together from 2008, and Piccioli alone from 2016 to 2024. The menswear of the 2010s combined camouflage, geometric knitwear, sportswear and sharp tailoring. Alessandro Michele has been creative director since 2024.

The AKAIBU archive holds Valentino menswear including a Fall Winter 2014 geometric cashmere knit sweater and pink nylon puffer track pants.

Valentino garments carry the season on the inner label and are made in Italy. We state the season in each listing when it can be confirmed.

Every piece in this collection is examined and authenticated in house in Vienna before it is listed. We ship worldwide with tracked delivery, and our showroom in Vienna can be visited by appointment. If you own Valentino pieces you would like to sell, see Consign with AKAIBU. If you are looking for a specific piece that is not listed, our Sourcing service can search for it.
