Gucci’s commitment for Unicef carries on.

Since 2005, over Christmas, Gucci maison delivers an accessories line in limited edition, whose part of the income goes into charity to help orphan children in the world.

Also this year, Gucci’s brand is getting ready for the realization of the charity campaign for which singer Rihanna is lending her image.

Everybody knows the feeling between the young queen of music and Gucci’s brand. As a matter of fact, Rihanna has always been showing off Gucci’s outfits, and her passion for the Italian griffe has always been declared. Not to mention the party organized by Gucci in her honour.

This mutual admiration is leading now to a collaboration for an important charity cause, with the realization of the “Tattoo Heart” campaign in December.

It’s been few months since Valentino, internationally famous designer for generations, delegated the artistic direction of his maison to young Alessandra Facchinetti.

Instead of saying goodbye to the world of fashion forever, Valentino carried on being interested to his vocation thanks to many commitments he is involved with.

After the book “Valentino.Una grande storia Italiana” (Valentino. An important Italian history) Taschen Editors, after the show at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, “Valentino, Thèmes et Variations” dedicated to him, it’s time for a cinematographic production.

“Valentino: The last Emperor”: this is the title of the movie documentary celebrating the career and the wit of the Italian designer, Valentino Gravani. The documentary has been directed by Matt Tyrnauer (journalist for Vanity Fair) and is going to be presented at the Venice show.

The movie is about Valentino, his style and elegance. The designer has been followed for two years by Matt Tyrnauer’s cameras, catching the most important moments of his professional and private life. Valentino himself said: “This is going to be a great honour for me, and an occasion to strengthen the link I have always had to the world of cinema”.
