\n\t\t\t\tThe Uffizi Galleries, along with the Museum of Fashion and
\nCostume at Palazzo Pitti, are also paying homage to Valentino
\nGaravani, a “timeless master,” an “absolute protagonist of
\nItalian and international fashion.”
\nThe Galleries posted two photos of the dresses on display at the
\nFashion Museum on social media, illustrating his work “through
\nan iconic motif, the polka dot.

\n\t\t\t\t“An ornament that is never decorative in an accessory sense, but
\nalways balanced, structural, which Valentino knew how to
\ntransform into an expressive tool, into rhythm, lightness, and
\nmeasure,” according to the post accompanying the images.

\n\t\t\t\t“Valentino’s works reflect a vision of elegance founded on
\nformal balance, clarity of line, and timeless beauty; his is a
\nlanguage that transcends the ages and continues to speak to the
\npresent and the future.”
