Valentino San Francisco Symphony Gala Kickoff Event
San Francisco is getting ready for one of the most glamorous and elegant events of the year, the city’s Symphony Opening Gala, and what is the chicest way possible to celebrate? The historic fashion house opens the doors of its San Francisco’s boutique to give us a chance to discover the world of Valentino.

 There is something absolutely irresistible about fashion-meets-music. This evening fuses two loves into one, and transforms the result into great celebration. Luxury and elegance were presented in the four-story, beautifully designed boutique. 
 
Champagne glasses in hand, we walked through Valentino’s fall collection. The dominant presence of black and white, monochrome stripes and A-line silhouettes were followed by dresses in lace, silk and chiffon. all of it was created by the amazing designer duo of Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli.

 House of Valentino has been dressing gorgeous and glamorous ladies for years. It is no surprise our beautiful San Francisco has our own Val’s Gals—Allison Speer, Dede Wilsey, Barbara Brown, Komal Shah, Victoria Yeager, Kirsten Skitter, and as the party proved a few Val’s Gents —former Mayor Willie Brown, Alan Morrell, Moussa Giallo, Juan Carlos Fernandez.
Cheers to the San Francisco Symphony and Valentino Glam, two undeniable red carpet events!
