Arrivederci Valentino

Wednesday was the final fashion show of the legendary fashion designer Valentino. After a 45 year career, he chose to return to his roots and city that birthed his fashion career, Paris. The collection was stunning, you can see all the gorg pieces on Style.com. Here is one of my fav's... Arrivederci does not translate to goodbye. Literally, it means goodbye until I see you again. When in Rome, tradition says your final stop must be at the Trevi Fountain. You stand with your back to the fountain and throw a coin over your shoulder while saying Arrivederci!!! to ensure your return. Arrivederci Valentino, I look forward to seeing how you inspire the fashion designers of tomorrow.
