Roman born Giambattista Valli launched his eponymous brand in 2005, heralding his first ready- to-wear show in Paris where he had moved from Italy to realise his everlasting dream of creating a true “Maison”, after experiences at Roberto Capucci, Fendi and as Creative Director of Emanuel Ungaro. 

Giambattista Valli’s approach and meaning to luxury and beauty attracted a universe of young, modern and international generation of highly glamorous and sophisticated women from around the globe. Earning him a Star Honoree Award from Fashion Group International in 2011 in New York and Best Designer of the Year Awards from Elle China in 2013 and from Marie Claire Spain in 2015.

From 2008 to 2017 he was Creative Director of Moncler Gamme Rouge, building a new language of refined activewear for the brand and expanding the horizons for the use of women’s puffer jackets.

In July 2011 Giambattista Valli showed his first Couture collection and was accepted as an Official Member of the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture. The launch of Giamba – a new, younger sister ready-to-wear line – followed in 2014.

The Maison’s headquarters is now established in a historic building located on Rue Boissy d’Anglas which also houses its main store entirely dedicated to ready-to wear collections, leather goods and accessories including shoes, bags and jewelry.
