This is confusing…The cute little bag in the picture above has an odd label that says it’s a Valentino, by Mario Valentino. The price it attractive. Yet it looks like Celine. And just who is this Mario??!! Is it a Valentino or not? This questions gets asked all the time in our Facebook Group. Let’s take a closer look. We are all familiar with Valentino Garavani. Their iconic Rockstud shoes are a must-have in any fashionista’s closet (and a currently on sale in several colors!). However, the bag above is by a different label. It is by Mario Valentino, a completely different designer. Both brands take their roots in Italy and go back to the middle of twentieth century. However, that’s where the similarities stop. Valentino Garavani is a luxury, coveted label with prices starting around $1000 and rising up to as much as $30K for exclusive couture pieces. Its designs are unique and signature, and can be easily spotted across the room. Valentino Garavani on Sale:Mario Valentino also makes quality accessories, with prices reaching $1000, although almost always on sale for no more than $500. And although the name on the label can seem to be deceiving, it is only half the issue with this brand. The main problem are the copy-cat designs. A Celine-looking bag with a prestigious name like Valentino, for a bargain price of $350 can seem like a great deal, but in reality it is just a gimmick with no real value. However, some of Mario Valentino’s designs are uniquely theirs and they are rather great! The bag below is one of my favorites and I wouldn’t mind rocking it no matter what the label says. I would love to see more original ideas from Mario Valentino, and perhaps than it can compete with its namesake, Valentino Garavani.

Contrary to some beliefs, the (Mario) Valentino brand is a reputable and respected brand. Established in the early 1950s by father Vincenzo, the name was changed to Mario Valentino when his son later took over the business. Initially, a leather shoe brand, MV continued in the leather goods business until the likes of Lagerfeld and Armani came on board as designers in the 70s and 80s, aided by sophisticated advertorials by photographers such as Helmut Newton and Robert Mapplethorpe. MV has never achieved a seat at the top fashion. In recent years, the situations have become further muddled, with licensees March Capital producing bags and accessories that play on the popularity of the Valentino name. But it’s important to understand where Mario Valentino stands in the fashion stakes before coming to any snobbish conclusions. Mario Valentino is, historically, a brand of note, and today makes high quality, premium products that are fun, somewhat irreverent and that you should enjoy having as a part of a dynamic and varied wardrobe. IS VALENTINO GARAVANI AND MARIO VALENTINO THE SAME?Valentino – the very name suggests pure Italian style, passion and flair. Alas, there is still some confusion in fashion circles about which Valentino fashion lovers re referring to. To clarify: The former, Valentino Garavani, is the international style icon famous for wanting to make women (and a host of stars including Audrey Hepburn and Sophia Lauren) beautiful in divine creations that include the poppy coloured Valentino red dress. The latter (although by no means lesser) Valentino, Mario is a completely different entity. Also famous for making luxury women’s clothing and accessories, MV Items – rather than rhapsodizing over the female figure in envelope-pushing asymmetry and patterning – are more inclined to a leather look and feel; a punchier, fun take on modern female fashion. In short: they are completely different companies! In answer to this question, you have to define the difference between luxury and premium; terms that – in an age of mass-market copying and the crossing of luxury and casual-wear lines in both directions – are becoming increasingly unclear. Luxury is the concern of brands such as Cartier and Hermes, the couture collection of designers making clothes that serve no purpose other than to look stunning (and perhaps to wear to a Hollywood acceptance speech or attend a royal wedding). Mario Valentino falls into the premium brand category along with Calvin Klein, DKNY and Diesel. Clothes and accessories that are very well made and that look and feel great; that knock on the door of those luxury brands like Gucci and Burberry, demanding to be respected when worn well by the discerning fashion lover.
