Valentino Garavani’s passion for beauty extends beyond couture into the art of hosting, where each meal is a carefully orchestrated experience. As André Leon Talley notes, Valentino approaches entertaining with the same elegance and creativity that defined his legendary fashion career. Whether it’s an intimate dinner or a lavish luncheon, his attention to detail transforms each gathering into a celebration of style and warmth.

Photographed by Oberto Gili, this book offers a glimpse into Valentino’s exquisite homes around the world—from his London townhouse to his chalet in Gstaad and his yacht, T.M. Blue One. Each setting reflects a unique character, with carefully curated tableware, flowers, and menus that embody the spirit of each residence. The crown jewel, his beloved Château de Wideville near Paris, is a showcase of antique china and refined Italian cuisine.

Though retired from fashion since 2008, Valentino remains a master of refinement. His enduring love for beautiful objects, gracious hospitality, and the joy of sharing with friends continues to define his lifestyle—whether hosting thirty guests or enjoying a quiet meal alone. As he says, “Entertaining thirty or one is the same; the food has to be on a beautiful plate.”

Great book
Format: Paperback
This is very similar to Panel Two, which I bought because of certain comic book writers that I enjoyed. Panel One is basically the same, which provide examples and even so "how to's" and "why's that" type of information.

I love this book. If you are interested in how comics are made do yourself a favor. Also pick up the WIll Eisner textbook trilogy.

Seeing the Creative Process for Graphic Novels
Format: Paperback
This is a fascinating look at the early creative processes writers do when they make scripts for graphic novels. The only down side to this book is it doesn't show any comparison between the scripts and the final product. I suppose that's part of the fun of this book is that you have to imagine the graphics just like the original artists did.

I liked it
Format: Paperback
Pretty good if you want to see varied styles of writing comic book scripts. SOme are pretty off the wall, but will help you find your own style.
