Valentino Garavani, the talented fashion designer from Italy, is renowned not only for his exceptional creativity in high-class fashion designs but also for his magnificent villas. Among them, the villa in Paris stands out as a highly esteemed architectural masterpiece in terms of aesthetics.

Located in the luminous capital city of Paris, the villa named Chateau de Wideville is one of the most iconic structures in Valentino’s collection of opulent residences. Originally built and completed in the 17th century, the estate was initially owned by Monsieur Louis XIII, the Treasurer of Finances in Paris at the time. Situated in the outskirts of Paris, this lavish estate encompasses a main building with no less than 8 bedrooms and features a three-story “dovecote” design.

Valentino officially acquired ownership of this unique villa in 1995. Soon after, the renowned architect Henri Samual undertook the renovation and embellishment of Chateau de Wideville. However, it is evident that each detail of this “dovecote” shaped mansion carries Valentino’s unmistakable touch. Furthermore, the fusion of Asian and Italian inspirations creates a distinct highlight for the overall architecture. Souvenirs from his trip to China 20 years ago are thoughtfully arranged and displayed, adding to the charm of the place.

Among all of Valentino’s luxurious villas around the world, from Rome, Switzerland, New York to London, this ancient and venerable villa holds a special place in his heart. It is where he frequently retreats to after retiring from his illustrious career.

Despite the grandeur apparent in the overall architecture of the house, the designer has also invested in a relaxing, intimate, and modest space. This is the garden he named “Winter,” with an Eastern-inspired architectural style featuring porcelain and meticulously cared-for green lawns adorned with rose bushes.
