Palazzo Avino x Valentino

Article by Miguel Sagaz.

Palazzo Avino, a luxury hotel nestled in the picturesque town of Ravello on the Amalfi Coast, is collaborating with the iconic fashion brand Valentino. The collaboration unveils the Escape 2023 collection, featuring a range of stunning designs by Valentino.

With Palazzo Avino’s breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea and Valentino’s signature style, this collaboration is a match made in heaven for fashion and travel enthusiasts alike.

For Mariella Avino, Managing Director and Co-owner of Palazzo Avino being able to work with such an iconic brand, part of the Italian history and culture was “an inspiration and a triumph of beauty. Valentino Escape in Ravello is a beauty dream.”

“I strongly believe in the heritage of the history of a journey (a place, a building, anything.) and I constantly strive in working on our roots trying to collect as much as I can about our evolution through the years.”

In her own words “I strongly believe in the heritage of the history of a journey (a place, a building, anything.) and I constantly strive in working on our roots trying to collect as much as I can about our evolution through the years.”

This collaboration is all about Escaping The Ordinary, a way of dreaming, of leaving behind what is known and encountering something new. 

For Mariella, her way to escape the ordinary relies on the simplicity of collecting objects that inspire her and make her smile. “I love collecting beauty in antique jewelry pieces, vintage design pieces, and ceramics. I love the scouting part and it is my way to escape the ordinary and enter a lost-in-time world.”

This collaboration also features a beach club takeover. Valentino shades, lounge chairs, and beach umbrellas add to the elegance and casual sophistication of the place.

From June to August 2023, visitors and fashion lovers alike can purchase the capsule collection through a special pop-up.

“Growing up in an Italian family when talking about fashion, Valentino was the brand, was the designer, and is linked to Italian history so deeply, and I could not think of a better partner to align our hotel with.”

The collaboration between Mariella Avino and Maison Valentino is a true statement of the power of partnerships and the magic that can happen when two creative minds join forces. Mariella’s passion for luxury hospitality and Valentino’s iconic designs have come together in a way that is unparalleled.

The Escape 2023 collection is not just a showcase of exquisite fashion, but a celebration of the beauty of the Amalfi Coast and the elegance of Palazzo Avino.

“Palazzo Avino is a magical place, a destination in itself. It is a XII-century palace perfectly encapsulated in Ravello and the Amalfi Coast beauty. I work constantly in this direction: to inspire the guests on the real possibility of enhancing a place full of history, with strong roots in the past, looking at the future with new inspiring touches, but true to our path. I think Valentino perfectly manages this same approach.”
Mariella and Valentino have shown us that when we work together we can create something that is greater than the sum of its parts, and this is definitely worth taking a trip to Italy to experience.
