I can't believe what they did to Alessandra Facchinetti. She didn't know she was being replaced! She knew it by the press, it is quite miserable for the team in Valentino. I mean, they planned everything on her back. Her collections for Valentino were quite good, it wasn't necessary to make such a scandal.
I hope Alessandra finds a better job in a more respectable brand.
What Alessandra said:
“It was with deep regret that I learnt from the press that I would no longer be working with Valentino. This news came as a great surprise since the company’s top management has not yet seen fit to inform me of the above.
“I would like to thank Valentino S.p.A. for showing their appreciation of my “creative contribution and my sophisticated talent,” although I deeply regret the fact that this talent and contribution do not seem to have been adequately acknowledged.
“I find it extremely sad that a brand label of the caliber of Valentino, which has made history in the world of fashion, has been the subject of rumors for the past two weeks.
“Despite everything that has happened, I sincerely feel that this experience has empowered me because I know that my work has been deeply appreciated throughout the world. I would like to thank all my co-workers and all those people who have shown me both loyalty and affection.”
