Thats so kind of you to say thank you. I really do take referencing very seriously. When my channel began I would purposely have the source on screen to show where the information came from, but people preferred a more visual style (totally get it) so I started taking different accounts. To me having a source is so important
i just found your channel within the last month and i just want to say i am obsessed with your videos! i love fashion and getting to learn about the history of it in a way that is fun and enjoyable is so much better than reading a boring article! i hope you have an amazing day!
I don't think people realize just how many famous (or somewhat famous) designers have designed flight attendant uniforms. Valentino for TWA, Emilio Pucci and Roy Halston (Braniff Airlines), Oleg Cassini (TWA), Coco Chanel and Pierre Cardin (Olympic Airways), Christian Dior, and Cristóbal Balenciaga (Air France), and Yves Saint Laurent (Qantas), among dozens of others. And who could miss Vivienne Westwood's iconic red Virgin Atlantic uniforms. You could do an entire topic on just airline uniforms!
If anyone is interested, you can Google Fashion in Flight: A history of Airline Uniform Design at the SFO museum and can scroll through all the designer creations for different airlines. I actually remember some of them, and I still wonder how they actually were able to work in others.
@@understitchYT I included Halston (Braniff) in my comment 😉. They also have a photo of Valentino's uniform for TWA on SFO museums website about past uniforms
Great video as always! In regards to having one too many links (and hurting your channel) I recommend leaving a singular link to a Google doc in which you can have all the links for the Valentino sources! That way it can help minimise the damage on your channel, but also be a resource for those curious about your sources 😁
What do you mean access to naughty people? 😮 You can actually lock it (in the settings) from being edited by anyone except you, by the way @@understitchYT
I was just craving an understitch video about Valentino, such a rich brand. I love the history element you bring to fashion research, truly doing a service for all fashion lovers. Kids are so lucky to have these resources available in such a presentable way. Never stop providing these resources it’s so enriching to have documentaries about each brand available for free. And it’s crazy to see the monopoly that Paris had on fashion back in the day. But also the opportunity that it opens up elsewhere when you leverage local abilities I think we still see aspects of that today with many foreign brands popping up.
Thank you so so much, thats really the main ethos of the channel, to bring that -very expensive to research- information to everyone for free. Its why my Patreon will only ever promise early access and only videos so that only those who can afford to will consider supporting in a more direct way and those that cant dont feel pressured to. I just want information available to those who need and want it 🤍
❤ Valentino ❤ wow what an amazing video for his amazing story! Together with Giorgio Armani, Gianni Versace and Miuccia Prada, he belongs to the Alta Moda Olympus in Italy! I’m truly excited to see what Alessandro Michele will bring to the brand.
If you want any of the books I used just lmk, the script is highlighted by section from which book I get each bit of information and I usually keep all the quotes even. I can’t distribute books for free but if you want a section, lmk 🤍
Commenting in advance to overcome the links hurdle which is extremely generous of you to provide. Thank you for always providing the most exquisitely researched and balanced history content 🙏 your channel is a beacon.
Thank you for these films. The quality is wonderful and I really appreciate how comprehensive you are! I really enjoyed the one on Schiaparelli and this one is great too!
I love your videos so much especially the documentary series! You choose interesting brands and subjects to talk about and you have become one of my favorite channels!
This video has made me more patient with the current direction at Valentino - I was a fan of Pierpaolo but better understand now how Alessandro may develop….if he’s given space to do it (and a side note that 60s Valentino is so timelessly beautiful. Love his respectful take on dressing women)
That's wonderful to know that there was a level of freedom for each to add to the concept as the clothing developed. The drawing being translated to the modelisation being fluid is quite lovely: and must have allowed for innovations organically.
if I may be bold, I believe that both Valentino and Schiaparelli are the only Legacy houses who have managed to revitalize, reinvigorate, or reintroduce their houses onto the much much modern times successfully, something that Gucci, Balenciaga, and Chanel have failed to do so.
If I may be italic, Valentino is truly the only one. All the others have changed CD or have had a relaunch, Valentino, as far as Im aware, is the only one thats had the same designer, mostly the same team, mostly the same branding, throughout all the history. In a way it made this video hard to write 😅
@@understitchYT if I maybe underlined jk, yeah thats true as well I considered this renaissance of both brands somewhat two sides of the same coins and honestly I’m not bad about it because comparing to the alternative I would rather wear bespoke and timeless pieces than monograms all over my outfits
thank you for your amazing work in creating these videos! theyve given me so much knowledge and insight i wouldnt have had otherwise. just wondering, would you ever consider making a vid about the rise of uniqlo? xx
Thanks for your extensive research. I learned so much. It was interesting to learn that Valentino was very involved in each of his licensing deals. Also interesting that he saw a big drop in revenue when he pulled back and discontinued many of these licensing deals. I forgot about the Oliver label. I vaguely remember seeing the ads for this in fashion magazines back in the day. The new era under Alessandro will be interesting. Will he manage to keep the classic Valentino customers or will he chase them away because he turned the brand into Valentucci/Vucci. We shall see🤔....
Firstly Im glad you enjoyed the video, and secondly, his involvement in all the licenses is incredible, unheard of really, such an enormous amount of work for one person. I cant wait to see what AM does
Who could be more deserving of your fine attention than Mr Valentino and his gorgeous couture? You really did right by him @understitch. What a tragedy that the reigns have been handed over to Michele!
I worked with Mr Valentino for several years on the makeup team for his couture and pret e porter collections right up to his final and magical collection. Truly blessed to have been part of his history and legacy
@@understitchYT He was focused and passionate about creating beauty and it's details. He was indeed graceful and gracious even though he was an empire. Definitely one of the last of the greats
I absolutely love your content this is so educational for the fashion enthusiasts and I am obsessed.. maybeee in the near future a video of D&G or maybe Giorgio Armani🤔 anyways I hope you have a wonderful day :)
Wow! Nehellenia really nailed the look on Drag Race Global All Stars Snatch Game of Love last night. They are greatly underestimating Nehellenia. I hope she can last long enough to make them eat crow. I really like her. Kitty Scott-Claus tarnished herself with her unkind words and attitude.
On Paramount Plus. All other Drag Race international franchises streaming on WOW Presents Plus. Rare that two weeks go by without a new episode or two from somewhere in the world. Nearly 20 countries have their own RuPaul's Drag Race franchises.
I know next to nothing about fashion but I enjoyed this video all the way through. I recently saw a rather under-referenced video about ‘the two Valentinos’ (V logo vs. V logo fights) and that would also be a good subject to follow this video with. (Actually I’m sure that’s why the Great Algorithm brought this video to me …)
I think youre talking about Bliss’ video. Actually he is a very well read person on fashion, I would trust what he says personally. He may not include all his references (and I dont too tbh) but he is certainly knowledgeable and reliable 🤍
I would love to but Im already burning the candle trying to get this many videos out. I have considered many many times to cut back to one video a month
If you want to give links why don't you start your own blog or website? You can write as much as you like, embed every video there and give the address in the video description, sounds far simpler.
It’s an incredible amount of work. I tried once but Im already pulling my hair out trying to get this much done. Until I can have a team that I can employ on loss leaders like that, then Im giving probably more than is wise already 🤍
At the height of Years of lead (Anni di piombo) in Italy from mid to late 70's many high profiled/wealthy Italians were scared of being kidnapped for ransom. But Valentino insisted of being chauffeured around Rome in his shiny, red Mercedes limo.
@@understitchYT Carla Bruni has talked about her family leaving Italy due to fear of the Red Brigades. I was born in Rome in the 70's and lived there on and off until 2010. It was an observation among people living in Rome seeing his red limo going back and forwards from his Appia Antica home to central Rome. My uncle was amused that Valentino didn't care.
ah yes… the last emperor, mr valentino himself… i will NEVER tire of just watching his red dresses parading on the runway. he along with gianni versace were the ones who understood the female form in its purest form.. did you see that VALENTINO is suing MARIO valentino on the grounds that they were driving business away from them???
I think with their history its going to need a lot of time to produce. I either need to cut to one video a month or do it like the McQueen video and take a year to make it 😅
I dont usually cover topics in that way. I suppose Im more of a biographer than a video essayist. However, wars have come up in several videos. WW2 (Chanel, Balenciaga and the best on was Schiaparelli) and Spanish Civil War / Revolution (Balenciaga, Paco Rabanne)
@@understitchYT yes war is such a big part of fashion. A multiple designers and multiple brands have been involved in some way shape or form even to this day.
like a lot of "designer brands Greed , cheap cloth Greed and a arrogant attitude... People just "See it's Over-Priced cloth . w Label on it... even Zara are feeling the pain - crappy cloth .
The shame of that is even if someone wanted to produce only the finest cloths today its not possible. The capable mills dont exist today. I have a Gieves and Hawkes jacket from 2012 and wanted to get matching trousers and the person in the store had to tell me its impossible because fabric like that doesnt exist any more. This is only 2012. Imagine the fabrics pre-war. Its so sad its all gone
@@understitchYT yea . those English mills are sadly gone . Moxon , Crombie, etc David Saxby is an encyclopaedia on Mills , factories and Cloth. it's all Greed . Shame
@@understitchYT her first couture collection is one of my top 10 collections of all times those big beautiful bubble skirts she would have took that house far. And then we never saw her again by the way she comes from Tom Ford and Gucci

Im so happy to read this tysm 🤍🤍
Same here - each new upload gets my full attention - this content is to be savoured
I agree. All these videos are fun and educational ❤
I don't think people realize just how many famous (or somewhat famous) designers have designed flight attendant uniforms. Valentino for TWA, Emilio Pucci and Roy Halston (Braniff Airlines), Oleg Cassini (TWA), Coco Chanel and Pierre Cardin (Olympic Airways), Christian Dior, and Cristóbal Balenciaga (Air France), and Yves Saint Laurent (Qantas), among dozens of others.

So, the hardships befalling on all of us didn't hit you? Lucky bitch!
Great video as always! In regards to having one too many links (and hurting your channel) I recommend leaving a singular link to a Google doc in which you can have all the links for the Valentino sources! That way it can help minimise the damage on your channel, but also be a resource for those curious about your sources 😁
That can leave access to naughty people I heard and I dont want that 😅

Can't wait to finish tutoring my student and going home to the newly released Understictch video! The weather is immaculate today.
On that watch later list 🤩
Oddio che bello! I was waiting a video of yours about Valentino... Grazie davvero ❤❤❤
LOVE! King of educational fashion content x
I hope you like it
“Having so many source links hurts my channel” of course, why would TH-cam reward well researched and thoughtful commentary. Excellent material. TY.
They just want people to stay on the platform, I understand it, but it makes it hard to give you guys the full scope of the research
wake up new understitch hour long history dropped
The hour long ones Im always so proud of

@@understitchYT providing better content than most streaming services for free I couldn’t ask for more.
❤ Valentino ❤ wow what an amazing video for his amazing story! Together with Giorgio Armani, Gianni Versace and Miuccia Prada, he belongs to the Alta Moda Olympus in Italy!
I’m truly excited to see what Alessandro Michele will bring to the brand.
I cannot WAIT to see Michele’s debut! I put in a request for the show but I dont think Ill get it
I adore your channel ❤ I’m not much of a fashion person, but I love learning about the histories of these different brands.
Thats the best compliment
And just like that, the most informative Valentino video ever 👏👏👏
The video is filled with inaccuracies.
If you want to learn something you need to read more and watch less TH-cam videos…
If you want any of the books I used just lmk, the script is highlighted by section from which book I get each bit of information and I usually keep all the quotes even. I can’t distribute books for free but if you want a section, lmk 🤍

For sure with Valentino patience is the best way to look at it, Ill give Michele more collections than most before forming my own opinions
Another great watch. Thank you so much. ❤😊
Thank you too!
That's wonderful to know that there was a level of freedom for each to add to the concept as the clothing developed. The drawing being translated to the modelisation being fluid is quite lovely: and must have allowed for innovations organically.
It takes a very secure designer to allow others to improve the design
First Nehellenia's Valentino Snatch Game earlier this week, now this! What a cute coincidence. Also great video as always ofc
I was wondering if anyone else in the comments was watching Global All-stars.
Enjoyed watching this documentary and I loved the narrator's voice. Would love to watch more form this channel. Subscribed!
Oh thats so kind! Esp today Im dying of tonsillitis so Ill take any voice-based compliment 😂

Love those pictures of the man and his entourage on the streets of New York ❤️

so good as always

Late 70s - mid 80s valentino seems to be my favourite ❤❤❤
Its truly beautiful
No matter how rich his clients, they never lived with as much good taste as he did ❤

great job
Thank you 🤍
one of my highschool crushes was named "valentin" so ima eat this video UP
He sounds handsome 🥵
Thank you for your service±

Pahahahahhahah
At the height of Years of lead (Anni di piombo) in Italy from mid to late 70's many high profiled/wealthy Italians were scared of being kidnapped for ransom. But Valentino insisted of being chauffeured around Rome in his shiny, red Mercedes limo.

I was born in Rome in the 70's and lived there on and off until 2010. It was an observation among people living in Rome seeing his red limo going back and forwards from his Appia Antica home to central Rome. My uncle was amused that Valentino didn't care.
I love Valentino style, I love Yoongi, but, i cant see the connection and is driving me crazy.
I have a lot of thoughts about the misuse of Kpop stars in fashion
No "Rise and Fall" this time? Interesting...

Well try different things see what works. Do these twice a month. Just saying .best wishes😺💫✨🌟💫
I dont understand? I already post fortnightly
When are we getting a Martin Margiela video? 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I think with their history its going to need a lot of time to produce. I either need to cut to one video a month or do it like the McQueen video and take a year to make it 😅
For the algorithm

Did Valentino create what would later become _the woman in red dress_ meme? 🤯
I dont know the meme?
VALENTINO VALENTINO USED TO ROCK THAT ALL MOSCHINO, JEREMY SCOTT DONE GOT THAT GAUP SO NOW IM ROCKING VALENTINO!
Rome is a capital city, not a country...
Did I say it was a country?? What?
Is it true that the queen of Qatar bought valentino?
Yes, I believe I said that in the video 🤍
