Carmen, known for his elegant eveningwear, has also built a following for his sophisticated swimwear line which will also be presented.  His collections are available through Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale's, Nordstrom's, Bergdorf Goodman, and Victoria's Secret among countless specialty stores nationally and internationally.  TIME Magazine stood up and took notice of Carmen after his fall 2005 collection in a feature story saying "While other designers seek to shock, Valvo's creations shine in the marketplace." His label also appears on fine furs, sunglasses / eyewear, and home decor.  

Along the way, his designs have ended up on some of the World's most sophisticated, talented, and glamorous women. From HRH Princess Madeleine of Sweden, Queen Latifah, Beyonce, Katie Couric, Leona Lewis, Katy Perry, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Vanessa Williams, Kate Winslet, Eva Longoria, Taylor Swift, and Mary J. Blige, to fashionable films and television shows such as Sex and the City II, Desperate Housewives, and the upcoming remake of Arthur.  Carmen has proven to be a dedicated scholar of his craft, carefully honing his skills to master the fine art of cutting and draping fabric to enhance the female physique so that every customer feels like a star on the red carpet when they walk into a room wearing one of his creations.

This collection is presented in part through the generosity of NASDAQ, MCM Worldwide, Swimwear Anywhere, along with the talents of hair stylist, Ted Gibson and make-up artist Romero Jennings for MAC Cosmetics.
