If you'd like to get up close and personal with some serious couture, why not take a trip to the Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane and catch the Valentino Retrospective: Past/Present/Future.

Gowns worn by celebrities including Cate Blanchett, Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis are also included in the exhibition. If you were a fan of the documentary Valentino: The Last Emperor you'll remember that each gown is painstakingly sewn by hand, making viewing these dresses up close and personal ultra special.
