As Valletta revisits different moments from her life, she is keen to offer quick anecdotes of the many different industry luminaries she's been privileged work with; from the photographer Peter Lindbergh ("Peter really allowed me to express myself, so if I was feeling strong, or moody, he'd let me be that person"); to Karl Lagerfeld ("I just thought Karl was so magical and interesting and witty... he knew something about everything"); to opening Tom Ford's legendary Gucci fall 1995 show ("He gave us sex back, which I think we had been missing for a bit in the '90s"). Though they trace as far back as the 14th century, leggings first became really popular back in the late 1950s, when chemist Joseph Shivers created the first Lycra pair.

The return of the miniskirt in 2023 may be attributed to Miu Miu, but it was the British fashion designer Mary Quant who pioneered the ultrashort hemline in the 1960s as a symbol of the newly liberated woman. Quant, who was known as the Mother of the Miniskirt, passed away this week at age 93, but her influence will live on forever.
