Beretta, who started his career at Procter&Gamble before moving to Nike as partner Partner Management Director Southern Europe, will report to Laurent Bergamo, Valentino's Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) for the Americas, Europe, Middle East and Brazil.

Since Chief Executive Jacopo Venutrini joined Valentino in mid-2020, when the coronavirus pandemic was biting the entire luxury industry, the fashion house, founded in 1960 by Valentino Garavani and controlled by Qatari investment vehicle Mayhoola, has revamped its organisation and called in new managers.

The group's revenue totalled 1.23 billion euros last year, 3% higher than the pre-pandemic levels of 2019.
