STREET SCENE: Valentino’s new creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli are taking couture to a whole new level — the street. The duo plans broadcast their Paris debut tonight live to plasma screens in Valentino boutiques in Paris, Milan and Rome. Meanwhile, following speculation in Italy that Valentino Garavani was supervising the collection, the retired couturier issued a statement Tuesday to “categorically deny any contact” with Chiuri and Piccioli or “the collections they design.” Garavani said, “If I decide to attend the presentation of their collection, it will only be as a supporter of two people I love and who have been close to me for many years.”
