About Carmen Marc Valvo:
In 1989 Carmen Marc Valvo set out on a path that would unknowingly lead him to become one of 7th Avenue's most steadfast independent labels.
Having been laid off from his job after purchasing his first home, Carmen founded his eponymous label out of simple necessity and he has never looked back. His elegant eveningwear is now a staple at Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdales, Nordstroms, Bergdorf Goodman, and countless other specialty stores nationally and internationally.
His label appears on grand couture gowns for grand occasions to slinky cocktail dresses for enchanted evenings. His swimwear is a best seller at Victoria's Secret with sunglasses / eyewear, lingerie, home decor (launching Spring 2009) and his first collection of evening bags (launching Fall 2009), rounding out the designer's extensive brand.
