No longer just a Hallmark holiday, Valentine is quickly becoming synonymous with beautifully wearable dresses and separates.

While studying painting at U.C. Berkeley, Valentine Leung discovered a love for creating clothing in her experimental art classes. She went on to attend classes at FIT in New York, while she also worked as a stylist’s assistant at photo shoots for esteemed magazines like Italian Vogue and W. During this period she customized Vans, and after making a pair for a model who wore them to a hot L.A. boutique, her designs were in high-demand. This combined experience and confidence-booster gave Leung the wherewithal to design a full collection, and naturally it’s adorable.

Spring and summer are the ideal seasons to wear Valentine’s cotton frocks, with their relaxed silhouettes that flawlessly skim the body. Implementing striking color and tribal print, Valentine has put her own twist on current trends. We’re about ready to send her a love letter.
