The Valentino Fashion Group is an Italian

Qatari royal family
.

In 2002, the Valentino fashion house was purchased by the Marzotto Group,[1] joining a group that included Hugo Boss, and licensed products for Gianfranco Ferre, M Missoni, and MCS Marlboro Classics.[2] In 2005, Marzotto spun off Valentino and its other fashion brands into the Valentino Fashion Group.[3]

As a result of a takeover bid made in the second half of 2007, Valentino Fashion Group S.p.A. passed under the control of

business units, which even included Hugo Boss, a company which was relinquished on that date and therefore no longer a part of the consolidated group.[citation needed
]

On 11 July 2012, Mayhoola for Investments, sustained by a large private group from Qatar, purchased Valentino and the M Missoni licence, while MCS Marlboro Classics remains the property of Red & Black, a company indirectly owned by the Permira funds in partnership with the Marzotto family.[4][5]
