Reliance Brands Ltd (RBL), an unit of Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries, has inked a long-term distribution deal with Italy's fashion house Maison Valentino to launch the famous Italian Maison de Couture in India, the PTI reported.

According to a joint statement on Thursday, RBL will open the first Valentino boutique in Delhi, followed by a flagship store in Mumbai.

The experiential design will provide customers with a global experience and a bespoke client experiential journey, as per the statement.

"The brand’s infectious romanticism, signature codes and bold use of colour has strong resonance in India. This partnership will help make the brand more accessible to its Indian customers and build a new tribe of Valentino connoisseurs."

Currently, the brand has presence in over 144 locations in the world through 212 Valentino directly operated boutiques and over 1,300 points of sale.
