The welcoming scene was visited by Emma Roberts, who has become a something of a Valentino brand ambassador, turning up at events in Valentino and often seen at Valentino shows.

The loop print seems to be the one that pops this summer, on slides, bathing suits, bags, light-weight caftans and tops. Several of the guests, including the popular fashion blogger Charlotte Groeneveld and the cultural commentator Sarah Hoover, wore loop-print garb. Candace Bushnell also wore a Valentino print.

Before the seated lunch in the backyard, guests sipped cocktails by the pool and shopped the collection.

It was a delightful afternoon from all accounts.
