Valentino added another award to his collection extensive collection on Wednesday.

The designer was in Paris to receive the Commandeur de l’ordre des Arts et des Lettres medal, one of France's highest honors, for his contributions to the arts.

If Garavani looked a little bored at the reception it's probably because he's already been there and done that twice.

In 2006, he was awards the Légion d’Honneur in the very same room. Two years later, the mayor presented Valentino with the Grand Médaille de Vermeil de la Ville de Paris, which basically made him an honorary citizen of Paris.

Very impressive!

Congrats!
