For his debut at <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/client\/valentino\">Valentino<\/a>, Michele unveiled the<a href=\"https:\/\/models.com\/work\/valentino-valentino-ss-25-show-\/2348441\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> S\/S 25 collection <\/a> titled <em>Pavillon des Folies<\/em>. The setting was intimate and mysterious, with the room draped in white, creating an almost dreamlike backdrop for his coquette maximalist vision. The star-studded front row \u2014 Jared Leto, Florence Welch, and Harry Styles \u2014 hinted at the romantic opulence to come, echoing Charli XCX\u2019s recent single, <em>Everything is Romantic<\/em>. Cast by <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/ben-grimes\">Ben Grimes<\/a>, the show opened with <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/models\/summer-dirx\">Summer Dirx<\/a> in an A-line dress paired with bows and a heart-shaped motif, paired with red leggings \u2014 a nod to Valentino\u2019s signature hue and black lace gloves.  This was just the beginning of an 80+ look collection that effortlessly referenced the Roaring \u201820s through to the \u201880s. Michele played with ruffles, micro-polka dots, and flapper-style sets in vibrant shades of lemon and gold, while layers of lace and intricate embroidery added a rich, cinematic feel. The accessories were equally dramatic, with models sporting colossal hats, silk turbans, and even two bags at once, all styled with round-lens sunglasses and delicate face-framing veils. These pieces complemented Michele\u2019s celebration of maximalism, yet remained true to the Valentino legacy of elegance and sophistication.<\/p>\n<p><center>All photos by <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/sonny-vandevelde\">Sonny Vandevelde<\/a> |<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Indigital\">INDIGITAL<\/a> for Models.com<\/center><\/p>\n<div class=\"centerimg\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2024\/09\/FRN_1442SonnyPhotosValentinoSS25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-164709\" \/><br \/>\n<small><a href=\"\/\/models.com\/models\/summer-dirx\">Summer Dirx<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"centerimg\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2024\/09\/FRN_1381SonnyPhotosValentinoSS25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-164710\" \/><br \/>\n<small><a href=\"\/\/models.com\/models\/arek-john\">Arek John<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"centerimg\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2024\/09\/FRN_1328SonnyPhotosValentinoSS25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-164711\" \/><br \/>\n<small><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"centerimg\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2024\/09\/FRN_1505SonnyPhotosValentinoSS25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-164713\" \/><br \/>\n<small><a href=\"\/\/models.com\/models\/coumba-mballo\">Coumba Mballo<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"centerimg\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2024\/09\/FRN_1579SonnyPhotosValentinoSS25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-164716\" \/><br \/>\n<small><a href=\"\/\/models.com\/models\/niamh-battersby\">Niamh Battersby<\/a><\/small> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"centerimg\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2024\/09\/FRN_1521SonnyPhotosValentinoSS25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-164719\" \/><br \/>\n<small><a href=\"\/\/models.com\/models\/abuk-manyang-adeer\">Abuk Manyang Adeer<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"centerimg\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/oftheminute\/images\/2024\/09\/FRN_1635SonnyPhotosValentinoSS25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1920\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-164721\" \/><br \/>\n<small><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--pp-thumb-start--><!--PictPress found no dir \/2024\/09\/164700--><!--pp-thumb-end--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rylea Beth The most anticipated show of Paris Fashion Week debuted on Sunday, marking Alessandro Michele&#8217;s triumphant return to the runway after a two-year hiatus.
