Maison Valentino is set to transform the fashion calendar with a reimagined annual schedule, placing a singular focus on its Haute Couture showcase under the creative direction of Alessandro Michele. The highly anticipated debut of Michele’s first Haute Couture collection for Valentino will be revealed this January in Paris, marking the brand’s only Couture presentation for 2025 and setting the stage for a fresh era of Valentino artistry on the runway.
Known for its commitment to exceptional craftsmanship, Maison Valentino’s decision to host a single Haute Couture show each year reflects a deep reverence for the luxury of time—a vital element in the creation of true couture. Under the guidance of CEO Jacopo Venturini and Michele, this approach aims to elevate Haute Couture to an untethered, seasonless art form, where design is granted the freedom to flourish without the constraints of a traditional fashion calendar.
This annual showcase will be accompanied by two co-ed ready-to-wear shows each year, presenting Valentino’s versatile vision across both men’s and women’s collections. Michele’s first ready-to-wear runway debut is scheduled for September 29th, 3PM CEST, during Paris Spring/Summer 2025 Fashion Week, promising a spectacular unveiling of his inaugural designs.
Maison Valentino’s new schedule offers an exciting evolution for fashion show enthusiasts and industry insiders alike, blending tradition with bold creative expression and capturing the timeless allure that has made Valentino an icon of luxury fashion.
