Alessandro Michele brings his signature opulence to Valentino with Pavillon des Folies, a campaign where excess becomes poetry in motion.
Alessandro Michele’s debut at Valentino after a two-year break, PAVILLON DES FOLIES, is more than just a collection—it’s a theatrical, extravagant celebration blending excess and eclecticism. The campaign embraces surrealism and nostalgia, featuring models in elaborate designs within a dreamlike, decadent setting. Michele challenges the quiet luxury trend, infusing Valentino’s classic silhouettes with his maximalist aesthetic, making beauty an act of defiance. The campaign revives Valentino’s romanticism through intricate accessories and couture-inspired garments, merging nostalgia with modernity. PAVILLON DES FOLIES is a visual and poetic experience that reaffirms fashion as both indulgence and escape.
