Alessandro Michele explores the tension between romantic maximalism and Valentino’s refined heritage, pairing sharp tailoring with fluid fabrics and unexpected proportions
Inspired by the Italian word for “interference,” Alessandro Michele presents Valentino Interferenze for Fall/Winter 2026, a collection shaped by the dialogue between contrasting worlds and eras: Michele’s romantic maximalism and Valentino’s refined heritage. Sharp tailoring and 1980s-inspired silhouettes with pronounced shoulders sit beside delicate designs in fluid fabrics. Pleated forms add further contrast, creating a tension that ultimately resolves into unexpected harmony.
