Harry Styles kicks off the sweater season at the Valentino show

Today’s Valentino Spring 2025 show was one of them the the most anticipated debut of Paris Fashion Week: designer Alessandro Michele made his long-awaited debut for the brand and the moment attracted an A-list crowd in the front rows. Some of Michele’s biggest supporters, who wore red carpet looks constantly while he was at the helm of Gucci, showed up for the scandal – including stars like Elton John, Florence Welch, Jared Leto and, of course, Harry Styles (one of his biggest muses). . Walking the walk and repeating, Styles deliberately chose a restrained look for the occasion, although the singer kicked off sweater season with a bright, bold knit.

Punctuated by a subtle “V” logo, Styles’ simple orange Valentino sweater was a stark departure from the opulent Gucci pieces he wore from Michele (Pearls! Crystals! Ruffles!). But a hint of that old, whimsical spirit was still present: a ruffled collar peeked out from under the sweater, adding a more unexpected touch. Still, with the addition of simple dress pants and a pair of brown loafers, the overall look ushered in a new era of Styles’ style – one that was decidedly adult and sophisticated. However, his gigantic aerialists 100% deserved the top position. You can bet he’ll be wearing Michele’s Valentino for all his red carpet appearances in the future. If it looks this elegant, you’re welcome.
