Charlotte Lawrence hit the Oscars 2025 red carpet in a look from Valentino’s new Pavillion des Folies collection, an offering spearheaded by Alessandro Michele since his move to the house. The label, long defined by its haute couture heritage, has shifted to a fresh artistic direction that blends romantic shapes with a rebellious spirit. This shift is grabbing headlines, especially after Valentino’s buzzy pop-up in Tokyo last season, where Michele teased the collection’s floral motifs and deconstructed silhouettes.
Lawrence’s rose and gold organza gown, complete with floral embroidery and pink tulle rouches, showed how the brand channels craftsmanship in modern ways. The satin bow detail at the waist gave a nod to Valentino’s signature elegance while feeling distinctly playful, a move that suits the brand’s pivot under Michele. Paired with Valentino Garavani accessories, Lawrence’s look fused old-world embroidery with a flash of downtown cool.
