Now that Dakota Johnson is Alessandro Michele's brand ambassador again, a front-row sighting at his Valentino shows is all but guaranteed. On January 28, a pantless Johnson cashed in her invite at Michele's return to Haute Couture Week—her first couture show since 2014.
Johnson joined Tyla, Kirsten Dunst, Lily Allen, and more inside the Parisian venue following the evening's dress code: head-to-toe Valentino. However, the Pre-Fall 2026 selects she chose with stylist Kate Young were missing a major element: trousers or a skirt. Look 3's '80s-inspired set instead incorporated nothing but two bow-tied, leopard print blouses and a pair of translucent hot pants. Michele crafted the underwear-as-outerwear moment from black, semi-sheer lace, which complemented Johnson's brown, floral-printed tights.
