Elle Fanning Commands TIFF in Two-Tone Valentino: A Modern Masterclass in Minimalism

Elle Fanning stuns at TIFF in a black-and-white Valentino—sculptural asymmetry, sleek styling, and bold minimalist elegance.

At the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, Elle Fanning made a striking red-carpet entrance for the premiere of Sentimental Value, wearing a sculptural two-tone Valentino ensemble from Alessandro Michele’s Resort 2026 collection.

The look fused clean lines with architectural finesse: a crisp white, asymmetrical top featured a single gathered sleeve and twisted drape, cinching at the waist with subtle knotting and revealing one shoulder through a slanted neckline.

Flowing beneath, the black maxi skirt provided a fluid base—its contrast lending drama with understated grace.

Elle accessorized with minimal yet impactful additions. A Cartier silver-and-black pendant offered a refined touch against the clean white top.

Her footwear choice—a pair of black Gianvito Rossi heels—maintained the monochrome aesthetic and kept the outfit grounded in elegance.

Styling was sleek and deliberate. Her hair was pulled into a tight, polished bun, emphasizing the outfit's clean neckline. A bold red lip added a pop of color, contrasting beautifully with the minimalist palette and adding a vintage Hollywood flair.
