Dakota Johnson Stars in Valentino’s Cruise 2026 Campaign

Los Angeles, CA – Dakota Johnson has reunited with fashion designer Alessandro Michele for Valentino‘s latest campaign. The actress was photographed for the Cruise 2026 collection on November 6, 2025, marking her return as a fashion muse after her stint as a Gucci brand ambassador.

In the new imagery, Johnson lies gracefully on a carpeted floor, dressed in a striking scarlet off-the-shoulder minidress. The dress features cutouts that expose her midriff, paired with floral tights. Accessories include a teal pair of open-toe pumps and a black bag with a gold chain strap, casually arranged beside her.

“Intimacy in frame. Brand Ambassador Dakota Johnson stars in #ValentinoCruise2026, the new campaign imagined by @Alessandro_Michele,” Valentino captioned the post on social media.

Johnson’s signature wavy brown hair and fringe complement her fresh look, which includes glowy pink blush and a rosy nude lip. Shortly after this campaign, she was seen in New York City, donning a black longline leather blazer over a plunging bodysuit by Balenciaga, paired with straight-leg jeans and trendy wedges.

In a surprising fashion choice, she wore a $10,430 gold collar with emerald stone and an eye-catching diamond collar worth $123,858 from designer Sophie Billie Brahe, showcasing her flair for combining luxury with statement pieces.
