TO a few days before his 60th birthday, Valeria Golino change your skin and hair. At the Rome Film Festival 2025, the actress presents herself with a renewed look, which marks a clear break with the image she showed off until a few weeks ago at the Valentino fashion show in Paris, where she shone with platinum blonde curls.
Valeria Golino, dark and straight hair on the red carpet of the Rome Film Festival
After the ethereal appearance in curly blonde in Valentino’s parterre, the heart of Autumn brings the definitive change. Partly for the sake of transforming and putting yourself out there like only a great performer like her can do. Partly because on 22 October 2025 the turning point will be 60 years oldbeautifully worn. The perfect stage is the one where you perhaps feel most at home: the Rome Film Festival. In which she sends the public a clear message: she is now another Valeria. More intense, sophisticated and mysterious.
Chocolate curls for the day
The hair of the protagonist of Breath they turned dark chocolate brown. A warm and sensual nuance that seems to tell a new chapter of its identity. A transformation that elegantly enhances its authentic beauty, without distorting it. Starting with the film’s daytime photocall Short love story (out November 27).

Here Golino, together with the casual chic men’s suit by Brunello Cucinelli, shows off a soft, slightly curly crease which recalls his usual style. Voluminous and rounded, the hair look focuses on disheveled shaving bangs in homage to his indomitable character.
Smooth and fluffy for the evening
The metamorphosis compared to previous hairstyles is definitively completed on the evening red carpet. Where she is almost unrecognizable in a modern dark lady version. The look by Giorgio Armani (a suit in fluid black velvet, deconstructed, crossed by discreet sparkles and enriched by a precious chain necklace) is the perfect setting for the final header.

In the new busy phase of the actress and director, the hair returns to its original color. Becoming unexpectedly smooth and tamed, even if light and fluffy, to underline the beauty of a face that is always radiant and charismatic.
Golino confirms herself as a transversal muse, capable of crossing decades and styles with an always hypnotic gaze. And if this new deep brown symbolically marks the entry into a new decade, it does so with the strength and grace of someone who has never needed to appear young to feel contemporary.
