Models @ amfAR’s 20th Annual Cinema Against AIDS

Here is a round up of all the models who took to the red carpet on Thursday evening for the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala held at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, France on Thursday evening before taking to the runway for the fashion show.

Karolina Kurkova: Cavalli created an uber hot black cut-out gown for the sensational Kurkova. This woman couldn’t look bad if she tried. Aside from the serpent bracelet, she let the gown do all the talking…and it’s sayin’ “don’t I look hot?”

Joan Smalls: The gorgeous model worked a Givenchy Fall 2013 floral sequin sheer gown with a sheer sweater with leather appliqués. I had expected Ciara to have worn one of these looks by now. I didn’t have high hopes for this portion of the collection, but it does translate rather nicely off the runway. I am intrigued to see the look sans sweater.

Karlie Kloss: Is she just not trying anymore? The model wore a Louis Vuitton Pre-Fall 2013 look which is uber chic, but just not enough for a gala event. She could’ve worn anything she wanted, so I wonder why she chose to wear this. Maybe she just wanted to be less obvious like many of her fellow models at this event.

Milla Jovovich In Valentino Couture – amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala

Ah, so this is what redemption looks like.

Milla Jovovich has been well below par during Cannes Film Festival, however, she made up for it on Thursday evening on the red carpet for the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala held at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, France.

The model/actress selected a stunning Valentino Spring 2013 Couture gown.

Her delicate blush gown with shimmering floral beaded embroidery, a plunging neckline and tiered ruffled skirt is by far her best look.

Sometimes her look can come off quite harsh, but here she is quite the opposite.

A Jimmy Choo ‘Carmen’ clutch, David Yurman jewels including green beryl and diamond drop earrings and a cognac diamond cuff complemented her look perfectly, with an additional sapphire cuff with a rubellite and diamond ring providing a nice pop of colour.

A braided updo and a shimmering pink lip colour completed her look.

Much improved, or is Milla having an off year here at Cannes?

Anna Dello Russo In Balenciaga – amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala

Anna Dello Russo added some life to the red carpet at amfAR’s Cinema Against AIDS Gala held at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, France on Thursday evening.

The Vogue editor-at-large was one of the few bright sparks on this red carpet, opting for a flamenco style Balenciaga Spring 2013 look which showed off her yoga toned bod to perfection.

We’ve seen this style twice before on the red carpet, but this is the first time it has been worn with conviction.

A Bulgari clutch and jewels completed her look.

Kylie Mingoue In Roberto Cavalli – amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala

Kylie Mingoue was also part of Roberto Cavalli’s entourage for the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala held at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, France on Thursday evening.

Having partied on the designer’s boat Wednesday night, the Australian singer selected a classic Cavalli gown with a plunging neckline, thigh-high slit, embellishments and cut-out details.

Same tried and tested formula, yet, before us lays a totally different gown.

Gold accessories including Chopard jewels completed her look.

Zhang Ziyi In Giambattista Valli Couture – amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala

Zhang Ziyi took to the red carpet again this evening for the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala held at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, France.

She wore a Giambattista Valli Spring 2013 Couture zebra print dress with a tulle black skirt draping from the peplum-like detail.

I was trying to figure out what was bothering me about the look — then I realised it was the skirt.

The black tulle skirt was equally distributed on the runway, but stops short at the front on Zhang, losing some of the allure of the runway piece as Zhang’s resembles a mullet dress.

Mouawad fine jewelery, Ferragamo black peep-toes with gold piping and a black clutch completed her look.

Paz Vega In Vionnet – amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala

Paz Vega kept it simple this evening for the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala held at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d’Antibes, France on Thursday evening..

The Spanish beauty wore a Vionnet Spring 2013 black jersey spaghetti strap dress which featured a deep plunging neckline.

I was really expecting a major comeback look tonight, but this dress isn’t really speaking to me like so many of her other looks in the past. It’s sad to say, but this look is easily forgettable.
