Mati Diop Wore Khaite, Prada, Bottega Veneta & Chanel Haute Couture During Cannes Film Festival

Mati Diop joined Mélanie Laurent, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Spike Lee, and Mélanie Thierry as part of the jury committee for the 2021 Cannes Film Festival.

Following her opening look in Chanel Haute Couture, the French-Senegalese actress and director kept things super simple wearing Khaite Vivia dress which from the front appears like a classic knitted design, but it’s contrasted with a bold open back with laces.

This look was styled with a Paco Rabanne 1969 bag and white pumps.

For the Kering Women In Motion event she wore a Prada cut-out turtleneck top with oversized trousers from the Spring 2021 collection.

On the runway, this top was layered, but both Regina King and Mati have opted out of the runway styling.

For ‘The French Dispatch’ premiere it felt like Christmas had come early, as Mati walked the red carpet wearing a Bottega Veneta Pre-Fall 2021 dress featuring cut-outs accented with tinsel-like ornaments.

This is actually my favourite look from Mati during this festival.

For the closing ceremony and ‘OSS 117: From Africa With Love’ premiere, the actress finished as she started, in Chanel Haute Couture.

Her green and mauve dress from the Fall 2018 collection saw her bow out with dazzling style.
