‘Jeanne du Barry’ Cannes Film Festival Premiere & Opening Ceremony Red Carpet Roundup

Alessandra Ambrosio 2023 Cannes Film Festival

Here is a roundup from the Cannes Film Festival opening ceremony and ‘Jeanne du Barry’ premiere which took place this evening.

Alessandra Ambrosio gave us her usual brand of sensual glamour wearing an Elie Saab Fall 2005 Haute Couture chevron pattern, beaded gown.

The gown may hail from the designer’s archive, but the hood ensured this look was on trend.

Pomellato High Jewellery completed her look.

We don’t see Charlotte Casiraghi for what feels like years, and then she pops up twice in one month on the red carpet.

I have to say I was more impressed with her Chanel look for the Met Gala, as I found this Chanel Fall 2020 Haute Couture look aging, before we get to the disappointing fact this is the second creased Chanel look at this event.

After her sugary tulle Giambattista Valli gown from last year’s event, Cindy Bruna went in the complete opposite direction wearing an Act N°1 Fall 2023 androgynous suit, with – what some might deem as – a random patch of tulle.

Coco Jones wore one of the best looks of the night wearing Valdrin Sahiti.

I can rarely resist a liquid gold gown, especially one with such beautiful sculptural details.

It is a shame that there weren’t many pictures of her on the actual red carpet.

I like the idea of Emmanuelle Béart’s Balmain look, but the execution let her down.

It’s a size too big and too long for her.

Guan Xiaotong’s Valentino Spring 2023 Haute Couture gown is proof of what a small modification can do for a look.

When I saw Jiang Mengjie in this Saint Laurent Spring 2023 look, I said to myself that I’m ready for celebrities to pull from other seasons.

We’ve seen so many variations of this now. Let’s move on.

Naomi Campbell was a vision in Celine which of course was embellished.

For once, she selected jewels from Chopard that I didn’t find distracting.

There was one amazing Dior Haute Couture gown on this red carpet worn by Razane Jammal.
