The French actress was naturally dressed in Louis Vuitton, wearing a custom off-the-shoulder black satin plissé gown.

Two things can be true here. This gown is undeniably elegant and carries an unmistakable Old Hollywood glamour, yet it also feels like it was designed with someone older in mind.

But when you place it within the context of Léa’s understated personal style, the choice starts to make much more sense. There is usually a quiet sophistication to the way she dresses, and this look continues that narrative.

All that being said, Léa still looked incredibly regal in this gown. The sculptural neckline, dramatic sleeves, and rich satin texture gave the look real presence on the red carpet, while the red lip and softly waved bob brought a classic screen siren feel.

Her Pure V necklace, Infini ring, and earrings, all in white gold and diamonds from the Louis Vuitton High Jewelry collections, completed the look beautifully.

Stylist: Alexandra Imgruth.
