You may remember that I was a little underwhelmed by her awards season run, as many of the looks started to blur together, aside from the Harris Reed look she wore to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, which remains my favourite look from her this year.

So I was genuinely surprised to see her step onto the Cannes red carpet wearing a Dior Spring 2026 look from the menswear collection.

Jonathan Anderson designed both his womenswear and menswear to feel interchangeable, and we have already seen women like Greta Lee and Rihanna embrace the menswear pieces, but I still was not expecting to see this collection translated onto the Cannes red carpet in this way.

And you know what? It works.

Odessa is definitely that girl who can wear a grey oversized suit to a premiere and make it feel entirely authentic to her style. The slouched proportions, oversized jacket, striped shirt left casually undone, and wrap sunglasses gave the look a cool nonchalance that stood apart from the sea of predictable gowns.

Yes, Cannes is synonymous with glamour and sweeping dresses, but some of those looks are starting to feel a little repetitive – which you may be surprised to hear me say. So when someone steps outside the expected, especially with this much conviction and authenticity, you certainly will not hear me complaining.
