Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, Natalie Portman, Chiara Mastroianni… Money rush on the Cannes red carpet

It’s 6pm on the Croisette fifteen minutes later when a black sedan pulls up a long leg wearing a head-turning Aquazzura sandal. This is Carla Bruni-Sarkozy advancing to the foot of the stairs to go to the preview Area of ​​interest directed by Jonathan Glazer. For her climb up the stairs, the 55-year-old singer chose to contrast the contours of the event-specific ball gown. Carla Bruni prefers the agility of the mini to the spectacular dresses, revealing her slender legs to the photographers.

The piece is signed by Celine Hedi Slimane and consists of a structured silver bust with an embellished gray skirt with a veil ending in a train at the back. She accompanies it with Chopard jewelry. But while the former first lady is stepping out of the game in her short dress, she’s actually at the heart of another trend that’s taking over tonight’s red carpet.

A few minutes later, at the foot of the Palais des Festivals, it is Natalie Portman who comes to confirm the movement; silver has dethroned gold. She chooses to appear in a gray and midnight blue embroidered degraded dress from Dior’s Fall/Winter 2017 collection. The bias was also seen with Cate Blanchett in a Louis Vuitton dress embellished with silver pockets, and even Adriana Carembeau in a mermaid dress with gray scales. A way to leave the privilege of palm gold.
