Bella Hadid’s Boldest Cannes Looks: Sculptural Gowns, Iconic Heels & Off-Duty Cool

Bella Hadid has never been one to shy away from a bold fashion moment. Whether she’s commanding the runway, redefining street style, or sharing glimpses of her off-duty glamour online, the supermodel has built a reputation for turning even the simplest appearance into a spectacle.

And at the 74th Cannes Film Festival, she didn’t just walk the red carpet—she dominated it.

Over several days, Bella delivered a masterclass in sensual, sculptural dressing, stepping out in a series of head-turning looks that instantly cemented themselves as some of the festival’s most talked-about fashion moments.

The Iconic Lung Necklace Gown: Bold, Sculptural, and Unapologetically Daring

Bella transformed the red carpet into a moment of pure haute drama, relying on Schiaparelli’s sculptural gold lung necklace to frame an audaciously plunging neckline.

The form-fitting black gown—cut daringly low and balanced by voluminous sleeves and a sweeping skirt—managed to feel both risqué and impeccably composed.

Statement Jewelry and Sculpted Glam Complete the Look

A large, gilded brass necklace that appeared like a lung hanging from a chunky gold chain helped protect Bella’s modesty. She also wore a pair of Chopard Ruby dangling earrings and a Chopard Phoenix ring.

For her beauty look, Bella wore her tresses into a tight, high-updo with intricate curls. She then highlighted her features with a dramatic contour, subtle smoky eyeshadow, and a swipe of matte nude lip shade.

French fashion house Lanvin tapped into full retro glamour for Bella’s evening-party look, dressing her in a custom black mini dress from the Fall 2021 collection.

Adding further glamour to her look, Bella accessorized with Chopard emerald drop earrings, a Chopard Happy Hearts bangle, and a couple of statement rings, most likely from Chopard as well.

She then continued with the retro glam by adding a pair of long black sheer gloves and styling her tresses into a ponytail with ‘20s finger waves.

In her attempt to keep a low profile, Bella covered her face with black sunglasses and a face mask. She then kept her long, wavy tresses off her face with a wide, dotted sweatband and slung a brown Fendi bag over her shoulder.
