Are we about to hear the church bells ring? Winnie Harlow and Kyle Kuzma, who began dating in April 2020 after the latter slid into her DMs, are still going strong. The couple is turning every red carpet event into a romantic opportunity, proving they’re one of Hollywood’s sweetest couples.
The two were recently seen at the 77th Cannes Film Festival on two separate occasions, and I like how they didn’t hesitate to wear matching outfits—something that other couples would find cheesy.

Dreamy in White and Pink
Kyle Kuzma and Winnie Harlow looked like a dream in complementary pink and white ensembles as they graced the star-studded 2024 amfAR Gala during the Cannes Film Festival.
American basketball star Kuzma, who plays professionally for the Washington Wizards, looked handsome in a glittering white suit composed of a double-breasted jacket, sparkly pinstripe detailing, and notched lapels topped off with an oversized tweed bow accent. He wore it with its matching loose-fitting glittery pinstripe pants and added a casual touch with chunky white sneakers.
I like the set, but the fit bothers me; it looks sloppy. I would have loved it more if the jacket had been tailored well and the pants had been straight instead of baggy. But considering Kuzma’s natural swag, I could give this a pass.
The six-foot-nine professional basketball player accessorized the formal ensemble with his signature cool flair. He wore a white sleeveless undershirt and a few pieces of bling from David Yurman, including reverse-set pavé Huggies hoop earrings, a two-layered silver Curb Chain necklace with pavé-set diamonds, and a matching bracelet.

Harlow, meanwhile, exuded bridal chic in a white—or pale pink—off-the-shoulder Vivienne Westwood gown. It highlighted her cleavage with a fold-over, off-the-shoulder sweetheart neckline and a corseted bodice that complemented her slender figure.
The lower portion of the outfit featured a floor-length satin skirt that appeared to be tied around her tiny waist. She put on a very leggy display, with a bold slit that went all the way to her hips, nearly exposing her crotch.
It’s a pretty simple design, but the silhouette and Harlow’s execution of the dress were impeccable, in my opinion.
I like the tasteful accessories that her stylists, Jaz and Sarah, added to the ensemble. Like her longtime boyfriend, Winnie wore David Yurman jewelry, including the 18k white gold triple drop snowflake diamond earrings and their matching ring.

Makeup artist Lindzy completed Harlow’s elegance with shimmering bronze eyeshadow, mascara, peachy blush, and mauve lip gloss. Estelle Hayatou, meanwhile, gave her an exquisite updo with loose strands swirling around her gorgeously made-up face.
Harlow slipped her white-pedicured feet into the pink satin “Cleo” sandals by René Caovilla, lending a whimsical touch to the elegant dress. They have rounded, open toes, two straps that straddle the foot and the vamp, and a coiled snake strap that slithers around her ankles.
A beige satin version of these high-heel sandals is available for $1,095 at Mytheresa.

Exuding Breathtaking Allure in Matching Black Looks
The previous day, the couple and other celebrities and models attended the Cannes Film Festival premiere of The Count of Monte Cristo. However, the two couldn’t be missed as they posed on the red carpet in gorgeous black outfits.
Kyle opted for a more refined look, wearing a black Armani tuxedo suit with satin lapels, a crisp white shirt, and a black bowtie.
He completed his dapper ensemble with shiny black loafers, tiny hoop earrings, and a $450,000 F.P.Journe Tourbillon Souverain Vertical watch with a solid 18k rose gold case and croc strap.

But even with Kuzma’s extravagant watch, Winnie still commanded attention in her racy Zuhair Murad Fall 2023 lingerie-style outfit.
Her confidence amazed me, considering how little of her body was covered in the black gown. It was designed with a see-through lace lingerie bodice with cutouts and a sweetheart neckline held in place by spaghetti straps.
The bottom part of the gown featured a sheer mesh tail skirt that flowed gracefully down her back to a sweeping train. While the black high-low lace dress was impressive on its own, the addition of dark purple flowers that cascaded diagonally from her right shoulder to her left hip gave the alluring appearance a romantic feel.

Winnie accessorized with jewelry from the Damiani Mimosa collection to further elevate the look’s opulence. She wore a white gold necklace, exquisitely set with rubies and diamonds, matching diamond earrings, and a ring from the same collection.
Estelle Hayatou styled her long tresses in gorgeous waves, while Lindzy accentuated her features with a bronzed glow, feathery eyelashes, and burgundy lipstick.
Rounding out the ensemble was a pair of glossy pumps by Gianvito Rossi. She wore the $950 “Cara” pumps, handmade in Italy from patent leather. They have a pointed-toe d’Orsay style and an ankle strap embellished with the brand’s signature Ribbon buckle. They’re finished with 4.5-inch stiletto heels, further accentuating Harlow’s impressive 5’9” height.

Embracing a Contemporary My Fair Lady Look
It seemed as though Winnie Harlow was channeling Eliza Doolittle from My Fair Lady last week when she attended the Cannes Film Festival premiere of The Apprentice, dressed entirely in white.
Winnie looked radiant in her Tamara Ralph Couture ensemble, which consisted of a cropped tweed jacket and matching form-fitting pants. Both were designed with latticework mesh panels of multi-sized pearls and pearl fringes along the hem.
Winnie also wore a statement white tweed hat that barely served its purpose. It was designed with diamond lattice cutouts that complemented the theme of her outfit.
I’m not a fan of the entire ensemble, as I think it looks too excessive, but Winnie pulled it off and created a striking look.

With the assistance of her stylists, Jaz and Sarah, Winnie showed that nothing was too much for her when she decided to add diamond jewels by David Morris to her already busy ensemble.
She wore a necklace from the newly unveiled Riviera collection, which pays homage to the timeless elegance of the resorts along the French and Italian Rivieras. It displays rows of diamonds arranged in varying heights and angles, showcasing the London jeweler’s exquisite craftsmanship.
In addition to the necklace, she also wore chandelier floral earrings dripping with brilliant diamonds and matching rings from the Le Jardin collection.
Completing her head-to-toe white outfit was a pair of white pumps from Santoni. They have pointed toes and are fastened to her ankles with double buckled slingback straps set atop a 4-inch heel.
