But this one doesn't feel that elegant. It seems like the wrong material for all that tucking and darting and draping. Like trying to make a gown out of chinos. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915171ef-1684271749.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by David Fisher/Shutterstock (13915171ef) Helen Mirren 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 But WAS IT, Helen? WAS IT? ## Elle Fanning in McQueen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915171nz-1684271627.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by David Fisher/Shutterstock (13915171nz) Elle Fanning 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 I suspect this looked better in person. It doesn't seem so twinkly in photos. ## Hanne Jacobsen and Mads Mikkelsen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915171li-1684271725.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by David Fisher/Shutterstock (13915171li) Hanne Jacobsen and Mads Mikkelsen 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 These two seem like a rad, stylish couple. Like, she's your friend who just looks great and put-together all the time at ALL your events, even the casual ones, and you can't figure out how she does it. ## Pom Klementieff in Versace ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915171nl-1684271673.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by David Fisher/Shutterstock (13915171nl) Pom Klementieff 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 I knew this had to be Donatella before I even looked it up. Her boning is her signature. This is fine? It's certainly dramatic. Actually, I do think it works well on her. ## Naomi Campbell in Celine ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915171md-1684271661.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by David Fisher/Shutterstock (13915171md) Naomi Campbell 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 This is elegant and flawless and I LOVE IT.

I like the train? The bodice seems awry, and as if they were out of ideas. ## Fan Bingbing in Christopher Bu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915173z-1684271435.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Matt Baron/BEI/Shutterstock (13915173z) Fan Bing Bing 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 Wearing Christopher Bu If the dress is going to sit that low, I might have traded the earrings for a bigger statement necklace. But I'm thrilled to see her. She always turns up in something dramatic. ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915999w-1684271383.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Simone Comi/ipa-agency.net/Shutterstock (13915999w) 76th Cannes Film Festival 2023, evening 1 - Opening Red Carpet, Inaugural Ceremony.

I see chocolate, lemon, pistachio, vanilla, coffee, strawberry, maybe a watermelon... ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915171og-1684271604.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by David Fisher/Shutterstock (13915171og) Elvira Jain 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 GAH. ## Chika Ike ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915999ad-1684271396.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Alberto Terenghi/ipa-agency ne/Shutterstock (13915999ad) 76th Cannes Film Festival 2023, evening 1 - red carpet of the film "Jeanne du Barry" - opening ceremony.

The festival runs from 16 to 27 May. Opening Ceremony - 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 ... just kidding, for once this ISN'T a terrifying reveal. Although somewhere, a giantess is wondering where her matching scrunchies went. ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915999k-1684271406.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Alberto Terenghi/ipa-agency ne/Shutterstock (13915999k) 76th Cannes Film Festival 2023, evening 1 - red carpet of the film "Jeanne du Barry" - opening ceremony.

I mean, Cannes-amazing, not regular amazing. ## Catherine Deneuve in Louis Vuitton ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915172gi-1684271493.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Anthony Harvey/Shutterstock (13915172gi) Catherine Deneuve 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 This is all very stately. ## Irene Jacob in Chanel ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915172hc-1684271506.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Anthony Harvey/Shutterstock (13915172hc) Irene Jacob 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 This pattern is checkered race flags, which is from [that season when Chanel used the Grand Prix as inspiration for a show in Monaco](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/chanel-threw-its-cruise-show-extravaganza-in-monte-carlo-05-2022/). But it works shockingly well. ## Guan Xiaotong in Valentino ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915172bp-1684271518.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Anthony Harvey/Shutterstock (13915172bp) Guan Xiaotong 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 On the runway model, [the bodice was really more of a cummerbund](https://www.instagram.com/p/CsUZ1u9RdM7/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), so I guess let's be happy THAT didn't happen here. ## Daphne Burki ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2023/05/shutterstock_editorial_13915172ao-1684271542.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Anthony Harvey/Shutterstock (13915172ao) Daphne Burki 'Jeanne du Barry' premiere and opening ceremony, 76th Cannes Film Festival, France - 16 May 2023 Sparkly argyle?
