Lori Harvey [1] just executed this year's Met Gala theme [2] at the opening ceremony of the 2022 Cannes Film Festival. Harvey hit the red carpet [3] at Palais Des Festivals in a commanding strapless ball gown [4] that exuded "Gilded Glamour [5]." The ruffled gown, which is Look 40 from Alexandre Vauthier [6]'s spring 2020 couture collection, featured a frayed bodice wrapped in layers of spooled ribbon and held together by a shimmering diamond brooch on the left hip. The voluminous skirt flared in tiers of buttery-yellow ruffles framing Harvey's waist, reaching down to an inch above the red carpet to give us a glimpse of her pointed gold heels. She styled the look with a layered Messika Paris High Jewelry Shards of Mirror Necklace, Illusionistes Diamond Clip Earrings, a Danseurs Aériens Two Finger Ring, and a Toi & Moi Ring.
In a sea of suits and breezy maxi dresses [7], Harvey illuminated the red carpet, keeping firm focus on the whimsical garment with her relatively minimal accessories. The dress's buttery sheen caught the sunlight beautifully, and her refined beauty look — a french manicure, a sleek bun, and a glossy two-toned lip — gave Harvey's full ensemble a total air of regality. Sophisticated, sleek, and perfect for a day out on the French Riviera.
Harvey's actual Met Gala look was a crisscross Michael Kors dress [8] in black with a flowing train and a daring ab-baring [9] diamond cutout. "Thank you, @michaelkors, for letting me be one of your muses for the evening! What a moment! I don't think I'll ever be over this stunning dress you made for me," Harvey gushed on Instagram following the event.
