Bella Hadid dazzled the French Riviera in an array of head-turning looks while attending Cannes Film Festival and she continued her eye-catching ways at the star-studded premiere of BlacKkKlansman. The event held at the Palais des Festivals was attended by A-listers including models Winnie Harlow and Natasha Poly.

While Hadid walked the iconic carpet in her beaded haute couture number, Kristen Stewart casually broke the rules and took off her stilettos while walking up the same carpet. Bella, on the other hand, handled her high heels like a pro as she posed for photos.

Her show-stopping gown hugged her slender frame and accentuated her pert posterior which was captured perfectly from numerous angles. The halter neck of the glamorous garment was sure to highlight plenty of side-boob and skim her narrow midriff as she joined her fellow models for the star-studded premiere.

Alongside Hadid, Harlow stunned in a green off-the-shoulder ballgown that featured a daring thigh-high slit to showcase her endless legs. The folded ruching on the bodice accentuated the model’s slender waist while a pair of sky-high strappy gold heels added height to her already tall frame. Harlow decided to forego accessories to dedicate all the attention to her gown.

Russian model Natasha, who joined the two to form a three-some, made a statement in a daring lilac gown that featured billowing sleeves and sheer silver beaded mesh. An intricately beaded bodice showed off her taut tummy and slender hips. Diamond rings, statement earrings, and a pair of silver stilettos completed the look.

Other guests that graced the event included Naomi Campbell, Alessandra Ambrosio, Jane Fonda, and Cate Blanchett. In the meantime, actress Kristen subtly defied the unspoken rule that requires women to wear heels at the Cannes Festival. The actress, who was dressed in a metallic minidress took off her shoes while on the red carpet and proceeded to walk barefoot. When expressing her displeasure, Kristen told the Hollywood Reporter in 2017 that 'People get very upset at you if you don't wear heels or whatever. I feel like you can't ask that anymore, but it's still a given. If you're not asking guys to wear heels and a dress then you can't ask me either.'

Well, the Cannes Festival had its fair share of glamor and drama. Let us know your thoughts in the comments section.
