The Cannes Film Festival red carpet is the site for a different kind of celebrity couple style: the perfect union between an A-lister and a designer they know better than any other. Each year she attends, Natalie Portman lands on the Cannes best-dressed list by walking La Croisette clad in head-to-toe, often-custom Dior.
Two years ago, Portman fêted the 2023 premiere of May/December in a recreation of an iconic Dior gown. Christened "Junon" in 1949, the evening gown featured a delicate, strapless bodice that exploded into a skirt of cascading embroidered petals inspired by peacock feathers. The original is currently held by the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City; Portman's version modified the original with larger embellishments and a relatively unadorned bodice.
