It didn’t take long for an artist to break the newly implemented Cannes Film Festival dress code. In a surprising development, actor Jonathan Guilherme arrived at the prestigious event wearing a floor-length bronze gown with a backless cut that fully revealed his backside.
The Brazilian performer is one of the leading stars in I Only Rest in the Storm, a film presented outside the official competition in a category reserved for diverse and emerging talents.
Once Guilherme had finished posing with the cast for press photos he turned around, revealing his body to the crowd which exploded in applause at the display. Reactions online, however, were the opposite, with people criticizing the fashion choice as “desperate,” and “vulgar.”
