Helen Mirren attended the opening night of the Cannes Film Festival on Tuesday evening for a screening of “Jeanne Du Barry,” which stars Johnny Depp and Maïwenn, who also directs the historical drama.
Mirren’s Rococo-inspired ensemble fit the bill, as “Jeanne Du Barry” follows the life of King Louis XV’s infamous mistress. The Oscar-winning actress wore a custom periwinkle gown by Del Core, which featured a plunging neckline, corseted bodice and delicate draping. Mirren paired the pastel piece with diamond jewelry and a pair of silver Sole Bliss platforms.
Mirren, a L’Oréal ambassador, also carried a fan emblazoned with the beauty brand’s “worth it” slogan.
