As the 79th edition of the Cannes Film Festival draws to a close, there continues to be no shortage of big names in cinema on the red carpet. In the past few days, the Croisette has seen important artists from the international film scene parade, and this evening, Friday, May 22, 2026, it was also the turn of a timeless icon like Monica Bellucci, who walked the renowned red carpet.
Flown to the French Riviera for the presentation of the new film Histoires de la nuit – in which she plays the role of Cristina – the actress chose a total black look, a stylistic feature that distinguishes her especially on red carpets and at social events: a long-sleeved leather evening dress by Fendi with a structured collar and shoulders and a vertical neckline, while the waist is marked by a sash that emphasizes the silhouette. The dress, with the exception of the collar and cuffs, is made with an intricate leather work that recalls the effect of lace, creating a balance between rigor and sensuality. Giving light to the outfit are a thin necklace and small diamond pendants.
