The beauty queen had been invited back to the festival by the Clarins brand, which had reserved a seat for her at the presentation of the film Fjord , a drama by Romanian director Cristian Mungiu. The founder of the Kelina association once again enlisted stylists, hairdressers, and makeup artists for her red carpet look . And what an outfit it was! The Franco-Beninese woman struck the perfect balance between the timeless elegance of a little black dress and old-Hollywood glamour , in a piece enhanced by an intriguing necklace.
Flora Coquerel's dress is inspired by a men's tuxedo, featuring lapels at the neckline like suit blazers, as well as a button on the chest, abruptly stopped by a sensual cutout . The rest of the creation, embroidered with shimmering pearls, falls in a long, slit skirt to her silver Spark sandals by Rene Caovilla. As for the necklace, it comes from the British jewelry house Astrea London. Its unique feature? It was created in collaboration with Sarah Jessica Parker herself!
