CANNES, FRANCE: Every Cannes season — in and around day seven of
14 — there’s a shift in the vibe. A real lull as the journalists
grow tired and irritated from midnight screenings and early morning
filings. But then…
a Hadid shows up, and order (or should that be chaos?) is
restored along la Croisette.
Gigi Hadid encompassed this moment when she appeared at the
premiere of the
Jude Law and
Alicia Vikander-starring film Firebrand at the
Cannes Film Festival on May 21. The 28-year-old model and
mother-of-one wore a tan, strapless, floor-length gown with a muted
peplum waist and fishtail by Zac Posen and jewelry by Messika.
Jovially swanning about the carpet, Hadid appeared the most at ease
of all who walked it, smiling and waving, her bombshell blonde
waves effortlessly flung to one side.

Firebrand is a highly anticipated release here in
Cannes. It explores the story of Catherine Parr (Oscar-winning
Vikander) who was King Henry XVIII’s (Law) sixth wife. (Not to be
confused with Jeanne du Barry, the film which opened the
76th Cannes Film Festival this year and tells the story
of Louis XV’s last official mistress.) From Brazilian-Argentinian
filmmaker Karim Aïnouz, early reviews of Firebrand are
already favorable, with special mention of just how unrecognizable
Law is. (Seriosuly, take a look at the man below! He certainly is a
long way from Mr. Napkin Head in The Holiday.)
