But there’s one final hurrah beofre the curtains close on the 12 day festival each year, and our South of France sartorial souls cannot rest until it's happened: the annual amfAR Cannes Gala.
Fashionistas descended on the legendary Hotel Du Cap Eden Roc (where Naomi had said birthday party this week, and Sofia Richie had her stylish wedding last month), for a star-studded night where Queen Latifah played host and Halsey, Adam Lambert, Bebe Rexha and Gladys Knight performed whilst guests sipped on Clase Azul Gold and Reposado tequila, whose famous decanters are as stylish as the gala’s surroundings…
What does amfAR stand for?
amfAR is an abbreviation for the American Foundation for AIDS Research. It’s an international, non-profit organisation that was set up in 1985 to raise money for AIDS research, education and HIV prevention. Large proportions of fundraising come from the annual Gala in Cannes which has raised $210 million for the cause. Stylish celebrities come together annually and frequently auction off grand prizes. At the 25th anniversary gala in 2018, Pierce Brosnan put an original painting up for auction which sold for $1.4 million, whilst Heidi Klum gave a restored 1964 Bentley Convertible to be auctioned off, which sold for over $800,000.
We particularly enjoyed the outfits at this year's event because the range of looks were so broad. From Ashley Graham in a Nina Ricci suit, to Elsa Hosk in her own label, to Halsey in a naked dress, there were absolutely zero dull moments…
Ashley made the case for the tailored two piece in the coolest Nina Ricci suit paired with Harris Reed's signature, Beyonce in Formation approved, oversized hat.
