The Monaco royals graced the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival this week, with Charlotte Casiraghi wowing in a floral Chanel number.

The model and equestrian, 36, was joined by her husband, Lebanese-French film producer Dimitri Rassam, and her sister-in-law, Beatrice Borromeo, at the glitzy event.

The trio attended the screening of Johnny Depp's latest film, Jeanne du Barry, on Tuesday.

Beatrice, who is married to Charlotte's brother, Pierre Casiraghi, wowed in a black and gold lace gown from Dior's AW22 Couture Collection.

Pierre and Beatrice have two sons, Stefano and Francesco, born in 2017 and 2018 respectively.

Charlotte is the daughter of Princess Caroline of Hanover – Prince Albert of Monaco's older sister – and the late Stefano Casiraghi.

As well as her four-year-old son, Balthazar, whom she shares with Dimitri, Charlotte also has nine-year-old Raphaël, from her previous relationship with stand-up comedian, Gad Elmaleh.

Princess Maria Carolina De Bourbon des Deux Siciles and Princess Maria Chiara de Bourbon des Deux Siciles also attended Cannes Film Festival this week.
