After disappearing from the limelight in 2018 due to a highly publicised tax scandal, Fan Bingbing made a triumphant return to the Cannes Film Festival this month, creating several jaw-dropping fashion moments as she got up close and personal with A-list friends from Naomi Campbell to Freida Pinto.
Let’s look at her best fashion looks and moments.
1) Cannes Film Festival red carpet
Fan made her Cannes red carpet debut on May 16 ahead of the opening ceremony and the screening of the film Jeanne du Barry.
Channelling old Hollywood glamour while paying homage to her Chinese roots, she wore a show-stopping custom-made gown created by her go-to designer Christopher Bu. The gown featured a sweeping train and a bamboo forest-inspired print, depicting several tigers prowling amid the foliage.
She paired the look with emerald earrings, an updo and a slick of red lipstick and liquid eyeliner.
2) Opening ceremony gala dinner
Fan’s second look of the night was a 50s-style black velvet off-the-shoulder gown from Yanina Couture. The dress featured 3D floral detailing hand stitched with sequins and beads. Just to add a little more glamour, the look was paired with black leather gloves trimmed with feathers.
