Without a doubt, the Cannes Film Festival is the world’s biggest red carpet showcasing the best talents in the film industry, while providing style devotees with a seemingly endless array of standout fashion. There is absolutely no shortage of glitz and glam descending from the iconic staircase. Everyone from Netflix star Jaime Xie to Filipina actress and fashion influencer Heart Evangelista set off to the French Riviera decked out in Matara jewelry from day one.
Throughout the festival, the stars certainly brought their A-game. The red carpet saw a slew of glitzy frocks and simple yet stunning silhouettes. Brazilian bombshell Thassia Naves donned a sparkling figure-hugging Tony Ward gown with Akoya pearl and diamond jewelry from Matara Fine Jewelry and Matara High Jewelry. German influencer Leonie Hanne took a page out of the same playbook, rocking a crystallized bespoke body-sculpting jumpsuit from Georges Hobeika and jazzed up her look with an elegant pair of paved diamond earrings from the Matara Diamond collection.
While some stars stayed true to summer, showing up in white gowns, fashion risk-taker Jaime Xie when on the other side of the style spectrum and opted for a Vera Wang black tulle. In her extreme cat-eye and slicked-back hair, the dainty and sophisticated jewelry she chose from both Matara Fine Jewelry and Matara High Jewelry was indeed a fiery contrast!
Jessica Wang was another notable standout, wearing a sexy ocean-blue metallic gown from Alberta Ferretti. The Chinese-American fashionista decked herself in strings of pearls from Matara Pret-a-Porter and both the Matara Classic and Signature collections. Wang was the mermaid of the evening.
There might be an array of colors on the red carpet, but red ruled supreme. Actress Heart Evangelista walked the prestigious carpet for her first time in a stunning scarlet red couture by Tony Ward and was decked in delicate diamond-paved rings with Akoya pearls from Matara Fine Jewelry and a dazzling pair of earrings from Matara High Jewelry. She truly looked like the belle of the ball!
The 75th Cannes Film Festival was the debut year of many faces, and it was also the debut year of Matara. Matara has delivered some unique jewelry looks, with lashings of pearl and diamond from both the high jewelry and fine jewelry line. It was indeed a momentous occasion for the brand and definitely a year to remember for founders Jongjin “Jin” Jungsura, Salil “Tangmo” Andraphan, and Patchaploy “Prae” Matarungsombat.
“We don’t take for granted moments like this. It was so surreal to be able to style Thassia Naves, Jessica Wang, Jaime Xie, Leonie Hanne, and Heart Evangelista! We are truly grateful and humbled!”, exclaimed Jin, co-founder and marketing director of Matara.
