At this year’s glamourous amfAR Gala at Cannes, celebrities from Elsa Hosk to LaQuan Smith say yes to sheer looks
Nipples and abs were free on the French Riviera this Thursday as celebs descended upon the red – well, technically blue – carpet for the annual amfAR Gala 2023 in support of The Foundation for AIDS Research.
There were sheer moments happening left right and centre, with Swedish model Elsa Hosk baring all underneath a dress straight from her own brand, Helsa. The dress, which also featured a cut out stomach segment, was an eggshell cream mesh creation, ruched at the bust and waist, with frilled hems.
Also repping the mesh moment was singer Troye Sivan, who’s in Cannes promoting the uber-controversial new HBO series The Idol, in which he stars. Sivan, not one to stick to a simple suit and tie on a red carpet, instead stepped out in a metallic grey Ferragamo vest with a sash that draped over one shoulder, paired with simple black trousers and shoes.
Next was designer LaQuan Smith, who also delivered a lesson in interesting menswear in his ivory sheer shirt, with oversized cuffs, plenty of jewellery and a matching skinny scarf of the same material, made by his own brand. Smith’s high-waisted white trousers were cinched with a silk cummerbund and he wore a pair of ocean blue, square-toed boots that almost matched the amfAR carpet.
