In flip flops and a Dior dress: Jennifer Lawrence defies the rules in Cannes

He was one of the most anticipated faces to hit the red carpet at Cannes. Within the framework of the 67th edition of the film festival that is hosted by the French Riviera, Jennifer Lawrence has produced a small documentary and has attended the premiere of the French film Anatomy of a Fall, in which she has been impacted by her peculiar choice of style. And it is that to avoid the stumbling blocks that have made it viral on other red carpets, the interpreter has decided to avoid heels.

With a spectacular red dress that evokes the golden age of Hollywood and is signed by Christian Dior, Lawrence posed before the thousands of cameras that gather these days at the gates of the Palace of Festivals and Congresses in the city. A spectacular design that she combined with a shawl in the same fabric and tone and that has made her one of the best dressed of this edition.

But when going down the great staircase covered by the red carpet, the actress slightly raised her skirt and revealed the footwear she had chosen: a pair of black flip-flops. Far from trying to hide them and with a wide smile on her face, the actress declares war on the dizzying heels that have played a trick on her on other occasions.

Like her, many other celebrities have challenged the dress codes for this type of event, advocating comfortable shoes or even going barefoot on the red carpet.

A couple of years ago, the actress Kristen Stewart posed in Cannes with her high heels in front of the cameras and then she took off her shoes and entered comfortably at the premiere of the film BlacKkKlansman. An act of rebellion that they had already starred in other famous editions such as Nicole Kidman, in 2003 or Julia Roberts in the 2016 edition.
