At the 2026 amfAR Gala Cannes at the 79th Annual Cannes Film Festival, Heidi Klum stunned in a plunging see-through corset gown from Sophie Couture. Her look for the event was the perfect blend of gothic romance and high-octane glamour. On May 19, the longtime model attended the Killian Paris party in a high-slit, cutout brown dress from Maria Lucia Hohan.
Heidi Klum takes on amfAR Gala Cannes in plunging Sophie Couture gown with see-through lace-up corset
Heidi Klum wore a look from Sophie Couture’s Fall 2027 collection. The $5,000 black dress had a structured, strapless corset bodice and a voluminous skirt. The bodice featured rounded matte black cups that framed a dramatic, plunging sweetheart neckline. Below it, the corset transitioned into a sheer, floral black lace adorned with delicate embroidery and subtle embellishments that caught the light. A contrasting silver crystal lace-up detail ran down the center, lending a modern edge to the vintage-inspired piece.
The gown cinched at the waist before flowing down into a voluminous, floor-sweeping ballgown skirt. Crafted from tafetta, the skirt was gathered at the hip before flaring outwards slightly to create an imposing shape. The rich fabric caught the light and contrasted with the sheer transparency of the lace bodice above.
Klum kept her accessories minimal to maintain the focus on the beautiful design. She wore her hair in effortless, voluminous waves with a center part, highlighting honey-blonde highlights. Further, her long, face-framing layers cascaded gently over her shoulders. Meanwhile, her makeup featured a soft smoky eye, defined lashes, and a glossy nude lip. Long, almond-shaped, light pink nails and a singular, oversized statement diamond ring added the finishing touches to her look.
On May 18, the German model attended the Cannes Film Festival in a custom Monique Lhuillier dress. The form-fitting column gown featured a sweetheart neckline and gold baroque-style embroidery on a nude underlay. She also wore a structural cream satin opera cape draped off her shoulders, adding volume to her look.
