Zara Larsson made sure all eyes stayed on her at the 2026 amfAR Gala in Cannes by stepping onto the red carpet in a vintage Roberto Cavalli gown featuring dramatic cutouts, sunset-inspired colors, and an almost dangerously high slit. The singer wore the archival Spring/Summer 2006 design while attending one of Cannes’ most glamorous events, instantly delivering one of the night’s boldest fashion moments.
Zara Larsson’s vintage Roberto Cavalli gown has dangerously high slit and endless cutouts
The flowing gown blended shades of yellow, orange, and green in a gradient effect that looked straight out of a tropical sunset. But it was the dress’ construction that truly stole the spotlight. The gown featured multiple cutouts across the torso, with layered horizontal bands stretching across the chest and waist before flowing into a plunging skirt with sky-high slits on both sides.
Originally shown on Roberto Cavalli’s Spring/Summer 2006 runway, the dress perfectly captures the designer’s signature era of daring glamor and bohemian excess. The chiffon fabric moved effortlessly as Zara Larsson posed for cameras, while the long, flowing train added even more drama to the already head-turning look. She paired the gown with two diamond bracelets and matching colored earrings. Her hair was left open in soft beachy waves, allowing the archival Cavalli piece to remain the focus.
As noted by Celeb Style Radar, Larsson also carried Roberto Cavalli’s Roar Bag with Bejeweled Tigers. This added another playful archival touch to the ensemble. The vibrant green bag tied into the green accents throughout the dress. She completed the look with yellow and while floral sandals. The singer’s beauty look stayed equally summery, featuring glowy skin, glossy nude lips, and subtle yellow eye makeup that complemented the gown perfectly.
Vintage fashion continues to dominate major red carpets, but Larsson’s Roberto Cavalli moment stood out for embracing the fearless energy of early-2000s runway fashion without feeling dated.
