Kristen Stewart continued her rebellious fashion streak at the Cannes Film Festival while attending the premiere of her new film, ‘Full Phil’. The actress stepped onto the red carpet in a dramatic Chanel gown from Matthieu Blazy’s Fall/Winter 2026 collection. She proved once again that she has no interest in playing by traditional Cannes style rules.
Kristen Stewart styles fully see-through Chanel dress with classic Converse at Cannes
The sleeveless red and black Chanel design featured heavily textured beaded mesh arranged in a shredded pattern across the body. The intricate detailing created peeking cutouts throughout the gown, revealing glimpses of Kristen Stewart’s skin and the black undergarments layered beneath. The body-skimming silhouette flowed down into a floor-touching hem with loose textured fringe at the bottom. This gave the see-through look even more movement on the red carpet.
Stewart kept the styling sharp and minimal to let the statement dress fully stand out. Her short brunette hair was softly shaped around her face, while a bold, glossy red lip perfectly matched the fiery tones running through the gown. She also added a subtle red watch on her wrist for another coordinated pop of color.
But the real twist came underneath the Chanel dress. Instead of classic heels, Stewart paired the couture look with black Converse-style sneakers. These featured silver grommets and thick rubber soles, as noted by WWD. Styled with white socks peeking through, the casual footwear added a sporty contrast against the intricate Chanel craftsmanship. It instantly became one of the most talked-about styling choices of Cannes.
The sneaker move also continues Stewart’s recent footwear streak throughout the festival. According to Elle, just days earlier, she paired vintage Nike sneakers with a Chanel skirt-suit. Leaning further into her signature mix of luxury fashion and laid-back streetwear.
While Cannes is known for polished glamour and towering heels, Stewart once again managed to make rebellious styling feel effortlessly cool.
