Back in the summer of 2023, the Cannes Film Festival was, as always, awash with luxe designer dresses worn by the crème-de-la-crème of actresses and celebrities, renowned globally for their work in film, music and television. 

The Most Celebrated Week in Film

The Cannes Film Festival is one of the most celebrated weeks in the film calendar, with fashionistas’ eyes firmly fixed on the red carpet, eagerly awaiting to see what jaw-dropping dresses and gowns will be worn by the big stars, and which designer names will be most favoured.

Privato – Fresh Haute Couture Talent Capturing the Imagination of Fashionistas

Amongst some of the most coveted high-end designer brands, Privato was one of the newer, fresher talents showcased by beautiful Nina Verdes, who wore the dramatic Cybele evening gown, a glorious example of supreme craftsmanship and resplendent in handstitched translucent embroidered lace.  The images of Cybele can be viewed in Glamour, Vanity Fair and Elle magazines online.

As an evening gown, the Cybele is a show-stopping beauty.  Its elaborate lace features a soft, shimmer that invitingly glistens.  It is also a highly flattering shape, with a mermaid silhouette that gently hugs the female form, along with a fishtail, the perfect finishing touch to the base of the gown’s back.  Complete with sheer sleeves with spectacular cape detailing, it is a truly regal style.  Furthermore, the intricately designed bodice draws the eye but retains modesty, thanks to the sea-shell applique on the front. 

Outstanding Skills and Incredible Designs

Following the Cannes Film Festival, the Cybele dress has been a popular choice for those seeking either a highly sophisticated bridal gown or a sought-after evening dress.  There are countless other exquisite Privato designs available, each handmade and often heavily embellished in luxurious trims, crystals and embroidery.  As with any Privato gown, attention to detail is of utmost importance, as is the skill of couture stitching, the end result an example of the finest quality needlework and dressmaking skills.  The team at Privato look forward to adorning more artists at the Cannes Film Festival 2024, amongst other prestigious events.
