Few French actresses opt for the crop top on the red carpet. In this small handful that dares, we can count on Adèle Exarchopoulos. On Saturday night, when climbing the steps of the closing ceremony, the actress bet on a Valentino outfit that shakes up the established order of a classic suit and tie. Using a chaperone-style long-tail hood, a pair of Bulgari earrings and a crop top shirt revealing her navel, Adèle Exarchopoulos went on a crusade against the rigorous symbolism of the trouser suit. And against gender boundaries around the tie.

Gimmick fashion
A few hours before the start of the climb of the steps, the French actress had already played the game of the high court in front of the photocall of the animated film Élémentaire - of which she provides one of the French voices -, presented at the closing of the 76th edition of the Cannes Film Festival this Saturday, May 27. A casual outfit, consisting of a bustier representing a Renaissance style painting and wide Carhartt jeans. A small fashion gimmick also found during her first climb of the steps of this 76th edition, on May 17, where she had worn a bustier (Fendi) by associating it with a long skirt with pearl fabric, cut mermaid style.
