Whereas the phrase “archival” could connote items from prior many years, Natalie Portman is making the case that the time period can be utilized for more moderen (and uncommon) types—particularly these from six years in the past. Attending the premiere of The Zone of Curiosity on the Cannes Movie Pageant, Portman dazzled in a strapless Dior robe from the model’s fall/winter 2017 assortment.

Whereas the runway model options branded straps, Portman determined to go with out them for her premiere look (maybe to accent the blinding Chopard jewels on her neck). The Dior piece’s ombre sequins delicately fade from a pale to darkish blue and are accented by a skinny black belt on the waist. There’s additionally an overlay of blue tulle positioned on the skirt—a element that appeared particularly beautiful because the actress moved all through the carpet.

Portman stars alongside Julianne Moore within the movie Might December which is about to premiere on the pageant this weekend. The 41-year-old performs the position of Elizabeth, an actress who travels to Maine to review Gracie Atherton-Yoo (performed by Moore) for an upcoming position impressed by the latter’s 20-year age distinction together with her husband (performed by Riverdale alum Charles Melton). It’s a plot certain to attract comparisons to the Mary Kay Letourneau scandal of the ‘90s.
