Margaret Qualley was also standing strong for the glamorous night and pulled out all the stops for the big occasion.
The American actress cut a demure figure for the event in a chic blush coloured dress, that featured swooping sleeves that fell elegantly down her shoulders.

Margaret looked extremely youthful for the event and sported a flawless complexion.
And she made the most of her perfect canvas as she drew attention to her piercing peepers with a flick of eyeliner and accentuated her cheekbones with a dusting of peachy blush.
The star of The Maid opted for a feminine hairstyle, as she slicked her brunette locks off her face, leaving strands to fall daintily down her petite face.
They was joined by a number of other big names at the event, including star of The White Lotus Aubrey Plaza who put on a very animated display for the red carpet.
The 40-year-old actress looked stunning while attending the premiere of the new movie Honey Don't - her first red carpet since the death of her husband Jeff Baena.
Jeff, who was 47, tragically died by suicide back in January. It was later reported that the pair had separated months before his death.
Aubrey was joined at the event by co-stars Charlie Day, Talia Ryder, and Lera Abova, as well as director and co-writer Ethan Coen and co-writer Tricia Cooke.
Honey Don't! is a dark comedy about Honey O'Donahue, a small-town private investigator, who delves into a series of strange deaths tied to a mysterious church.
The film earned a six-minute standing ovation.
Ahead of Cannes Margaret told I-D that that she had to dial back her 'natural Scooby-Doo' instincts in order to play Honey, who is 'skillful, she's smooth, she is slipping in and out undetected… I had to be a little more suave than I am, more mysterious. I tend to want to diffuse things before they even happen.'
This year's Cannes Film Festival is taking place in the wake of Trump´s vow to enact tariffs on international films.

Cannes, where filmmakers, sales agents and journalists gather from around the world, is the Olympics of the big screen, with its own golden prize, the Palme d´Or, to give out at the end.
Filmmakers come from nearly every corner of the globe to showcase their films while dealmakers work through the night to sell finished films or packaged productions to various territories.
Trump sent shock waves through Hollywood and the international film community when he announced on May 4 that all movies ' produced in Foreign Lands ' will face 100 percent tariffs.
The White House has said no final decisions have been made. Options being explored include federal incentives for U.S.-based productions, rather than tariffs. But the announcement was a reminder of how international tensions can destabilize even the oldest cultural institutions.
The Cannes Film Festival originally emerged in the World War II years, when the rise of fascism in Italy led to the founding of an alternative to the then-government controlled Venice Film Festival.
In the time since, Cannes´ resolute commitment to cinema has made it a beacon to filmmakers. Countless directors have come to make their name.

This year is no different, though some of the first-time filmmakers at Cannes are already particularly well-known.
Kristen Stewart (The Chronology of Water), Scarlett Johansson (Eleanor the Great) and Harris Dickinson (Urchin) have all unveiled their feature directorial debuts in Cannes´ Un Certain Regard sidebar section.
Many Cannes veterans have returned, including Tom Cruise (Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning), Robert De Niro - who received an honorary Palme d´Or 49 years after Taxi Driver premiered in Cannes - and Quentin Tarantino, who paid tribute to low-budget Western director George Sherman.
Over recent years the star-studded extravaganza has arguably won more attention for the outfits worn by its celebrity guests than the roster of feature films being screened on the Croisette.
But new nudity rules, devised for 'the sake of decency,' have been implemented at this year's festival.
According to organisers, the austere move is an attempt to stifle the celebrity trend for 'naked dresses' - namely provocative outfits that reveal considerably more than they conceal - on the red carpet.
'For decency reasons, nudity is prohibited on the red carpet, as well as any other area of the festival,' states a Cannes festival document.

'The festival welcoming teams will be obligated to prohibit red carpet access to anyone not respecting these rules.'
The surprise new policy features in a recent festival-goers charter - released with a series of outlines regarding expected public behaviour.
Guests are expected to converge on the Grand Auditorium Louis Lumière for some of the highest profile film screenings across a packed two-week schedule in Cannes.
It's understood that the iconic venue now adopts a more conservative dress code, with suits, dinner jackets and floor-length evening gowns generally favoured over headline grabbing ensembles.
Classic little black dresses, cocktail dresses, pant-suits, dressy tops and elegant sandals, 'with or without a heel', will also be permitted.
While the decision to implement a more stringent policy will be a first, it is not known if French TV broadcasters, wary of airing nudity, played a role in its enforcement.

Recently attracting more models and influencers than actors and filmmakers, the annual ceremony has seen an increase in risque red carpet fashion statements.
In 2021, American supermodel Bella Hadid bared her cleavage in a plunging black gown while attending a screening of Tre Piani (Three Floors).
She pulled a similar stunt three years later, with guests at the 2024 gala left speechless after she attended the premiere of Donald Trump biopic The Apprentice completely braless beneath a sheer brown evening dress.
