It all began in 1992. Sharon Stone appeared at the Cannes Film Festival to present the film Basic Instinct, in which she played the sultry role of Catherine Tramell, for the first time. Her first steps on the Croisette raised her to the
rank of sex symbol with a plunging dress which became as iconic as his famous legwork. But it was later, in 1998, that she confirmed her femme fatale status, in a naked dress (literally) with a cowl neck and a slit on the side. This clothing choice one of the most daring of the Cannes Film Festival of all the years combined.
Bold and sexy dresses
Over the years, the President of amfAR, a gala that aims to raise funds for the fight against AIDS, has become more confident. Cultivating a style between sexy and chic, the actress never looks vulgar in red carpet appearances at the Cannes Film Festival. The incandescent red mermaid dress she wore at the amfAR gala in 2004, and also the Balmain corseted mini dress with a long train she chose in 2009, are proof of this. Although it
was her Dolce & Gabbana princess dress in 2021, designed with a layer of blue tulle and embroidered multicolor flowers straight out of a fairytale, that won us all over. Sharon Stone’s recipe for success on the red carpet? Her perfect mastery of trends and fashion codes. And at more than sixty years old, her style is always so good!
