Monica Bellucci was the epitome of glamor in a figure-hugging brown evening dress as she joined the stunning Vanessa Paradis at the Lumiere Film Festival in Lyon on Saturday.

The Italian siren, 60, who attended the opening ceremony with her partner Tim Burton, cut a glamorous figure as she showed off her curves in the ruffled, off-the-shoulder ensemble.

Monica wore her glossy brunette locks in a straight hairstyle and opted for a sultry makeup palette for the opening ceremony of the French Film Festival.

Sticking with the brown theme, the actress carried her belongings around in a glittering handbag and accessorized with an array of silver jewelry.

Monica was joined at the star-studded festival by French singer and model Vanessa, 51, who looked stunning in a plunging black, glittering dress with a mesh cutout and a matching jacket.

Vanessa showed off her natural beauty by wearing minimal makeup and letting her blonde wavy locks flow freely over her shoulders.

Puerto Rican actor Benicio del Toro, 57, also attended the French event and gave a dapper performance in a navy blue suit.

The Lumiere Film Festival is an annual film festival held every October in Lyon, the birthplace of the Lumière Cinematograph, which focuses on classic cinema.

The line-up is mostly dedicated to works from the past through restored prints, retrospectives and tributes.

Last month, Monica put on a busty show in a black dress at the 72nd San Sebastian International Film Festival in Spain with her partner Tim.

Monica stunned in the long-sleeved dress which was slightly off-the-shoulder before plunging down the middle to expose her cleavage.

The solid-colored dress cinched her waist and almost reached the floor, and Monica complemented it with pitch black sunglasses.

To add more glamor to her look, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice actress Monica added a diamond necklace and a black clutch.

Tim looked sharp in an all-black suit and tinted glasses as he sweetly held the Italian siren’s hand.

The red carpet that Monica and Tim graced was for the premiere of Monica’s film Maria Callas: Letters And Memoirs.

Maria Callas: Letters And Memoirs is a documentary about Monica and the cast’s experiences performing the play of the same name from 2019 to 2023.

Monica and her team took the Paris play on a European and American tour, visiting London, Spoleto in Italy, Athens, Monaco, Los Angeles, New York and many more.

The play tells the story of Maria Callas, an American-born Greek soprano who was one of the most renowned and influential opera singers of the 20th century.

Despite a career as an actress spanning more than 30 years, Maria Callas: Letters and Memoirs marked Monica’s stage debut.

Monica, who suffers from stage fright, told Opera Wire about her role: ‘I knew the great singer, the performer. Even when I did Mozart in the Jungle, I approached Callas to learn the pose, as I did with [Anna] Netrebko and [Montserrat] Caballe.

‘But I didn’t know anything about Maria, the Onassis story, or that she was an incredible diva Divina. But when Tom Volf came to me with this project, he gave me these letters, these memoirs, and I realized the woman, the person. It was a completely different story because I was able to tap into her vulnerabilities and sensitivity.

‘That’s why I couldn’t resist, even though it was the first time I was on stage when I read those letters and memoirs. I said, “I’m scared, but I want to do it because those letters and memoirs really inspired me, and I want to share them with someone else.”

Maria Callas was born in 1923 and died in 1977, enjoying a romance with Jackie Kennedy’s second husband Aristotle Onassis.

At the end of the premiere, Monica graciously took the time to interact with fans standing behind a barrier.

Monica and Tim have been dating since October 2023 and he directed her in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice – their first project together.

Monica has been married twice before and has two children; Tim also has two children but was once married, although he was in a long-term relationship with Helena Bonham Carter.
