Cannes Film Festival: Elle Fanning flashes sideboob in a plunging caped gown with a delicate daisy print at the closing ceremony of the glitzy event

Elle Fanning showed off her cleavage in a dangerously plunging dress on Saturday as she attended the closing ceremony of the 77th Cannes Film Festival.

The American actress, 26, looked stunning in a dramatic cream-colored hooded dress as she posed for photos on the red carpet.

Elle’s backless dress featured a semi-sheer front and a delicate daisy print, which showed off every inch of her slim figure.

The star beamed as she stood at the side of the grand red stairs, one beautiful bracelet in hand.

The annual Cannes Film Festival, which showcases new films of all genres and from all countries, kicked off on May 14.

The actress has not been seen in a film since 2020, but that will soon change as she is currently filming the biographical historical drama A Complete Unknown with Timothée Chalamet.

The film follows Bob Dylan (Timothée) from the beginning of his career to his controversial departure from folk music.

Cannes is the world’s largest film festival, first conceived in 1939 as an alternative to the then fascist-influenced Venice Film Festival.

It has been held annually since 1946, except in 1948 and 1950, when it was canceled due to lack of funds.

The festival is known for its carefully selected program of films that achieved Oscar success or launched the careers of directors such as Quentin Tarantino.

Cannes’ top prize is the Palme d’Or, or Palme d’Or, whose previous winners include Taxi Driver, Apocalypse Now, Pulp Fiction, The Pianist and Parasite.

Jane Campion became the first female director to win the award in 1993 with The Piano, followed by a gap of almost three decades until Julia Ducournau received the award for Titane in 2021.

Last year, Justine Triet became only the third female director to receive the award with Anatomy of a Fall.

The Cannes Film Festival also presents the honorary Palme d’Or, which is awarded in recognition of notable bodies of work, including Harrison Ford, Jane Fonda and Clint Eastwood.

There are two honorees this year: George Lucas of “Star Wars” and “Indiana Jones,” and Japanese animation legend Studio Ghibli, the first group to receive the award.

Elle is the younger sister of fellow actress Dakota Fanning, 30, whose supernatural horror film The Watchers is in post-production.

Elle rose to fame in 2003 when she played Jamie in the hit comedy Daddy Day Care, but she is perhaps best known for her role in the Maleficent films.

She made her film debut as a child as the younger version of her sister’s character in the drama film I Am Sam (2001).

Elle is currently dating Rolling Stone CEO Gus Wenner, 34, and the two looked gorgeous together at this year’s Met Gala.
