Romee Strijd looked incredible as she graced the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival premiere of Monster on Wednesday night.
The Victoria’s Secret Angel, 27, was very leggy in a glamorous black dress with two daring thigh-high slits.

The Cannes red carpet is coming back to life as the 76th Film Festival kicked off with the premiere of the Louis XV drama Jeanne du Barry on Tuesday.
And on Wednesday, the premiere of Monster took place at the iconic film festival with celebrities such as Gemma Chan and Amy Jackson.
The film’s synopsis reads, “When her young son Minato starts behaving strangely, his mother senses something is wrong. Discovering that a teacher is responsible, she storms into the school demanding to know what is going on.
But as the story unfolds through the eyes of mother, teacher, and child, the truth gradually emerges. Palme d’Or winner and internationally acclaimed director Kore-Eda Hirokazu returns with a delicate, powerfully moving story about love, duty, social conflicts and secrets.’
This year’s festival promises a Côte d’Azur buffet of spectacle, scandal and cinema served over the next 12 days.
It unfolds against the backdrop of labor unrest. Protests that have stirred France in recent months over changes to the pension system will take place during the festival, albeit at a distance from the main festival hub.
Meanwhile, an ongoing strike by screenwriters in Hollywood could have unpredictable consequences for the festival on the French Riviera.
But with a festival packed with some highly anticipated, big-budget films, including James Mangold’s Indiana Jones and the Dial of the Destiny and Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon, the party is sure to go on anyway.
The largest film festival in the world will conclude with the closing ceremony on May 27.

Previously, Romee revealed on her YouTube account how she was discovered and became an angel in 2015.
Romee started in the modeling world at the age of 13, after being scouted on the streets of Amsterdam while shopping with her mother.
At first she was hesitant to try it out, but she soon gained weight, despite still being in high school and wearing braces.
Eventually, her new agent pitched her to London Fashion Week, where she modeled for Burberry, before moving on to the exclusive Prada show at Milan Fashion Week.
Since then, Romee hasn’t looked back and has been steadily gaining popularity and appeal, now with 7.9 million followers on Instagram.
Romee welcomed her second child with fiancé Laurens van Leeuwen on November 11 last year.
The couple also has a daughter Mint, whom they welcomed in December 2020.
The supermodel gave birth to Mint after years of battling polycystic ovarian syndrome, or PCOS.
“WE’RE HAVING A BABY?” she wrote when announcing her first pregnancy. ‘2 years ago I was diagnosed with PCOS after not menstruating for 7 years.

“I was devastated because being a mom and starting a family with @laurensvleeuwen is my biggest dream.
PCOS is a hormonal disorder, in which a woman’s ovaries can develop small fluid deposits and fail to release eggs regularly, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine.
“I think my weight wasn’t right for my body to function properly and couldn’t handle the constant travel,” she previously said of her condition.
“I started researching natural healing for PCOS and came to the conclusion that I should exercise much less intensely, not restrict myself in food, be kind to myself and take breaks when necessary.”
