While the Cannes Film Festival puts the spotlight on the biggest movies of the year, it also attracts the most glamorous supermodels in the business.
And Naomi Campbell, 53, certainly commanded attention as she took to the red carpet on Wednesday at the Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga premiere.
The supermodel put on an age-defying display as she attend the star-studded event wearing a sparkly black dress.
She showcased her sensational physique in the garment as the skirt featured bands of mesh fabric, revealing her towering toned legs and black underwear.
Her glamorous dress was finished with a pair of elegant pearl straps and a square neckline.

Elsewhere, movie leads Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth arrived in France earlier in the week for the world premiere of their new Mad Max film.
And earlier on Wednesday Anya went braless in cardigan and hot pants as she was seen leaving her hotel ahead of the premiere.
The Queen’s Gambit star graciously stopped to take selfies with waiting fans, while keeping her eyes hidden under black sunglasses.
The flick – which is not being released to theatres until May 23 – is a prequel to lauded 2015 blockbuster Mad Max: Fury Road.
Creator George Miller has returned to helm the movie, which is an origin story for the title character, played by Charlize Theron in the previous film.
Anya takes over as the younger Furiosa in the upcoming film, which is set between 15 and 20 years before the events of Mad Max: Fury Road, while Chris is playing warlord leader, Dementus.

The Thor star, 40, described the villainous character as ‘a very violent, insane, brutal person that is born from the Wasteland’.
He added: ‘[Dementus] has been birthed into a space where it’s kill or be killed. He’s learned to rule with an iron fist. There’s a charisma to him and it’s very manipulative.’
While the full reviews won’t be in until closer to the release date, early reactions to Furiosa from a wide range of film critics have been promising.
They lauded George’s direction and were full of universal praise for the performances of Anya and Chris, with many commenting the film was a worthy addition to the franchise.
George described the prequel as ‘a saga’ that will be told over a 15-year period, which is much different from Fury Road, which spanned three days in its timeframe.
Filming for Furiosa took place in New South Wales, , beginning in June 2022 and wrapping up by October.
Anya recently admitted that filming had been a very difficult experience for her and hinted at several behind-the-scenes challenges.
In an interview with New York Times this week, she said: ‘I’ve never been more alone than making that movie.
‘I don’t want to go too deep into it, but everything that I thought was going to be easy was hard. Like I knew I was going to need the two years that it took for the movie to come out to deal with it.’

When pressed to elaborate, Anya cryptically replied: ‘Talk to me in 20 years.’
She confessed she wasn’t sure if she would be able to watch the film again, revealing she started ‘sobbing’ within ‘two minutes’ of viewing an early cut.
Anya added: ‘I wanted to be changed. I wanted to be put in a situation in extremis where I would have no choice but to grow. And I got it.
‘I will never regret this experience, on so many different levels, but it’s a very particular story to have.
