Rising star Lyna Khoudri has been busy in Cannes. Throughout the annual film festival, the French-Algerian actress has been fielding interviews, making promotional appearances, and hitting the red carpet for the premiere of her new film, Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch. She plays Juliette, a radical motorcycle-riding student activist (who also happens to be costar Timothée Chalamet’s love interest).
From start to finish, Khoudri has had hairstylist Adir Abergel by her side to help coif her shoulder-grazing brunette bob for every occasion, each more glamorous than the next. Ahead of the AmFAR gala on Friday, the pair continued their streak of turning out seemingly laissez-faire hair looks, ultimately settling on a sleek ’70s-inspired bob for Khoudri to wear with her white Chanel gown and black sequined cropped jacket. A shimmering smoky eye, dewy rose lips, and a jet-black manicure completed the moody-elegant equation. Here, a behind-the-scenes look at Khoudri’s glam session in Cannes.
