Teyana Taylor Bares it All in Black Mônot Cut-Out Gown and Sandal Heels at the amfAR Cannes Gala 2023

Teyana Taylor attended the 2023 amfAR Cannes Gala in Cap d’Antibes, France on May 25. Rumor Rosé was an official sponsor of the event.

The “White Men Can’t Jump” star was clad in a jet black Mônot gown with gloved long sleeves and a bodycon fit. The garment featured a large low-cut angular cut-out at the midsection and on the sleeves that further diversified Taylor’s silhouette. From the cut-out, the garment transitioned into a sleek floor-sweeping skirt.

Rounding out her look, Taylor donned whimsical silver face jewelry that clung to her bottom lip worn with coordinating silver studs. As for her hair, the professional dancer wore her dark tresses in a short shaggy style.

Although her footwear was not visible thanks to the lengthy hem of her dress, it’s likely Taylor sported some sort of sandal heel in a similarly neutral tone to match her dress. Strappy sandal heels, no matter the style, are a closet staple for many celebrities, Taylor included, on and off the red carpet.

When it comes to fashion, Taylor is known for her versatility. She has a personal fashion aesthetic that combines streetwear swag with high-fashion glamorous looks. She has made a name for herself within the fashion industry by collaborating with UK-based online retailers, PrettyLittleThing and Reebok.
