Bella Hadid has arrived in Cannes.
The model, who is known for preferring vintage, is in Cannes, France and is expected to attend events in connection with the annual film festival taking place. For one of her first appearances, Hadid was spotted wearing a pair of vintage pink suede kitten heels while walking outside Le Majestic Hotel.
Hadid is a well-documented fan of vintage finds, and has often been spotted in a pair of late-1990s Prada boots. That square-toe, black leather style is the brand’s Linea Rossa boot from 1999.
The Cannes Film Festival is one of the most coveted annual film festivals globally. The event boasts a variety of film premieres spanning genres, as well as talkbacks and other events. Its red carpets and photocalls have become some of the most watched fashion events of each year. Hadid has been attending the event since 2015. She typically attends the amfAR Gala and also makes appearances at other events.

Prada’s History
Launched by Mario Prada in 1914, the Italian brand is a global behemoth in luxury fashion. It initially made its name in leather goods. Over time, that grew to also incorporate the use of nylon in both bags and clothing. Since 1978, Miuccia Prada, granddaughter of Mario Prada, has been the lead designer of the label. In 2020, Belgian designer Raf Simons joined the brand as co-creative director. The company has won a Council of Fashion Designers of America award for its accessories in the past.
