“Emilia Perez” Photocall
For Sunday’s photocall, Saldana also arrived in a head-to-toe look from Saint Laurent. The star wore the brand’s double-breasted jacket in a grey gabardine, a long-sleeved draped backless bodysuit in a matching grey silk chiffon and an extra fine sheer silk pencil skirt in a light grey silk. To accessorize, Saldana paired her look with sheer black tights and several pieces of De Beers jewelry.

Directed by Jacques Audiard, the musical crime comedy follows Saldana after she gets an unexpected offer regarding a feared cartel boss’ retirement.
