We can always count on Helen Mirren to bring drama to the red carpet, and she did not disappoint at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. The actor stepped out with a bright blue hair color that perfectly matched her form-fitting Del Core sky blue gown, and the actor oozed confidence while making a compelling case for dyeing your hair in the exact same shade as an outfit.
For the opening ceremony of the film festival, Mirren’s hair was curled and pinned high on her head in a Marie Antoinette style. With a closer look, clips were added to the voluminous work of art and it was clear there were variations of the color blue, ranging from navy to cobalt, with sky blue and ice blue in the mix, too. Styled by Lee Harris, her custom Del Core gown came complete with a train at the back, and a flattering V-neckline, accentuated by a diamond necklace and drop earrings. She accessorized with a fan, emblazoned with the iconic L’Oreal phrase “Worth It,” to further add to the flamboyant aesthetic and highlight her ambassadorship for the beauty brand.
This isn’t the first time Mirren has worn colored hair to the Cannes red carpet either. The star also showcased a candy floss pink look at the 2019 film festival on the French Riviera. One thing’s for sure: Mirren knows how to make a Cannes red carpet entrance. See more of her blue ‘do below.
