Natalie's Cannes 2025 paid homage to the early era of the house of Christian Dior by taking her outfit inspiration from a circa. 1951 couture piece. While the original ensemble was a work of art in the classic hues of black and gold. Portman added a twinkle to the look by combining black velour and shades of silver that underwent approximately 700 hours of work to create the masterpiece. 450 hours of these 700 were commissioned by Atelier Safrane to attain the perfection of the hand work embroidery done all over the A-line skirt.

Natalie's tresses were styled into a sleek high bun that let her glam and outfit do all the talking. Makeup wise too, she kept things statement yet minimal with a fresh and beaming complexion, feathered brows, a black winged eyeliner defined eyes, a coral lip and touch of blush that added a hint of colour to her visage while allowing the ensemble to take centre stage.
