After the Met Gala, the next big event we look forward to in the month of May is of course the Cannes Film Festival. And Alessandra Ambrosio kicked off the highly-anticipated festival with a truly spectacular look that we won’t forget any time soon!

If the 42-year-old former Victoria’s Secret Angel’s look for the premiere screening of Johnny Depp‘s new movie, Jeanne du Barry, which kicked off the 76th annual Cannes Film Festival, is anything to go by, we predict that this might be the most fashionable Cannes Film Festival of all time!

Alessandra Ambrosio Wears Vintage Elie Saab For Cannes Opening Ceremony

For the Jeanne du Barry premiere at the opening ceremony, the mom-of-two took a leaf out of so many A-listers' books and wore a vintage piece, going for a breathtaking outfit from Elie Saab's Fall/Winter 2005 Haute Couture collection. How has it taken this long for Alessandra to wear this on the red carpet?!

The Brazilian supermodel was styled by Amarsana Gendunova, and her stunning archival outfit consisted of a sheer, sparkly, burgundy Elie Saab gown with a halter-neck and a super-plunging front, and came complete with a sparkly hood and a romantic glitzy train.

Alessandra accessorized with Pomellato handcrafted contemporary fine jewelry from Milan, including a gold ring, a pair of dazzling earrings, and a red and grey necklace which looked like it was made to match the dress! Keen to let the outfit and the matching jewelry command the attention, Alessandra wore her dark brunette hair in a sleek bun, while her makeup complemented the colors of the dress and featured a smoky pink eye and a soft pink lip.

Alessandra's fans were obsessed with her whole outfit, and made their opinions known on her own post from the opening ceremony as well as her stylist's! "Amazing Ale," praised one fan, followed by three very apt fire emojis. "Goddess status," commented another. "I keep asking myself how you can possibly outdo yourself from previous years and yet you completely make my jaw drop every single time," gushed one fan, adding, "There aren’t enough adjectives to describe how captivating you are," and finishing off with three fire emojis. Another fan dropped four heart eyes emojis, while another called her a "goddess," which so many other fans agreed with for good reason.
