While there have been plenty of memorable looks at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival this season, Jennifer Connelly‘s shimmering, silvery, off-the-shoulder Louis Vuitton gown certainly stood out! The Top Gun: Maverick star, 51, promoted her new film and graced the festival’s red carpet in a custom-made dress with stunning metallic silver threads.

The show-stopping item, the brand revealed, was designed by Nicolas Ghesquière, creative director of the luxury French fashion house. Connelly accessorized and paired her glamorous gown with white gold and diamond rings from the Maison’s High Jewelry Collection and wore her dark-brown locks into an elegant and timeless updo. She also rocked subtle black eyeliner to emphasize her crystal-blue eyes, light mascara, a touch of highlighter and rosy blush along her cheekbones.

Connelly posed with her Top Gun co-stars on the red carpet, including Tom Cruise, Glen Powell, and director Joseph Kosinski. The star-studded film also features Miles Teller, Jay Ellis, Ed Harris, Jon Hamm and Val Kilmer also returning to his 1986 role.

After the event, Connelly spoke with People Magazine about how “honored” she was to be a part of the much-hyped sequel and to see Cruise return to one of his most beloved characters.

She dubbed the new film “a beautiful tribute to Tom and his career.” The Labyrinth icon added, “The reel at the beginning of the film, it was so impressive and so moving and he’s really an extraordinary actor, so that was really beautiful, and was beautiful to see the acknowledgement, and watch him see it.”

Regarding the Cannes premiere (where she and her gown took everyone’s breath away) she said, “it felt really celebratory being” there and that “it was wonderful that people seemed to enjoy it, all the screenings that I’ve been to so far. People have seemed to have had a great time.”
