Kate Beckinsale wore sheer micro-shorts on the Cannes carpet

Sheer dress, goodbye; sheer bodysuit, hello! Kate Beckinsale said give me glitter and give me legs, and her designer said, Bet.

Beckinsale attended the red-carpet premiere of The Pot au Feu at the Cannes Film Festival in a sheer, bejeweled body suit that boasts long sleeves and short shorts. The colour can only be described as that of every 2000s girl’s dream car. Thanks to crystal embellishments and chandelier-like strings of beads, it’s actually not that revealing. Reminds me a bit of Taylor Swift’s bodysuit in the cover art for her new collab with Ice Spice, or the sheer-with-embellishments gown Beckinsale wore in March. Still, it’s no match for the levels of see-through displayed by Irina Shayk, who wore underwear and, like, a piece of netting and called it a day.

This is Cannes, baby—you can’t just slip into something sparkly. Beckinsale also wore a voluminous silk skirt tied at her waist, giving the whole thing an updated Charles James silhouette (not James Charles, which I originally typed; very different person).

Kate Beckinsale completed the look with dark nails, platform heels, a bouncy updo, and jade earrings. Super spring-y!
