Toni Garrn Sparkles In Cannes

Supermodel Toni Garrn turned heads as she stepped onto the red carpet at the 77th Cannes Film Festival. Clad in a glittering strapless gown, she exuded old-Hollywood glamour against the Côte d’Azur backdrop. Cameras flashed and onlookers cheered as Garrn struck her signature poses for the cameras, reinforcing her status as one of the season’s style icons.

Meet The Team Behind The Glam

Garrn’s polished look was a true team effort. Stylist Amar­sana G. selected the shimmering ensemble, while hairstylist Ilham Mestour crafted her smooth, side-swept waves. Lead makeup artist Kelly McClain of AFRAME Agency delivered a radiant complexion and soft smoky eye that perfectly complemented the gown’s metallic tones. In a supporting Instagram post, McClain tagged both Toni and the festival, highlighting how color and light worked in harmony on the carpet.

Kelly McClain (@makeupbykellymcclain) has become a Cannes staple. From sculpted cheekbones to glossy lips, her layered techniques bring out each star’s natural radiance. At Garrn’s side, McClain used highlighter and subtle contouring to accentuate the model’s bone structure under the festival’s bright lights.

Kelly Mcclain’s Cannes Beauty Resume

McClain’s Cannes credits read like a who’s who of fashion and film. Earlier this week, she glammed up Joan Smalls at the festival premiere, creating a chic matte finish paired with a classic red lip. Days before, she collaborated with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley on a Balenciaga look—combining rose-toned shadow and a dewy glow for an ethereal effect.

On opening night, Shani­na Shaik arrived with bronzed skin and a graphic eyeliner look that juxtaposed her shimmering gown. Around the Croisette, McClain also worked backstage with Sabrina Elba and Cindy Bruna, delivering everything from natural-tone eyeshadow palettes to supersized lashes. Outside the festival walls, McClain recently styled Natalie Portman for Porter magazine’s Cannes cover, proving her versatility extends from film premieres to editorial shoots.

As the week continues, McClain’s touch will remain a talking point. Her ability to balance enduring elegance with on-trend details has cemented her reputation among models, actresses, and stylists alike.

From Toni Garrn’s radiant entrance to the final evening screenings, the Cannes red carpet remains a showcase of sartorial excellence—and Kelly McClain’s beauty brush is at the center of it all. Her work underscores the festival’s fusion of film, fashion, and glamour, ensuring every celebrity moment looks picture-perfect under the Riviera sun.

In the weeks ahead, look for more Cannes recaps and insider interviews. For now, Garrn’s magnetic appearance and McClain’s flawless artistry steal the spotlight as the festival’s most memorable beauty moment yet.
