Hosted by former French Vogue editor Carine Roitfeld, the evening saw supers including Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Karlie Kloss and Eva Herzigova take to the runway for the Cinema Against Aids event. Hitting the Cannes red (or, in this case, blue) carpet for the first time this year, Rosie H-W rocked a white Christian Dior dress with an asymmetric hemline.
