So This Is How Bella Hadid Wore THAT Jaw-Dropping Dress Without Flashing Her Vagina

To say that the red Alexandre Vauthier gown that Bella Hadid wore on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet last week was a little risque, might be somewhat of an understatement.

Given its to-the-waist thigh split and its midriff-grazing plunging neckline we were impressed that Bella didn’t end up showing off a little more than she intended.

So just how did she manage to pull off that stunzo gown without flashing her modesty to dozens of paps?

Chatting to Vanity Fair, her stylist Elizabeth Sulcer tells all.

Firstly, she needed to make sure the dressing fitted absolutely perfectly before Bella debuted it at Cannes “Every aspect of the dress was planned… you have to consider everything,” says Elizabeth. “A fitting is not the same as wearing the dress. Bella is smart and confident, and we knew she could wear that dress.”

Once they’d found the perfect fit, it was all about keeping everything in place on the red carpet.

“The dress has a built-in silk bodysuit,” Elizabeth reveals. Tit tape was also essential: “Top-stick [tape] is always a good idea. Practice makes perfect,” she adds.

So it’s oodles of tit tape, a bodysuit and a stack load of confidence to keep everything secure, yeah?

Hats off to you, Bella. Somehow we’re not sure we’d have the confidence to pull off a similar number down Copper’s on a Saturday night.
