In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Alessandra shared her Cannes experience, saying, “The carpet experience starts before you even arrive at the Palais.”
“Driving down the Croisette can be a bit hectic, but as soon as you hit the carpet, you get the adrenalin rush, and it feels like you are in a dream.”
The tall model also shared the inspiration behind her Cannes looks. “To me, Cannes Film Festival is all about glamour. My main inspirations when thinking of what to wear for the festival are my favorite fashion icons Sophia Loren, Brigitte Bardot, Grace Kelly, and Elizabeth Taylor, but I always add my own twist on the look.”
