Baptiste Giabiconi Suits Up in Dior Skirt and Stacked Boots at Cannes Film Festival 2023’s Opening Ceremony

Baptiste Giabiconi was sharply suited for the 2023 Cannes Film Festival.

While at the event’s opening ceremony and premiere of “Jeanne du Barry” on Tuesday night, Giabiconi hit the red carpet in Cannes, France in a custom Dior outfit. Designed by Kim Jones, the actor’s ensemble featured a blue and white-specked tweed vest and kilted shorts, creating the appearance of a knee-length skirt set. The pair was layered with sheer black wool “CD Diamond”-embroidered socks, as well as a smooth navy blue wool jacket.

For a glint of glamour, the former Karl Lagerfeld muse’s look was finished with a wide silver chain-link necklace embellished with sparkling silver crystals.

When it came to footwear, Giabiconi slipped on a pair of black leather boots to finish his outfit. The Chanel model’s style, also a custom Dior design featured smooth calf-high uppers with rounded shafts and toes, each accented by monochrome front stitching. His footwear was complete with low-heeled black stacked soles for a subtle height-boosting base, remaining neutral while bringing a modern take to men’s formalwear in place of a traditional Oxford or loafer shoe.
