Iconic Italian actress Monica Bellucci and acclaimed filmmaker Tim Burton painted a dazzling picture at the 21st Marrakeck International Film Festival in Marrakech, Morocco this past Saturday.
Attending a tribute ceremony for cinematic royalty, Sean Penn, the vibrant 60-year-old Bellucci looked stunning in an eye-catching red crochet jumpsuit. This statement-making attire was complemented perfectly by its scoop neckline, crochet detailing on the upper bust and similar detail running down the trouser legs.
Bellucci further enhanced her head-turning look with a matching red shawl, a silver clutch bag to tote her essentials, and dazzling accessories including a silver diamond bracelet and a diamond necklace. Her impeccable makeup only added to her flawless ensemble.
Her partner, 66-year-old Tim Burton, looked equally as fashionable in a three-piece black suit featuring a single-breasted blazer, a checked black shirt, and tailored trousers.
Complementing his suit, Burton opted for a pair of suede loafers. Both Monica and Tim posed confidently on the event’s red carpet.
At this acclaimed film festival, Sean Penn was honored through a tribute event that included a screening of Gus Van Sant’s drama film Milk. Fellow renown actor Andrew Garfield also graced the red carpet with an equally dashing ensemble ahead of the tribute ceremony.
The 41-year-old Amazing Spider-Man actor stepped out in a sleek black tuxedo with a ribbed single-breasted blazer. His monochromatic look was further elevated by a crisp black shirt, a matching bow tie, a satin cummerbund, and tailored trousers. Adding a touch of gold to his outfit was a stylish wristwatch.
In an earlier event associated with the festival’s opening ceremony on Friday, the Bellucci-Burton pair had already made their stylish presence known. Bellucci wowed in a chic black cape dress, accentuating her curvaceous figure.
With ruched detailing at the bust and a velvet cape with cream textured lining, Bellucci’s dress was a showstopper. The actress completed her ensemble with black open-toe platform heels and a mini black handbag with diamond embellishment.
Meanwhile, Burton made another sartorial statement in a three-piece suit with a black single-breasted blazer, a black-and-white polka dot shirt, and tailored trousers.
The Marrakech International Film Festival, first launched in September 2001, has been a melting pot of the world’s most eminent cinema personnel, bolstering Morocco’s reputation as a prime destination for major foreign productions.
This year’s edition of the festival opened with a high-octane thriller by the name of The Order, starring Jude Law, that weaves an engaging narrative around an FBI manhunt for the leader of a white supremacist group.
