All eyes on her! Marion Cotillard steals the show in a stunning flowing gown on the red carpet at Blood Ties premiere 

    It's her husband's film so obviously Marion Cotillard was going to make an entrance for the premiere of Blood Ties in Cannes.
And all eyes were on the 37-year-old actress as she swept on to the red carpet in a white, yellow and black Christian Dior dress.
With her dark hair slicked into a chic French bun Marion was proudly on the arm of her co-stars Clive Owen and James Caan.

Her mullet dress showed off her legs perfectly and with its cinched in waist and pleated skirt Marion pulled off the chic look perfectly.
 
She is only the second person to wear a dress from the Dior Resort 2014 presentation, which only happened on Saturday, Princess Charlene of Monaco was the first.
Marion choose to wear the first two sustainable High Jewellery pieces of Chopard’s Green Carpet Collection at the premiere.

The exquisite diamond bracelet and earrings were beautifully hand-crafted in Chopard’s High Jewellery workshops.
She was joined on the red carpet by co-star Zoe Saldana who looked less than perfect in a drab gown.
Although high on the classy glamour her grey dress did nothing for her figure.

    The French actress elongated her seemingly endless legs even further with a pair of pointed nude stilettos by Jimmy Choo and wore her light brunette locks tousled into waves.

    Marion's husband, French director Guillaume Canet, was also in attendance at the photocall, and joined the leading ladies for a snap.
    Looking dapper in an immaculately tailored black suit and slick white shirt, it would appear the couple couldn't keep their hands off each other as they cuddled up for an intimate moment later in the afternoon. 
    Grinning as she looked into her partner's eyes, Marion was seen tenderly cupping her husband's neck as she leaned in for a kiss.
