She is bound to inject drama into any red carpet. 

And Lady Victoria Hervey certainly did not disappoint as she headed to the L'Oreal Party during the annual 69th Cannes Film Festival.

The 39-year-old socialite made sure she was the talk of the bash as she slipped into an outlandish jumpsuit with a billowing cape and perilously plunging neckline.

Lady Victoria has been dazzling at all the top soirees, premieres and screenings this week - debuting racy looks at every turn - yet this is possibly her most shocking to date. 

The exquisite one-piece managed to encompass both show-stopping drama and flesh-flashing minimalism thanks to its plunging neck and cape attachment. 

With a white base, the flared trousers and Bardot neckline of the jumpsuit highlighted her slender frame while an intricate blue and black design brought the number to life. 

Although at first glance it seemed as though her chest was entirely bare, a closer look revealed a delicate sheath of nude material protecting her modesty and keeping the ensemble in place.

The long-sleeves and wide legs were drowned by the huge butterfly cape attachment, which Lady Victoria proudly exhibited by raising her arms in a show-stopping fashion.  

A black belt at the waist nipped in her slender middle while matching her peep-toe black heels although contrasting with her intricately embellished gold clutch bag. 

As she walked the red carpet, her hair was styled into an elegant coiffed blowdry with quiff teetering on top and gentle curls tumbling over her shoulders.

Blonde beauty: Her make-up was flawlessly applied, as any red carpet veteran would ensure, although as they night went on she became ever so slightly disheveled.

After her turn at L'Oreal, Lady Victoria led a star-studded contingent in heading back to the glamorous Hotel Martinez alongside Chris Brown, Toni Garrn and Kirsten Dunst. 

Although it is unknown if the unlikely humdrum of stars were celebrating together, yet the superstar-studded communal nature of the event made it entirely possible.
