Oozing elegance, the blonde beauty opted for a vibrant canary yellow gown that showed off her incredible figure - nipping in at her tiny waist and flaring out with a dramatic train.

Featuring layers of tulle, the ruffled neckline added yet more glamour to the satin dress which was embroidered with black flowers along the hem. 

Disproving the myth that blondes shouldn't yellow, the Fargo star wore her golden locks loose and tousled, styled in ringlets that framed her pretty face.

As one of the jurors at the esteemed film festival, Kirsten ensured she nailed every element of her ensemble, sporting soft make-up that complemented her gown. 

Framing her baby blue eyes with a sweep of mascara, she wore a slick of rosy gloss on her plump pout whilst a swathe of rouge accentuated her defined cheekbones. 

Fellow juror Mads Mikkelsen acted as her date for the evening, and seemed in great spirits as he wrapped a hand around the pretty blonde's waist.

Starring Elle Fanning, the talented teen plays Jesse, an aspiring model who moves to Los Angeles where her youth and vitality are devoured by a group of beauty-obsessed women who will do whatever it takes to get what she has.
