The Cannes Film Festival kicks off today, promising a 12-day whirlwind of sun-drenched, old-world glamour that can already be felt in every head of windswept waves and crisp trenchcoat now touching down in Nice, France.
But does any Croisette-bound star embody modern French cool quite like this year’s jury member Vanessa Paradis? Since shooting to fame at age 14 with the iconic 1987 pop hit “Joe le Taxi,” the singer and César-winning actress has shown as much range in her beauty transformations as she has in a career that has spanned four decades.
During her ingenue years, Paradis set off her plush lips, gapped teeth, and feline gaze with eyelash-skimming bangs that recalled a young Jane Birkin, soon after trading in her lanky blowouts for the kind of fuzzy, air-dried texture that remains the ultimate It-Parisienne accessory. Since then, the Chanel muse of 25 years has pulled off a covetable lineup of honeyed balayage waves, rich brunette dye jobs, and smooth blonde bobs that look as good with a bright red lip as they do with soft washes of nude makeup—even delivering the occasional twinning hair moment with her look-alike daughter, Lily-Rose Depp.
Just in time for tonight’s opening ceremony, here’s a look back at Paradis’s 18 best beauty moments.
