The INSIDER Summary:
- Bella Hadid brought her dad, Mohamed Hadid, as her date for this year's Cannes Film Festival.
- The model stunned in an elegant dress with a high slit and Bulgari jewels.
For the opening gala of the 2017 Cannes Film Festival, all eyes were on Bella Hadid and her up-to-there slit in her Alexandre Vauthier dress paired with Bulgari jewels. But once we stopped wondering how she walked the famed red carpet without a wardrobe malfunction, we focused on Hadid’s surprising date for the evening.
The model brought her father, Mohamed Hadid. All together now: awwww! The Los Angeles-based real estate mogul is pretty active on social media himself, and regularly posts about his modeling and entrepreneurial children. Yesterday he shared a few pictures of him escorting his youngest daughter that he shares with Yolanda Foster up the steps at the star-studded festival. “Good night Cannes,” Mohamed captioned the first over-the-shoulder photo, which he edited in black and white.
In the second, Bella is shown with her arms around her father at the top of the steps, and her smile says it all! After the premiere of Ismael’s Ghost, the pair ended the evening on a sweet note — with ice cream!
