Monica Barbaro Faces Wardrobe Mishap at Venice Film Festival
Actress Monica Barbaro experienced a small wardrobe malfunction while attending the Venice International Film Festival on August 29. The incident took place as she walked the red carpet for the premiere of her boyfriend Andrew Garfield’s new film, After the Hunt.
As Barbaro made her arrival, strong winds played with her outfit, causing the overlay of her elegant black Christian Dior gown to puff up unexpectedly. In a moment reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe, she managed to keep her composure and quickly restored her gown to its original shape. Eyewitness footage showed the actress smiling as she brushed her hair away from her face and posed for photographers, showing grace under pressure.
Despite the brief hiccup, Barbaro was well-prepared, wearing a black slip under her gown that ensured she remained covered. Her look was simple yet stunning, featuring minimal accessories, which allowed her dress to stand out. The gown boasted a high neck, pleated details, and elegant ribbon accents.
At the event, Barbaro showcased her support for Garfield, who starred in the film. While she took the spotlight alone on the red carpet, Garfield took the opportunity to shine separately as the film’s lead.
Earlier that day, the couple was seen together in Venice, hand in hand, arriving for the film’s world premiere. Although Barbaro does not star in this film, she and Garfield both have exciting projects ahead; they are working together with renowned director Luca Guadagnino on another film titled Artificial.
Rumors of their relationship first sparked in February when they were spotted enjoying time together discreetly, though neither has publicly confirmed their romance. Throughout the year, they have been seen together at various events, further fueling speculation about their status.
With her rising stardom, defined by her role as Joan Baez in A Complete Unknown, Barbaro is making waves not just in the film industry but also on the fashion front. Her appearances continue to turn heads, including her remarkable look at the recent Met Gala, where she dazzled in a recreation of a classic Dior design.
Barbaro’s ability to handle unexpected moments with elegance is just one of the many reasons she remains a captivating figure in Hollywood.
