She turned every head at the premiere of Habernus Papam at Cannes yesterday in a plunging white dress, but Cheryl Cole still decided to show off a more modest gown later in the evening.

After watching the Italian drama at Cannes Film Festival, the 27-year-old popped over to the L’Oreal after party in a shimmering gold long-sleeved gown.

The figure-hugging dress made sure to keep all attention on her for the remainder of the evening, as she strutted around in the stunning ensemble.

Her footwear was hidden once again under her mermaid-inspired train and she accessorised the outfit with a bright red clutch.

She started her day by wearing the plunging white Stephane Rolland dress, which left very little to the imagination.

But Cheryl managed to look both sexy and elegant in the white creation.

Cheryl teamed the dress with an unusual belt, which featured what appeared to be two gold pears on the front, and gold clutch bag.

The X Factor USA star also opted for a different look with her hair and make-up, going for a slicked-back ponytail and dark plum-coloured lipstick.

The choice was a sharp contrast to Cheryl’s usual appearance of voluminous hair and fresh-faced make-up.
Perhaps the reason for that was because fellow X Factor USA judge Simon Cowell had offered Cheryl some advice.

A source said: ‘Simon told her he didn’t love her orange top and purple flares – he said he had seen her look far more glamorous.

‘He’s really keen for her to boost her international profile in Cannes and has urged her to look fantastic.’

Cheryl appeared poised and confident as she posed for photographers on the red carpet at the premiere.

She then decided to make an appearance at the party hosted by L’Oreal, the cosmetics company of which she is the face.

It’s the second year running Cheryl has made an appearance at Cannes.
