Sophie Turner doesn’t need Cannes to command a spotlight in the South of France. The Joan star landed in Avignon for Louis Vuitton’s Cruise 2026 show, proving once again that she’s mastered the art of modern elegance—with a playful twist. Hosted at the historic Palais des Papes, the show merged heritage grandeur with high-concept fashion, and Turner’s look perfectly embodied that fusion.
Her outfit? A sartorial gem—literally. Dressed in a deep navy Louis Vuitton co-ord emblazoned with a graphic gemstone print, Turner stepped into the front row with the quiet confidence of a style sovereign. The jacket, sharp at the shoulders and cinched at the waist, recalled the dramatic tailoring of royal armor, while the matching micro shorts added a daring counterbalance. Scattered across both pieces were illustrations of yellow sapphires, blue topaz, and crystal-clear gems, punctuated by the unmistakable LV monogram—a nod to luxury without excess.
She grounded the opulence with a pair of chunky Berlin pumps in optic white and black, adding a sculptural edge to the look. A two-tone leather mini bag in grayscale and a navy manicure gave her look coherence without predictability.
In true Riviera spirit, Turner isn’t simply in town to model front-row fashion. She recently wrapped a short film collaboration with St-Germain, set against the dreamy French backdrop. The whimsical clip shows her preparing for a date night with equal parts spontaneity and sparkle—pre-made snacks, spritzes on tap, and that same signature charm she brings to every red carpet moment.
Turner’s presence alongside A-listers like Emma Stone, Cate Blanchett, Chloë Grace Moretz, and Jaden Smith reinforced the Cruise show’s cultural cachet. But it’s Turner’s ability to merge drama with levity—whether she’s channeling royal roles or sipping Hugo Spritzes—that makes her a true fashion force.
And if her past comments to Voke Magazine are anything to go by, her summer mood board remains firmly on-brand. “What do a spritz and I have in common?” she mused.
“We’re both pretty flirty… I hope I’m refreshing”
Judging by her Avignon ensemble, she’s more than refreshing—she’s redefining Riviera cool.
