The Venice Film Festival once again became the epicenter of glamour and cinematic celebration as the highly anticipated premiere of In the Hand of Dante lit up the red carpet. Among the international stars who made an impression was actress Silvia Kal, who stunned photographers and press in a striking golden gown designed by Kaiane Designs, perfectly paired with elegant earrings from Colombian brand Patricia Acosta Jewelry.
Kal, who we have seen in films like the Amazon movie Awareness, has been keeping a busy schedule. Fresh from completing one of the biggest upcoming U.S. TV shows for Peacock — a project still under wraps — her latest TV series, produced by Telemundo and SkyShowtime, Nails, is coming out this October. Silvia, who lives in Los Angeles, headed back to Europe making a stop in Venice on her way to Spain, where she is about to begin shooting a new movie for Amazon.
On the red carpet of the Venice Film Festival, she joined Oscar Isaac, known for Star Wars, and Jason Momoa, the Aquaman star. Both actors lead In the Hand of Dante, the long-awaited film by acclaimed director Julian Schnabel. The movie, adapted from Nick Tosches’ cult novel, weaves together a tale of mysticism, history, and art, following dual storylines between Dante Alighieri and a contemporary narrative of crime and obsession.
Adding to the red carpet spectacle, Jason Momoa brought his signature bold style to the evening, wearing a blush pink suit on the red carpet. But it’s the details that took his outfit to the next level. The Aquaman actor wore light pink fuzzy Birkenstocks and painted his toenails pink to match, a very unusual red carpet look. To finish up the look, he wore his hair down paired with black sunglasses.
Oscar Isaac opted for a more discrete elegant wine color Louis Vuitton suit that captured all the flashes.
In another highlight of the evening, the director Julian Schnabel was honored with the Cartier Glory to the Filmmaker Award.
While the buzz surrounding the film was palpable, Silvia Kal’s presence turned heads and captured the attention of photographers and press alike. Her golden gown shimmered under the Venetian lights, made her one of the evening’s most radiant personalities at the 82nd edition of the festival.
