Chinese stars Fan Bingbing and Kitty Zhang steal the spotlight on Cannes red carpet

Before her fall from grace, Fan Bingbing was famously hailed as the Queen of the Cannes Film Festival red carpet, thanks to her plethora of stunning and flamboyant Oriental-themed gowns over the years. 

It looks like the 41-year-old actress, who has finally made her grand Cannes return, did not disappoint when she showed up in her usual go-big-or-go-home way to Johnny Depp's Jeanne du Barry premiere yesterday (May 16).

Bingbing, who often uses her red carpet appearances to shine a light on Chinese designers, turned up in a Christopher Bu gown that was embellished with intricate tiger and bamboo embroidery

Can we just take a moment to appreciate this masterpiece (see below)?

To match her outfit, Bingbing's hair was styled to resemble a period Chinese hairdo (see below).

Seriously, who else can look this good with grass sticking out of her head?

Meanwhile, Chinese actress Kitty Zhang, 35, managed to grab a lot of eyeballs (and then some) when she arrived at the red carpet in a super low-cut black and orange layered ball gown.
