CANNES, France, May 22 (UPI) -- Sophia Loren is still as glamorous as ever. The 79-year-old star wowed crowds with her beauty and sophistication this week at Cannes. She is the guest of honor at this year's Cannes Film Festival, and delivered a masterclass in addition to attending events.

The actress wore a sparkling, champagne-colored gown to the Tuesday screening of Two Days, One Night. The dress was covered in metallic studs, and featured a net-like inset across the neckline.
She donned a scarlet top, pants and scarf Wednesday for the premiere of her new movie, The Human Voice. The 25-minute short film is based on the Jean Cocteau play of the same name, and is directed by her son, Edoadro Ponti.
