Meet the French independent singer and fashion icon breaking barriers in music and personal style.&nbsp;

If you've seen any coverage of the <a href="https://preview.lofficielusa.com/fashion/cannes-film-festival-2024-celebrity-red-carpet-looks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2024 Cannes Film Festival</a>, no doubt you've seen stunning looks from celebrities gracing the red carpet. However, one look in particular was a standout, coming from 29-year-old independent French artist Yseult.&nbsp;
Gracing the red carpet for the premiere of Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis,&nbsp;Yseult dressed head-to-toe in Dior, a custom couture reinterpretation of <a href="https://preview.lofficielusa.com/fashion/dior-fall-winter-2021-mizza-bricard-leopard" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dior&rsquo;s iconic 1947</a> &ldquo;New Look.&rdquo; She wore the house&rsquo;s signature Bar Jacket paired with a voluminous black pleated skirt.&nbsp;
Styled by Jonathan Huguet and accessorized with black gloves and a black straw hat by Stephen Jones Millinery, Yseult channeled the iconic Willy Maywald photograph that defined <a href="https://preview.lofficielusa.com/fashion/dior-rosalia-new-global-ambassador-bag-lady-dior-photo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dior&rsquo;s</a> groundbreaking debut collection.

Besides a clear fashion icon, who is Yseult? The rising star has several successful singles that challenge societal norms of body image and French classicism and has been recognized for her dedication and hard work.&nbsp;
L'OFFICIEL does a deep dive into everything you need to know about Yseult, since this won't be the last time you hear her name.&nbsp;

Yseult produces her own music, assembled her own team without traditional management, and serves as the CEO of her independent label, Y.Y.Y. / I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA (IHNFI). Through IHNFI, she aims to create an artistic space that celebrates individuality and allows her full control over her music and artistic identity.

Yseult first gained popularity in 2019

She first captured attention in 2019 with her hit piano ballad "Corps," a song that challenged mainstream narratives on body image, achieved diamond chart status, and went viral on TikTok with over 24 million YouTube views. Her recent singles, "BITCH YOU COULD NEVER" and "SUICIDE," mark her first foray into English-language music, featuring a raw, confessional style set against the backdrop of New York City streets.

She was a collaborator on Kanye West's Vultures 2

Yseult's career is marked by numerous accolades and high-profile collaborations. She won the "Best Female Revelation" award at the 2021 Victoires de la Musique, worked with Nigerian artist Rema, and contributed to Ty Dolla $ign and <a href="https://preview.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/kanye-west-new-wife-bianca-censori" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kanye West&rsquo;s</a> 2024 album Vultures 2.
 Her upcoming project, MENTAL, is set to follow her previous works, BRUT (2020), Noir (2019), and Rouge (2019), as well as her self-titled debut album from 2014.

She models for luxury houses&nbsp;

In addition to her musical achievements, Yseult is celebrated in the fashion and beauty industries. She has performed and walked for major fashion houses like Balmain, Mugler, <a href="https://preview.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/alexander-mcqueen-fall-winter-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alexander McQueen</a>, and Balenciaga, and has been featured in prominent publications such as Vogue US, British Vogue, Vogue France, and Vogue India. In 2021, she was named a global ambassador for L&rsquo;Or&eacute;al.
When not walking in fashion shows, Yseult has been known to be one of the best dressed each year at the Cannes Film Festival, with the "New Look" being only one of the several ensembles that had heads turning.&nbsp;
