Revenge is a dish best served cold—and apparently, low-cut and black. At least that's what Shakira proved as she showed up in Cannes with a "little black dress," despite what she was living in her relationship with Piqué.

When the singer walked the red carpet at the premiere of the film "Elvis" during the last film festival, she caused a sensation in an elegant and tight black strapless gown with a pronounced side slit by Mônot, which revealed her incredible figure.

To complement her look, the "My Hips Don't Lie" singer chose black sandals tied at the ankle, transparent gloves, and Chopard jewelry. Now that we all know that at the time, the Colombian was going through a difficult time, it is possible that the choice of her outfit was made with her "revenge" in mind, just as Princess Diana did at the time.   

For those who don't remember, when the late Princess Diana confirmed the infidelity of her husband, Prince Charles, she arrived at a gala wearing a flirty and striking black dress with bare shoulders, which was dubbed the "revenge dress" and to this day remains one of the most iconic looks of the revered princess.

Now, many are comparing the Colombian singer's look with the one that Lady Di wore at the time, and the truth might not be far from reality. 

As Shakira walked down the carpet, the artist looked spectacular. In fact, this has been one of the most fabulous outfits she has worn in recent years. If, like the princess, the singer wanted to make it clear that she is better than ever, we believe she has succeeded.
