Gemma Chan’s Custom Dress At Cannes Served As The Perfect Finale To The Red Carpet
So much glamour.
The 75th Annual Cannes Film Festival is under way and all of the red carpet moments are giving serious French Riviera meets glamorous Hollywood vibes. The invite-only event has taken place for decades as a way to celebrate up-and-coming films from around the globe — it’s where classic movies including Pulp Fiction and Taxi Driver first made their debuts. This year, the star-studded event is all about extravagance and celebrities are using the occasion to take their 2022 Cannes Film Festival fashion looks to the next level.
While posing on the carpet, stars sported lavish gowns by fashion houses such as Bottega Veneta, Gucci, and Valentino. Thus far, floor-length gowns have been the most popular choice, with Eva Longoria looking gorgeous in a sheer maxi gown by Alberta Ferretti and Julianne Moore gracing the carpet in a flowing gown by Bottega Veneta. However, it’s not all about the dresses — even though they’ve all been showstoppers. For the occasion, stars, too, took their jewels to the next level and have completed their looks with luxurious diamond tennis necklaces, oversized gemstones, and sparkly earrings.
Ahead, see the best fashion looks from the 2022 Cannes Film Festival. You’ll find plenty of inspiration for your next elegant event.
