We’ve had the Oscars, the Met, and so it’s high time for the 75th Cannes Film Festival to take its turn on the red carpet. The Cannes Film Festival has always centred itself around the glamour of discovery: be it a reveal of prolific international films to come á la Bong Joon Ho’s Parasite and Hirokazu Koreeda’s Shoplifters, or witnessing a diverse blaze of A-list personalities to take the glam a notch up. And with the sheer number of photo-worthy ops from afternoon photo-calls to the gala night screenings set to happen over the next 10 days, we’re expecting not just stellar head-to-toe looks, but equally stunning beauty details worth the spotlight.
The opening night saw jewelled headpieces and matching accessories—here to take the show away. The first day’s slew of looks included Deepika Padukone’s glistening gold set, complimenting her black-and-gold Sabyasachito sari for a red carpet moment that hallmarked her heritage. Julianne Moore’s statement emeralds perfectly contrasted her copper mane, with a coppery eyeshadow to boot. Also opting for a sliver of silver on her mane, was Miss France 2021: Amandine Petit. Keeping things fresh yet classic was Eva Longoria who donned a frilly veil number by Alberta Ferretti, sweetening the deal with a black choker and wavy tresses to beat.
Judging from the line-up of films alone—think Koreeda’s Broker starring IU and Bae Doona as well as Irma Vep with Alicia Vikander—we’re expecting the best of beauty from the 75th Cannes Film Festival to only grow. Spy them all, below.
