As the curtains close on the 78th Cannes Film Festival, the world once again turns its attention not just to cinema’s finest, but to the fashion statements that defined this year’s red carpet. With the Mediterranean sun casting its golden glow over the Croisette, the red carpet was ablaze with couture masterpieces, opulent jewels, and a head-turning lineup of global style icons. This year’s style stars brought their sartorial A-game, celebrating glamour in its most elevated form.

Among the festival’s standout fashion moments were Filipinas Pia Wurtzbach and Kylie Verzosa, who each delivered a lesson in modern elegance. Pia stunned in a custom Zuhair Murad gown paired with Bulgari High Jewelry. In an Instagram post showcasing her dress, Pia shares the caption “The front made a promise. The back kept it.” Her dress is truly made to be photographed in all angles. Kylie also made a powerful statement in a bright butter yellow Mark Bumgarner masterpiece and Tiffany and Co jewelry. She made a case for sculptural floral ensembles on the red carpet!

The 2025 Cannes red carpet was made even more memorable with the highly anticipated return of Angelina Jolie at Cannes. The award-winning actress delivered an understated yet commanding look in Brunello Cucinelli. As per usual, Natalie Portman looked exquisite in Christian Dior Couture. Natalie opted to once again pay homage to the House’s heritage by wearing a recreation of the classic 1951 Robe Mexique by Christian Dior. Also spotted in an archival-inspired Dior look was Jennifer Lawrence in a pristine petal ball gown for the premiere of her new film Die, My Love. Jennifer’s look is inspired by a dress created for composer Francis Poulenc in 1949.

There was an elegant show of power from the House of Gucci as their global brand ambassadors bannered glamour on the red carpet. Dakota Johnson was a vision in a pink fringe gown while Davika Hoorne chose a striking juniper color paired with a feather boa. Daisy Edgar-Jones chose chic black pailettes to wear on the red carpet.
