France and fashion are nearly
synonymous, which means when the stars go to Cannes, they make sure to dress to
impress. Whittling down the hundreds of gorgeous red carpet looks from the
12-day-long film festival is no small feat — especially when a slew of
A-listers like Jessica Chastain and Nicole Kidman are in attendance — but then again,
it wasn't terribly difficult. These four looks are luxurious, gorgeous, and,
most important, memorable. (No dull LBDs or pedestrian prom dresses here!)
Kidman kicked off the festival
on May 15 at the French premiere of The Great Gatsby in a sweet but chic
strapless floral embroidered Christian Dior dress, pairing it with bright coral
patent Dior pumps. The actress, attending this year as a jury member, would go
on to walk the rouge carpet several more times during the festival in couture
gowns, closing the fest on May 26 in a stunning custom Giorgio Armani bustier
gown, but it was her first look that stood out.
Isla Fisher, who appears
alongside Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby, was also a
major standout at the premiere, which doubled as opening night of the festival.
The actress wore a red strapless Oscar de la Renta gown and exquisite statement
jewelry — a multi-colored necklace and a serpent watch, both from Bulgari
Heritage. With her red hair worn down and loose, Sasha Baron Cohen's wife was
the picture of unfussy glamour.
Five days later, Zoe Saldana
hit the Blood Ties premiere in a dreamy gray sleeveless brocade gown from
Valentino's Fall 2013 collection. David Yurman jewels in coordinating hues
completed the understated yet super-stylish look.
And then there was Chastain,
resplendent in a beaded custom Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci gown at the All Is
Lost premiere on May 22. The sparkly and elaborately detailed dress needed no
further embellishments: Chastain kept her makeup natural, her hair in a tousled
ponytail, and her neck, ears and wrists free of any jewelry. (Source)
