The red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival never disappoints. For the last 75 years, the Cannes Film Festival has been one of the most notable dates on the international film calendar, and with it, a whole host of show-stopping looks on the red carpet.

Of course, actors reign on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet. Jury members have upped their sartorial game of late, including 2018 members Léa Seydoux and Kristen Stewart, as they attend screening after screening in myriad couture looks for the week-long event held on the French Riviera.

The Cannes Film Festival red carpet is a who’s who of famous faces. Hollywood movie stars such as 2018 jury president Cate Blanchett and Angelina Jolie cross paths with major industry players like Pedro Almodóvar and Sofia Coppola – and even sometimes royalty – on the red carpet, and they all come dressed to impress.

A wealth of supermodels have flown in for the illustrious film festival over the years, too.

Some, in the form of actors’ dates, such as Elizabeth Hurley when she joined her then-partner actor Hugh Grant and others as ambassadors for big fashion brands, such as Naomi Campbell in the Nineties and Bella Hadid in recent years.
