When it seemed that af ter the ME T G ala nothing would satisfy our fashionista souls in
some time, there came the Cannes Film Festival full of sur pr ises and glamour. I t is even
said that this edition has been the most glamorous in years! O f course, there are outfits
for ever yone. Let ’s have a look to the best- dressed ladies of the 68th edition of the Annual Cannes Film Festival.

T

here was no better way to open the red
carpet than Naomi Watts in a dress by Elie
Saab. Let’s face it: wearing a dress made out
of feathers is not an easy task, the quality and the
colour of the feather might be defining, but Elie
Saab has accomplished his task in the best way
possible: very light and fluid feathers in dove gray tones to create a long skirt, combined with
an embroidered top are the per fect match, and
the most important thing: Naomi Watts wearing
it. She looked completely stunning.

Cate Blanchett, with her strapless Giles gown,
and Charlize Theron with a yellow dress, surprised ever yone. It was impossible not to look
at them: as they looked absolutely gorgeous.
Also, Marion Cotillard amazed the attendants
with her simple but amazing style. It is true that
she’s not always right with her outfit choices,
but this time she deser ves a special mention.
For the red carpet she chose ver y elegant and
simplistic designs, and for the presentation of
her new film, Macbeth, a jumpsuit that resembles the 70’s fashion.

Other of the best dressed of this edition was
Lupita Nyong’o. She stepped on to the red carpet with a green chiffon dress with embroidered
flowers and V neckline, by Gucci. Lupita knows
she looks amazing in green, it is not the first time
we see her in this color. It is always a wise choice!

In general, we could say that this year, the
Cannes Film Festival recovered the elegance
and glamour of past editions, even though
some appeared in blue jeans and tees (yes, Maïwenn, we’re talking about you!).

This 68th edition was also the return of Natalie
Portman to the red carpet. We missed her!! Faithful to her minimalist style, she dazzled the audience with outfits in red, black and white, like
these gowns by Rodarte and Dior.

We’ll see more next year

by Laura Leal!

And speaking about minimalism, and the “less
is more” philosophy, probably one of the best
options for the red carpet is to wear black and
white; it is always a successful decision, as these
colours worn together or seperate always make
an outfit neat, simple and elegant. That’s why
many attendants chose this combination, or
maybe just one of the colors. Black and white
may seem, as I said before, simple. But combine
it with colored shoes, clutches or great pieces of
jewellery and it will give the most amazing look.
