It’s time for the globe’s biggest film and theatre faces to pull out their red carpet best: the 69th annual Cannes Film Festival kicked off on Wednesday and has already showcased some very promising looks. Stars have descended on the French Riviera, Following the over-the-top fashion seen at the Met Gala, this red carpet brings out the best in old Hollywood glamour reminiscent of past movie icons. Actress and model Blake Lively and actresses Kristen Stewart and Julianne Moore are just some of the big names in attendance, so expect two weeks of stunning style moments! We love the glitz and glamour of the red carpet, but when it comes to Cannes Film Festival, the most real-life inspiring style happens at the luncheons, photo calls, and strolls along the French Riviera. While the evening red carpet premieres usually get all the attention, we’re just as excited for all the daytime photo calls, where stars tend to show a little bit more of their personal style, and where the French Riviera makes for a particularly glamorous outdoor backdrop.
