Fashion is an art form, one that embodies the inner elegance and regality of each individual – and nowhere is this shown better than the Cannes Film Festival.
In an era where fashion is fast paced and dominated by minimal styling and self-expression, the festival projects savoir-faire in the form of dramatic haute couture. Each piece is a timeless embodiment of art – a testament to Cannes itself. Here at GRAZIA, we’ve compiled a list of the best looks at the Cannes Film Festival 2026.
Looking back, we’ve continuously been witness to timeless designers dominating the red carpet – which also includes a slew of regional designers. With bold looks full of glamour, embodied by superstars such as Simone Ashley and Julianne Moore. Making it a challenge to determine which one of them have done it best.
The tone was set by Bottega Veneta, with stars including Julianne Moore and Vicky Krieps as visions of glamour at the Kering Women in Motion Awards. Moore’s look was the pinnacle of excellence – with a white embellished suit paired with a dramatic fur clutch. Meanwhile, Kreip’s look embodied the opposite, as a suave spectacle in shimmering sequins, perfectly matching the festivals panache.
Elsewhere, we see Simone Ashley stunned the crowd in an extravagant Alexander McQueen red gown. She paired the look with a timeless Chaumet neckpiece, acting as the embodiment of effortless elegance. Bella Hadid, as always, wowed on the red carpet and for the opening night of the Cannes Film Festival it was no different, where the supermodel was seen wearing a custom Prada ensemble.
So, as the Cannes Film Festival 2026 – its 79th edition – comes to a close, GRAZIA looks back at some of the best dressed celebrities.
