Last climb of the stairs at Cannes for 2024. If the film Anora by Sean Baker received the legendary Palme d’Or, the closing ceremony was an opportunity for the guests to reveal themselves in outfits, each more sublime than the last. others.
After 12 days of celebrating cinema, the Cannes Film Festival ended this Saturday, May 25. For the last red carpet of this 77th edition, actors, directors and international celebrities redoubled their fashion efforts. A look back at the most striking looks, between glamor and elegance.
Black, a safe bet for the red carpet
Back to black. Like every year, the stars highlighted black looks to shine on the red carpet. The actress Ana Girardot, for example, appeared in a strapless ball-effect Celine dress in light tulle printed with polka dots.
British actress Simone Ashley wore a short black dress with a train by Stella McCartney. Special mention for the pointed bustier which enhanced the magnificent Chaumet set.
American actress Viola Davis presented herself in a straight black sequinned Ami dress accented with a small white cape. Actress Vicky Krieps dared to wear a smocking-style dress which always has an effect on red carpets and which has the merit of breaking the codes. Asmae El Moudir, director and screenwriter, opted for a dress with a sequined jacket and a fan collar. On one of his gloves, we could see the flag of Palestine. A committed gesture reminiscent of Cate Blanchett’s dress on the red carpet on May 20.
The actress and president of the Camera d’or jury Emmanuelle Béart chose an off-the-shoulder jumpsuit, with integrated gloves enhanced with sparkling bracelets, and a light train, by the house Ami Paris.
We fell in love with Demi Moore’s Celine dress, whose draped bustier is adorned with an XXL bow that is as trendy as it is elegant. As since the start of the Cannes Film Festival, the actress confirmed this evening her status as a fashion icon.
Colors, sequins and extravagance
The red dress on a red carpet remains a must. And this evening, who better than model Lena Gercke to represent this tone on tone? The model wore a very sharp red dress, with a play on volume with organic lines which brought a certain relief and touches of transparency to this sexy and glamorous look.
The Swiss-Lithuanian singer Ginta was not afraid of the XXL ruffled train combined with a very sophisticated and feminine sequin dress, designed by JoliPoli Couture and accompanied by Messika diamonds.
Elle Fanning called on Gucci for this last evening of the Cannes Film Festival with a pleated, flowing dress with a backless and plunging neckline. A real ray of sunshine!
Model and founder of her beauty brand Victoria Bonya wore a figure-hugging sequin dress, energized by flower-like volume. All in a soft yellow/lime green color.
In a light yellow Miu Miu dress where a delicate bow adorned the small of the back, actress Joey King wore transparent black gloves decorated with sequins. A pretty alliance that is both soft and glamorous.
Actress Andie MacDowell revealed herself in a one-sleeve, draped blue dress, sober, classy and effective.
Indian actresses Chhaya Kadam, Divya Prabha and Kani Kusruti appeared on the red carpet in colorful and precious traditional outfits.
Chinese influencer Jessica Wang set the red carpet ablaze in a figure-hugging white dress that enhanced her figure and was characterized by a huge golden brooch whose design was reminiscent of flames.
Let us also remember Eva Green, who closed the climb of the steps alongside the other jurors and the President of the jury Greta Gerwig, in a close-fitting silver sequined dress with a very beautiful neckline and an amplified bony pelvis.
Presented by Camille Cottin, the closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival took place at the Grand Théâtre Lumière in the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès, located on the iconic Croisette. Jury President Greta Gerwig and her jurors, such as Omar Sy, Eva Green and Kore-eda Hirokazu, selected the winning films of the 2024 edition in various categories.
