Everyone who is anyone has been in Cannes, the elite of the fashion crowd and the Hollywood creme de la creme. We all eagerly awaited the opening ceremony which served as the premiere of the most eagerly anticipated movie of the year 'The Great Gatsby'. Glamorous looks unfolded all evening proving once again that Cannes is the playground for the rich and famous, the event where the saying 'go big or go home' was invented, did not disappoint.
Gowns glided down the red carpet to the sound of paparazzi light bulbs flashing and uncharacteristic rain showers didn't dampen the evening. Leading lady Carey Mulligan wore a blush matte satin Dior Couture gown with bold red statement lips. The British star was glowing in her spotlight moment with her handsome co star Leonardo Di Caprio, oh ladies we do love him! I'm not sure what I'm looking forward to more, the Gatsby wardrobe or Leonardo himself.
Some of my personal favourites of the night were Frieda Pinto's custom made Gucci coral silk chiffon halter gown with embellished waist, she managed to incorporate a Bollywood feel to Gucci. The braided up do and Chopard jewels were also the perfect accents.
French actress Vahina Giocante grabbed the attention in a vibrant electric blue Elie Saab chiffon gown. Against the red carpet this jewel tone dress really stood out, her stylist certainly gets the thumbs up.
Whether you have your own premiere to attend or you just have the Gatsby bug, steal the Cannes style with opulent eveningwear from us here at Cruise.
