Cannes Film Festival fashion roundup: Heidi Klum, Eva Longoria, Kristen Stewart and more wowed the festival red carpet.

The 78th Cannes Film Festival is coming to an end, and amidst all the film buzz, let’s not forget about the fashion! This year, there were some new guidelines on what to wear on the red carpet. While some celebrities adhered to the rules, others took a more unconventional route. Nonetheless, there were numerous standout looks that sparked discussions among fashion enthusiasts, all of which can be found in the photo gallery above.

Heidi Klum, the host of “Project Runway,” decided to defy the festival’s prohibition on wearing elaborate gowns with lengthy trains. She turned heads at the festival’s opening ceremony on May 13 by donning a pink floral Elie Saab gown featuring a mesmerizing train. Additionally, at the amfAR event held at the Cap d’Antibes Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, Klum opted for a sheer black Yara Shoemaker gown paired with a feathered cape. As this occasion took place outside the official Cannes red carpet, she technically did not violate any nudity guidelines.

Nicole Kidman, known for her role in “Nine Perfect Strangers,” was recognized at Kering’s 10th Annual Women in Motion dinner on May 18. She captivated onlookers in a stunning red lace Balenciaga gown, earning admiration for her elegant choice.

Eva Longoria told People she brought six (!!) trunks of “dresses and changes and shoes and bags and jewelry.” She wore a custom turquoise Elie Saab gown for the “Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning” premiere. And she donned a blush pink Tamara Ralph strapless gown at the “Phoenician Scheme” premiere.

Elle Fanning’s shimmery strapless Armani Privé gown turned heads at the May 21 “Affeksjonsverdi” (Sentimental Value) premiere. The dress was all about the details, including the soft pink flowers on the bodice and train.

Dior ambassador Natalie Portman paid homage to the early days of the iconic fashion house at the Cannes premiere of “Eddington.” She wore a strapless black and silver custom creation that was a throwback to a 1951 archival gown.

“9-1-1” star Angela Bassett attended the “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning” premiere in a navy and black Burberry dress with fringe sleeves and skirt.

Emma Stone is always a style star. At the “Eddington” premiere at Cannes, the Louis Vuitton ambassador wore a sculptural white gown from the brand with a dramatic bib-like neckline.

Another style star is Kristen Stewart, who is a Chanel ambassador. And at Cannes, her looks were both classic and cool, putting a new twist on shorts suits! For the “Bono: Stories of Surrender” carpet, Stewart donned Bermuda-like shorts, a sheer top and black tie. And for “The Chronology of Water” photo call, the actress wore a pink tweed short suit covered by a sheer maxi skirt, so as not to break the “no nudity” rule.

And finally, Alexander Skarsgard had the internet buzzing when he walked “The Phoenician” red carpet in a double-breasted jacket rocked thigh-high leather St Laurent boots. Classic on the top, edgy on the bottom!
