The 78th Cannes Film Festival has arrived, and celebrities are making their way into the French Riviera with sophisticated style, ready for this year’s celebration of some of the most anticipated films of the year. From the celebrity arrivals so far, we can’t help but notice a clear trend emerge in monochromatic looks. If the first day is any indicator, we can expect to see refined silhouettes in muted tones on the red carpet—a departure from previous years where vibrant colors, sheer fabrics, and dramatic silhouettes were prominent.
Following the breakout successes of last year’s Cannes Film Festival, which featured Academy Award winners Anora and Emilia Pérez, the 78th edition is poised to generate similar acclaim. This year’s lineup includes highly anticipated films such as Wes Anderson’s The Phoenician Scheme and Lynne Ramsay’s Die My Love, starring Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson. Tom Cruise also returns with Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, the much-hyped final installment of the blockbuster franchise. Meanwhile, Paul Mescal and Josh O’Connor are expected to attend for press on their new romantic drama, The History of Sound. Cannes will also mark a major career milestone for Kristen Stewart, who makes her directorial debut with The Chronology of Water, a coming-of-age story starring Imogen Poots as a young woman grappling with sexuality and addiction.
