The 76th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, one of the biggest entertainment and fashion events of the year, kicked off on 16 May at the French Riviera. The film festival which is chiefly renowned for its celebration of outstanding cinema, is also known for its sheer elegance, panache, and grandiosity on the red carpet. From a grand opening ceremony to a dazzling spectacle of celebrities on the illustrious red carpet, the entertainment and glamour quotient at the opulent Cannes Film Festival 2023 is simply unbeatable. Looks are being served, and stunning fashion statements are being made by one celebrity at a time.
Nothing screams glamour quite like Cannes but there’s more to it than just glitz and style. Some of the most anticipated films are premiering like Jeanne du Barry, Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City, and Martin Scorcese’s new Apple-backed film Killers of the Flower Moon. With the festival running until 27 May, there’ll only be more films to celebrate and fashion to look up to.
