There’s no shortage of red carpets these days. With all of the award ceremonies dotting the calendar from January to June, the stars seem to be on rouge on a regular basis. That said, one step and repeat undeniably outdoes the rest when it comes to glamour and style. Of course, we’re talking about Cannes. For two weeks each year, the sleepy French seaside town comes alive to host its namesake film festival. And the stars bring their sartorial A-game. The infamously strict dress code of the Cannes Film Festival lends itself to elegant, fashion-forward looks and megawatt jewelry. So far, 2024 has been no exception. Festival attendees like Anya Taylor-Joy, Demi Moore, and Hunter Schafer have all walked the carpet in blinding bling.
