Despite the fact that numerous stars may perhaps have opted for quiet, understated compared to the Met Gala this year, they made up for it by going all out in the 2011 Cannes Film Festival. From tradition Haider Ackermann to to-die-for Versace, have a look at a number of the greatest red carpet looks up to now.
Walking on the red carpet in the custom Calvin Klein Collection beaded attire, Diane Kruger looked like she was dipped in liquid gold, even though French style icon Ines de la Fressange once again proved that age doesn't matter in her custom Carven gown.
Rachel McAdams knocked out the park not once, but twice. Given a new, lighter hair shade, the actress picked for a fixed Maxime Simoens Spring 2011 Couture outfit beautifully drawl with flowers about the shoulders and pockets. She switched into a Fall 2011 Marchesa gown that distinctly incited fawning over once the collection was shown in February. Naturally, McAdams did the embellished red silk organza fantasy cap sleeve dress (accented having a tulle ruffle skirt) justice.
Echoing a peek that Jennifer Lopez wore for the Met Gala, Salma Hayek shone in a custom Gucci strapless mixed dress which she wore with a floral appliqué sign. Afterward, the wife of PPR's head honcho, Francois Pinault, (PPR owns Gucci), was once again ideal wearing a strapless pale Gucci Premiere (Gucci's couture collection that has been launched on the festival last year) gown having an embroidered silver bead, crystal bustier and sequin.
Uma Thurman might have been away from the Hollywood radar for a while now, but she's back with a vengeance because of an understated, white cut-out, feather-accented Versace gown that displayed an on-trend thigh-high slit. And in white, Bianca Balti paired her strapless chiffon Alberta Ferretti dress with a bold green necklace.
Dazzling in Armani Prive had been Aishwarya Rai in a look from the designer's Spring 2011 collection and Karolina Kurkova in the Fall 2009 blue sequin gown.
You will love Tilda Swinton's style even if you do not like her. Fans of the actress without any doubt, will be pleased to see that she opted for a custom, navy satin Haider Ackermann high-waisted skirt and a lighter blue top.
