Once again, I am late to the Cannes fashion discussion. At the very least, you can say I have been consistent year after year. I eliminated street style and stuck with official events only, mostly photocalls and the red carpet. You will only be seeing the beautiful ladies. Apologies to the gentlemen! Before we jump into the fashion, I want to wish a very happy 70th birthday to Festival de Cannes. You don’t look a day over 30.Β πŸŽ‚

The contrast of Jessica’s red hair and the light appliquΓ©s against the black dress complete this look. One of my favorites!

I’m not usually a fan of quilted fabric for gowns because it’s bulky. However, I really like this dress. The hair, makeup, and accessories work wonders and add a little extra drama. I am titling this look “The Dragoness.”

Another one of my favorite looks. The contrast of the blue appliquΓ©s with the champagne gown, the simple accessories. Everything is well done. Also, it’s worth noting that Jourdan and Eva are glow buddies. Her skin looks gorgeous! Is it quality highlighter or the color of the dress?? Perhaps it’s the Cannes sunshine working it’s magic.Β πŸ”†

If you’re not familiar with my method for crowning a fashion champion, I base my decision on the amount of looks per person that make the cut for the final blog post. I choose “Best Designer” based on the same criteria. Drumroll please!! The winners are…

If you’re curious about the final numbers, Nicole had five looks and Dior had ten. Until next year, au revoir! 😘
