Welcome back to Vogue’s Most Dressed at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. We’re not here to crown anyone best—or worst—dressed, but rather to highlight the bold, daring, and utterly glamorous looks that caught our eye throughout the event.
Most Dressed honors both quality and quantity. Take Kristen Stewart, who wore just four Chanel looks—but between her pink tulle overskirt and her crisp white short suit with a matching baseball cap, she had us hooked. Meanwhile, juror Jeremy Strong embraced monochrome in a parade of brown, peach, and sage-green suits.
The Croisette is always a spectacle of high-octane glamour, but this year’s controversial dress code—banning nudity, excessive volume, and long trains—left us wondering how stars would adapt. (Frankly, these rules feel decidedly un-French.) Some, like Heidi Klum in a sweeping Elie Saab floral gown, ignored them entirely, while Helen Mirren let her accessories steal the show. And Isabelle Huppert? She might just make the festival reconsider its stance on denim. Stay tuned…
Below, Vogue’s picks for Most Dressed at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival.
### Elle Fanning
Fanning proved why she’s the Queen of Cannes ahead of her film Sentimental Value. She dazzled on the red carpet in a beaded Gucci gown but also embraced playful fashion, sporting a Joachim Trier Summer tee—designed by an 11-year-old, no less. If a graphic tee can fill movie seats, Fanning’s all for it.
### Alexander Skarsgård
Thigh-high leather boots. Need we say more?
### Jeremy Strong
As a juror, Strong strolled through Cannes in a muted rainbow of monochrome suiting—dusty rose corduroy, sage tuxedos—leaving us eager to see what he’ll wear for the closing ceremony.
### Halle Berry
A jury member’s schedule demands endless chic outfits, and Berry delivered: a voluminous Celia Kritharioti gown, long denim shorts, and a jaw-dropping 100-carat Chopard snake necklace.
### Isabelle Huppert
Never one for convention, Huppert turned heads in Balenciaga chunky sneakers and a backwards denim dress with a massive emerald brooch. Will Cannes ban denim next year?
### Cara Delevingne
In her short time at the festival, Delevingne covered all bases—a choppy black wig, a glamorous emerald-adorned gown, and effortlessly cool off-duty looks—saying more with fewer pieces than most.
### Helen Mirren
Coco Chanel’s advice to remove one accessory before leaving the house? Mirren either hasn’t heard it—or, more likely, couldn’t care less.
### Irina Shayk
From her shield sunglasses… (Stay tuned for more!)Here’s a more natural and fluent rewrite of your text:
—
Irina Shayk
Shayk dominated the Cannes red carpet—even without a film to promote—mixing high fashion with unexpected dad shoes. Actors, take notes!
Heidi Klum
The model and TV star ignored the new “no volume, no trains” dress code at the Opening Ceremony, wearing a bold pink Elie Saab gown with plenty of both. But that wasn’t her only standout moment—even her airport arrival turned heads, thanks to her camo-print alligator Birkin and a playful Mickey Mouse hoodie.
Kristen Stewart
Stewart, making her directorial debut with The Chronology of Water, turned Cannes into a Chanel showcase. On her first day alone, she rocked a pink tweed shorts suit with a tulle overskirt, then switched to a white shorts suit with a baseball cap and micro tie.
Eva Longoria
Longoria fully embraced the sparkle at Cannes 2025. On the red carpet, she dazzled in a mirror-ball-like Tamara Ralph gown and a teal sequined Elie Saab dress (both breaking the no-train rule). She also celebrated her L’Oréal ambassadorship in a stained-glass-inspired Zuhair Murad dress—proving that for her, more is always more.
Juliette Binoche
As jury president, Binoche delivered serious style. Her sleek white suit at the Eddington premiere remains unbeatable, but she also stunned in an edgy Matrix-inspired leather look with purple tights and a sheer white cape.
Alessandra Ambrosio
Though she spent more time off the Croisette than on, the model turned every space into a runway—from the Nice Airport (flaunting her gray Kelly bag) to the Red Sea Film Foundation’s “Women in Cinema” Gala, where she wore a heavily embellished black Zuhair Murad gown.
Diane Kruger
Kruger may not have had the most outfits, but she made each one count—like her oversized banana-yellow Givenchy dress and a layered lilac Prada gown. She even channeled Black Swan in a strapless tulle Maje dress with lace tights.
John C. Reilly
Everything’s bigger in Cannes—including hats. The actor, no stranger to headwear, took it to new heights with styles compared to Colonel Sanders and Doug Dimmadome. Good luck to anyone sitting behind him in the theater.
Mitchell Akat Maruko Raan
Sometimes one look is all you need. The South Sudanese model proved that at the Sirât premiere, wearing a full leopard-print ensemble—complete with a 3D headpiece.
