Tessa Thompson and Jodie Turner-Smith continued to bring the DRAMA (all caps intended) and rising star Taylor Russell (Waves, Bones and All)  joined them in boldness. Meanwhile Maude Apatow went classic, Chloe Sevigny went short, Aimee Lou Wood (Sex Education) was doing a polka dot theme all day including this gown. And last but not least, Timothée Chalamet and Cate Blanchett knew exactly what to wear to keep people talking. So which was your favourite?

Cannes Gown Round 9: Red & Black Song

It's a DOUBLE-SIZED poll tonight/this morning (depending on when you're seeing this) since the stars have been out out en masse for various premieres. One question begs to be asked: Do stylists and designers all have meetings cross-clients to decide on the trends for each major festival...not just general trends but day-to-day shifts. If not why is it all of a sudden blacks and reds? Earlier in the festival metallic gowns and pink were all the rage. The fashion hive-mind has such mood swings!

You know what to do!

Cannes Gowns, Round 8

Previous Cannes 2022 Fashion Polls: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7

Cannes closing ceremony hits this weekend and so many stars have already been strutting to the premieres and parties that we have to wonder who will stick around to the bitter end? Or, more excitingly, who might be called back to town for the closing ceremony. They don't tell people what they're winning, from what we've heard, but they do supposedly contact some filmmakers people to suggest that the team should be in town if you catch the drift. But we're getting ahead of ourselves. That's this weekend. In today's roundup, Sharon Stone, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Crimes of the Future's Kristen Stewart, and Zar Amir Ebrahimi who is the star of Ali Abassi's buzzy serial killer film Holy Spider. It's based on a true story though her reporter/protagonist role is an invention.

Cannes Gowns, Round 7: Decision to Trend

Previous Cannes 2022 Fashion Polls: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6

Léa Seydoux has multiple films at Cannes which is the norm given how in demand she is both at home in France and abroad. This is the gown she wore to her Crimes of the Future premiere. Brilliant Chinese actress Tang Wei returned to the spotlight with Decision to Leave (which Elisa thinks is THE film of Cannes thus far). If you've been wondering where she's been that three year break was because she recently had her first child with husband director Kim Tae-yong (Late Autumn). Meanwhile the UK's Lashana Lynch and Spain's always memorable Rossy de Palma were right on trend; there have been a lot of metallic and/or disco ball gowns as well as an abundance of brilliant pink on the red carpet of late.
