Each red carpet has its own personality. There really is a Golden Globe Dress, Oscar Dress, or a Grammys Dress. And one would never mix the three. Those who do, usually find themselves on the worst-dressed list. The Cannes Film Festival red carpet is one of the most revered because it captures the iconic old Hollywood glamour that comes with the Oscars and blends with the avant-garde nature of French fashion. France – specifically Paris, dictates world fashion. Everything else is an extension.
Celebrities and their stylists celebrated the classics with beautifully draped and structured pieces at the 2014 Cannes Festival. It wasn’t the Met Ball. There were no dresses with lights installed, or metal hardware and chopped panels. This year, it was smoldering glamour with Rivera-influenced effortless style.
