It's reliably one of the biggest events for style (and film!) each year, and the 2025 Cannes Film Festival once again delivered standout red carpet looks — from floor-sweeping gowns to more conceptual, fashion-forward ensembles.
With appearances from A-listers like Emma Stone and Jodie Foster, plus a bevy of supermodels — including Heidi Klum, Karolína Kurková and Canadian Coco Rocha — this year's red carpet was one for the books.
Rihanna and her husband, rapper A$AP Rocky, even shared a sweet moment together under an "umbrella, -ella, -ella" at the premiere of Highest 2 Lowest.
Here are 12 of the year's top Cannes Film Festival looks.
Dakota Johnson
The American actor wore Gucci multiple times at Cannes, including to the premiere of Spike Lee's Highest 2 Lowest. Stylist Kate Young paired her strapless, sequin-embroidered fringe gown with a beautiful pair of shoulder-grazing drop earrings by Boucheron.
Diane Kruger
Diane Kruger had multiple winning looks at Cannes this year, but a highlight was this Dolce & Gabbana ensemble featuring a sheer scarf and full-length gloves. Her jewelry — including a back necklace — is by FRED Paris.
Alton Mason
Mason, an actor and model, made the slightly-too-ubiquitous-at-Cannes black tuxedo work for him on the Highest 2 Lowest red carpet. The roomier fit of his Balmain tux complemented the unbuttoned dress shirt, while a star-shaped brooch by Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen added a perfectly on-trend touch.
Paul Mescal
Mescal, who stars in The History Of Sound, attended the premiere of the movie in an all-black Gucci look paired with Cartier jewelry. Once again, it's the perfectly relaxed fit of the monochrome suiting that elevates it from standard to stylish.
Isabelle Huppert
French actor Isabelle Huppert looked effortlessly cool at the Highest 2 Lowest premiere in a denim Balenciaga ensemble, styled with a jewelry piece by Elsa Jin Studio — worn as a brooch.
Emma Stone
The Eddington star was the definition of elegance in a white gown with a sculptural statement collar and sparkly earrings, both by Louis Vuitton.
Rawdah Mohamed
Model Rawdah Mohamed — who also made our Cannes best-dressed list last year — wore two gorgeous looks at the festival, including this pale pink drop-waist gown custom made for her by Malaysian fashion label Rizman Ruzaini, and a sculptural, cream-coloured ensemble by Cheney Chan.
Barbara Palvin
Pink satin can sometimes read as overly saccharine on the red carpet, but this off-the-shoulder Balenciaga gown beautifully ushers Palvin into what she calls her " princess era."
Mitchell Akat Maruko Raan
Model Mitchell Akat Maruko Raan might have won the Cannes red carpet in this striking cheetah-print look by designer Harvey Cenit.
Irina Shayk
For the Dossier 137 premiere, the model wore a stunning custom Elie Saab gown paired with fine jewelry by Marli New York. Her wet-look hair and bold red lips complemented the drama of the feathered gown well.
Heidi Klum
At the festival's opening ceremony, model Heidi Klum stole the show in a strapless pink Elie Saab gown adorned with delicate organza petals.
Jodie Foster
