Fan Bingbing In Chris by Christopher Bu - 'Emperor' Cannes Film Festival Press Junket

Fan Bingbing attended the ‘Emperor’ press junket with Jackie Chan during the Cannes Film Festival at Torch at Vegaluna Beach Club in France last week.

The actress used the occasion to showcase the Chris by Christopher Bu Spring 2013 collection. A first for her stylist/designer Bu Kewen.

He has taken Fan from a then little-known actress at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival to propelling Fan to Vanity Fair’s Best Dressed List in 2012, plus he styled her three looks on Oscar night this year.
It was after the Oscars that Bu launched his first women’s collection, named ‘From London with Love’.

For someone who co-designed Fan’s ‘Crane’ and ‘Dragon’ gowns, this collection is infinitely more wearable, opting for a playful aesthetic with many colourful prints, stripes and delicate pastels.

Fan selected a checked look featuring a yellow-and-white blouse with a high-waist black-and-white skirt, to which she added those can’t-live-without Giuseppe Zanotti platform peep-toes.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley In Mary Katrantzou - Gatwick Airport

If I could look half as good as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley while arriving off a 10-hour flight, I would be extremely happy.

The model/actress arrived at Gatwick Airport yesterday from LAX, redefining airport chic.

No prizes for guessing that the piece which piqued my interest the most was her Mary Katrantzou Spring 2013 currency-print blazer, but the overall look is very inspiring.

The rest of her look includes a simple grey tee and AG Adriano Goldschmied ‘The Legging Ankle’ jeans, which she accessorized with a nutmeg Viktor & Rolf ‘Bombette’ bag, an uber-chic fedora and nude Christian Louboutin pumps.

I covet every piece. Do you?

Li Yuchun In Roberto Cavalli - Chinese Party

Li Yuchun came to our attention yesterday wearing a Gareth Pugh Spring 2013 Chinese-red ensemble, which appears to be the marmite look of Cannes so far.

She proved she wasn’t afraid of taking a risk, wearing a bold colour and an unusual design at the Chinese Party held later that evening; she proved that she’s not afraid of prints either.
It would appear that Li Yuchun’s red carpet M.O. is of an androgynous nature.

I could be wrong and she’ll hit the red carpet later today in a tulle ballgown, but at the party she rocked another menswear-inspired look, this time from the Roberto Cavalli Fall 2013 collection.
The black-and-white look featuring a jacket with satin lapels was ripped right off the runway with the exclusion of the shoes.

Someone not so bold – unless they are Karolina Kurkova or Solange Knowles – would’ve added black pants or a black shirt to break up the prints; however, Yuchun rocked it as it was intended.

I can’t wait to see more of her style. I have a feeling she’s the Tilda Swinton of China.

Jessica Chastain In Givenchy - Bulgari Hosts 'Cleopatra' Cocktail

Following her Best Dressed of The Day look in Versace Collection for the ‘Cleopatra’ Cannes Film Festival premiere, where she wore a stunning necklace from the Elizabeth Taylor Bulgari Collection, Jessica Chastain attended a party hosted by Bulgari at the Hotel Marriott in Cannes, France yesterday evening.

Opting for white once again, the beautiful actress wore a Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci Spring 2014 crepe-de-chine gown with satin cut-outs and a plunging neckline.

On this occasion her jewel choice was a subtle emerald ring which stands out against the white backdrop of her gorgeous gown, and an emerald brooch accenting her flame-coloured locks.

She is such a class act. I love how elegant she always looks. I hope one day she is on the jury for Cannes so we can get to see this kind of magic for 12 days straight.

Tisci really needed this after…well…you know.

Kristin Scott Thomas In Giambattista Valli - 'Only God Forgives' Cannes Film Fesitval Photocall

Kristin Scott Thomas was the first to hit the Palais des Festivals this morning for the ‘Only God Forgives’ photocall during Cannes Film Festival in France.

Opting for a ladylike look with plenty of Parisian flare, the British-French actress wore a Giambattista Valli summery look.

Opting for a pale-pink belted frock, the actress made an elegant first impression on this festival, styling her look with a multi-floral collarless blazer, gold hooped earrings and metallic pumps.

I have a feeling Kristin will also opt for a French brand for this evening’s premiere.

Sharon Stone In Roberto Cavalli - De Grisogono Party

Sharon Stone dialled up the glamour a few notches following her red carpet appearance at the ‘Behind The Candelabra’ Cannes Film Festival premiere when she attended the De Grisogono Party held at the Hotel Du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, France yesterday evening.

Dressed in yet another Cavalli creation, the actress showed off her toned figure wearing a red one-shoulder gown with a thigh-high slit, open back, and a cut-out detail which gives her a bit of side boob.

Adding the hosts’ de Grisogono jewels to her look, Sharon further accessorized with Jimmy Choo sandals and a gold clutch.

Some of you go back and forth on your feelings when it comes to Cavalli gowns, ranging from admiration to calls of tacky.

Where does this look rank?
