‘Ismael’s Ghosts’ Cannes Film Festival Premiere Red Carpet Roundup

More stars took to the red carpet for the 2017 Cannes Film Festival opening ceremony and premiere of ‘Ismael’s Ghosts (Les Fantomes d’Ismael)’ on Wednesday (May 17).

Lily-Rose Depp: Her creamy-white Chanel dress had something of a Grecian goddess vibe. She embraced the embellishment by styling the look with gold Chanel Fine Jewelry and Gianvito Rossi ‘Portofino’ sandals

Charlotte Gainsbourg: Like Robin Wright, Charlotte dared to go short in a Saint Laurent silver-studded mini. Was it a chic, fun look? Sure. Was it right for opening night? I’m not convinced.

Eva Herzigova: More metallic came out to play in Eva’s Roberto Cavalli Couture gold-flecked gown that was a stunning way to see the designer represented at Cannes. A Roberto Cavalli Spring 2017 antique gold leather clutch, Roberto Cavalli Resort 2018 platinum sandals and Chopard jewels completed the dazzling look.

Emily Ratajkowski: This brushed gold Twinset slip-style gown didn’t exactly come across as fresh or polished as I would have liked. It was really the statement, collar necklace that helped save the look for Cannes.

Hailey Baldwin: As with Emly’s dress, this satiny Twinset peplum design was made more special with the addition of bold jewels. However, the violet-blue colour was divine.

Daria Strokouz: We’ve seen incarnations of this illustrated Christian Dior gown before, but I can see its bohemian spirit more suitably placed for a photo call rather than opening night—especially with the flat shoes.

Coco König: The extravagance of dimensional embellishment on this Ralph & Russo Couture gown had a certain breathtaking quality, even amidst the sheer fatigue. I did wish for a sleeker bun to complement the dress. Chopard jewels finished the look.

Lara Leito: The sky-blue hue of this Ermanno Scervino Spring 2017 possessed a certain enchantment that perhaps ventured a bit too far into fairy-land with the wispy layers. René Caovilla sandals and an ATELIER SWAROVSKI Allegro clutch finished the ensemble.

Alba Rohrwacher: While this Valentino gown was rendered in off-white, it was still quite the solemn offering that was begging for a vibrantly sparking necklace or earring.



Sveva Alviti
: From the updo to the diamond choker and the strapless, ball-gown silhouette, there was a distinct pageant flavour in this look.

Susan Sarandon: The Chopard jewels are the only thing I’d keep with this look. The too-tight gown, the oversized shades, and the uninspired shoes all need to go.
