Cannes Film Festival 2026: Photocalls

Here is a roundup from the rest of the notable photocalls from the first few days of Cannes Film Festival, where the dress code shifted away from premiere glamour and into something far more relaxed.

Back in Gucci, Isabelle Huppert leaned, quite literally, into Riviera daytime glamour with these shimmering silver trousers and a textured high-neck top from the Fall 2026 collection that looked ready for a disco at midnight. I have really missed this from Isabelle. It reminds me of her Armani Privé run at this festival a few years ago, before the Balenciaga contract. Naturally, she also added oversized sunglasses.

Virginie Efira took the opposite route, opting for Saint Laurent tailoring styled with Bermuda shorts. I love the warm cinnamon tone, but the proportions are so off. Her choices in Saint Laurent so far at this festival haven’t been impressive.

Marion Cotillard’s Chanel Fall 2026 black double-breasted jacket worn over the pleated burgundy skirt had a school-uniform undertone. I was happy to see her soften the styling, opting for mules over those runway shoes, but overall, this was a bit underwhelming.

Mélanie Thierry looked like she had stepped out of a 1990s fashion editorial in this Dior Spring 2026 menswear look, and she was able to sell the masculine edge of it perfectly with her coiffed hairstyle and those Dior sunglasses.

Léa Seydoux gave us a look that continues her no-fuss style in Louis Vuitton, with the glossy black leather texture of the skirt adding a tiny edge.

While I could make a case for Marion’s Chanel Fall 2026 look, I won’t for Tao Okamoto’s. That’s because I can see where the top part of the dress and the pleated skirt connect, and it is so unappealing. Then we have the jarring mix of colours, and let’s not forget those two-tone shoes. The only thing I would save here is the oversized beige blazer.

Dior were really pushing their denim for the photocalls, with Nadia Tereszkiewicz embracing the trend, adding a white blazer and tank top, because sometimes simplicity is enough.
