Lights, Camera, Fashion!

Sun, sand, beach, films and fashion are synonymous with the Cannes Film Festival. The 67th annual Cannes Film Festival started on 14th May, 2014 and ended amid great fanfare on 25th May, 2014. The festival showcased an array of the best films and everyone who is anyone in the world of cinema graced the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival. The Turkish film Winter Sleep directed by Nuri Bilge Ceylan won the Palme d’Or award


The larger part of the festival is about fashion and so while the talented celebrities paraded the red carpet in hot couture the fashion police got down to business. From Nicole Kidman to Sonam Kappor to Ryan Gosling, everyone was dressed in their Sunday best. There were surprises; some good, some bad and some of which we are sharing here.


Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has had to face the music before for her choices on the red carpet. But the actor was a delightful surprise in her golden number. Mrs. Bachchan wore a Roberto Cavalli strapless mermaid cut gown that suited her just right. Her hair and makeup complemented her well while the bright lipstick added a pop of color. Her second appearance on the carpet was again in a Roberto Cavalli mermaid cut white gown, and though it looked similar it was equally stunning. For the amfAR gala she wore a champagne colored Armani Prive with crystal detailing that was accessorized just perfectly.  
 
Freida Pinto

The Slum dog Millionaire actress Freida Pinto brought glamour with her stylish outfits. Freida looked downright gorgeous in her Michael Kors nude tulle gown which was decorated with sequins with fluttering feathers. The wavy hair and bold lipstick completed her look. Her second appearance was breathtaking, simple and elegant. Wearing an Oscar de la Renta coral gown with gold sequin embroidery, the actress looked spectacular.  

Sonam Kappor

Sonam Kappor is one of the best dressed celebrities going around and she proved it yet again at the film festival. Donning an Elie Saab Couture with a strapless bodice and flowy pleated chiffon, she was a vision. She seems to like Elie Saab a lot as she picked another black sleeveless gown by the same designer. The beaded gown with appliqués and a Victorian style skirt was her best look yet. She gave a traditional touch with her Anamika Khanna couture. The dusty pink sari with elaborate beading and exquisite flower embellishment was definitely an eye catcher.


Jennifer Lawrence

This was just a very small dose of the fashion on the red carpet. There was Jennifer Lawrence who got the media’s attention with her beautiful outfits. 


Blake Lively

Blake Lively made a style statement with every appearance and Nicole Kidman was elegance personified. 

Nicole Kidman

The men were not far behind either, with Ryan Gosling and Robert Pattinson setting tongues wagging, just to name a few.
