Beginning the second week of the festival's 2026, on day 7 of the event, married couple Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander attended together.

Carla Bruni embraced timeless Cannes glamour in a sleek black velvet gown with a plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit. The fitted silhouette, paired with pointed black heels and sparkling diamond jewellery, gave the look an elegant finish. 

Daisy Edgar-Jones shimmered on the red carpet in an embellished gown covered in crystal detailing with a cape-like silhouette and neutral tone, which kept the look refined and understated as it was styled with minimal accessories.

Marking yet another entry in our Cannes best dressed list, Heidi Klum wore a champagne-toned gown that hugged her frame before flowing into a soft train with dramatic white off-shoulder sleeves and layered diamond necklaces.

Jacqueline Fernandez embraced the allure of old Hollywood glamour at Cannes in a breathtaking Richard Quinn SS ’26 creation—a sculpted ivory gown paired with dramatic black opera gloves that balanced timeless elegance with modern couture drama.

Tilda Swinton does things differently on the red carpet. It was evident when she chose a metallic, ombre suit to make a statement at the festival. 

Heidi Klum brought the drama and how in a voluminous black strapless corset gown.

Penélope Cruz embraced timeless sophistication in a strapless black satin gown adorned with painterly white floral detailing across the bodice and skirt.
