- Stewart and Penélope Cruz wore Chanel, Dakota Johnson chose Gucci, and Anya Taylor-Joy and Rebecca Ferguson rocked looks from Dior
- The twin nieces of the late ‘people’s princess’, British royals Lady Amelia Spencer and Lady Eliza Spencer, showed up in Alberta Ferretti for Parallel Mothers
The annual Venice International Film Festival has returned to the “floating city” once more. This year’s 78th edition opened on September 1 with films like Dune, Princess Diana-inspired Spencer and The Lost Daughter competing for the Golden Lion awards.
Besides highly anticipated films, what we also love is the fascinating fashion showcase at photocalls and premieres, as international stars disembark from water taxis in glamorous couture gowns and extravagant high jewellery. From rising actresses Zendaya and Anya Taylor-Joy, to red carpet regulars Penélope Cruz and Kate Hudson, we’ve shortlisted the most fittingly dressed celebrities so far.
One of the most-liked fashion moments on social media was Zendaya’s Venice film festival debut. The 25-year-old actress flaunted her flawless figure in a sexy nude Balmain high-slit dress along with Christian Louboutin pumps in the same tone and Bulgari jewellery.
Zendaya’s red carpet companion was American heartthrob Timothée Chalamet, who looked dapper in an all-black ensemble by Haider Ackermann with chic Cartier jewellery.
Dakota Johnson also dazzled ahead of the premiere of The Lost Daughter in a sequinned V-neck column gown featuring rosaline crystal details on top of a nude tulle underlay from Gucci.
