Nicole Kidman is a member of this year Cannes Film Festival feature film jury and I can not be more excited. For the Opening Ceremony gala premiere of 'The Great Gatsby' I would love to see Nicole wear this amazing white Elie Saab Spring 2013 Couture gown with a short cape. Yes I want Nicole to dare to wear the cape. Nicole is one of the few people in Hollywood that could pull off this gown which has been a favorite runway look from fashion critics worldwide. Pair this dress with an old Hollywood up do and a pair of silver sandals. And to complete the ensemble bring a pop of color via a pair of Chopard diamond and sapphire earrings and ring would complete this amazing opening ceremony ensemble.
Audrey Tautou is the Mistress of Ceremonies at this years Cannes Film Festival so she will be on hand to host the opening and closing ceremonies. For the opening ceremony I would love to see Audrey wear this Lanvin gown that I found on Net-A-Porter.com in cream but wear it in a blue like I have shown here. I think that this is a perfect look for the French beauty who loves to rep classic French brands. Finish the look with a pair of black pumps, a Chanel diamond and pearl Camilla ring, and diamond and pearl Chanel bracelet and earrings and Audrey will wow which she has not done in a very long time.
The promo tour for 'The Great Gatsby' from Carey Mulligan has been very lack luster and I am hoping that when she presents the film as the opening film of the Cannes Film Festival on May 15th that she brings the high fashion glamour that she is known for. I would take this pearl silver Lanvin Fall 2013 RTW cocktail dress and have it made into a full length ball gown. There were some stunning ballgowns made by Lanvin last year, most notably the pink gown worn by Natalie Portman, and I think that this would be a perfect look for Carey for this event. Finish with a pair of Salvatore Ferragamo silver satin pumps, and some amazing Tiffany & Co. (the official jewelers of The Great Gatsby) jewelry and a wavy up do and Carey will finally wow me on the red carpet.
Isla Fisher has never been to the Cannes Film Festival so I am predicting that she will live up the opportunity to wear a big glamorous gown for her big night. I think that this pink Tony Ward Spring 2013 Couture ball gown is perfect for Isla for the big night. Pair this with a pair of nude pumps, and a gunmetal silver clutch, as well as some simple diamond earring and bracelet and Isla will be able to hold her own against fashion heavy hitters like Carey and Nicole on the red carpet of the Palais de Festivals during the Opening Ceremony.
Beyonce's husband Jay-Z produced the soundtrack for the film and Bey was one of the performers on it as well. I would not be surpirised to see Queen B walk arm in arm with her husband because on top of all of those factors she is also a L'Oreal spokesmodel. For this premiere I would love to see her wear this black Zuhair Murad Fall 2013 RTW one shouldered gown. This gown will look absolutely amazing on Beyonce's body but is subdued enough not to take the spotlight away from the nights big stars. Complete the look with a pair of black Christian Louboutin sandals and some amazing statement jewelry including earring and a bracelet from Beyonce's go to jeweler Lorraine Schwartz.
For the past three years Chinese actress Fan Bingbing has attended the Opening Ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival wearing a cultural inspired gown and the fashion world waits to see what she chooses. All of her gowns have been custom made for her for the event but if I were able to choose a runway gown it would have to be this red and gold Guo Pei Spring 2013 Couture ball gown with fan and dragon embellishments. This would be the biggest gown she has worn at the festival and is reminicient in shape of the hot pink Marchesa gown she wore for this years Oscar's ceremony. A gold and red Anya Hindmarch fan clutch and a pair of gold peep toe pumps would be the perfect accessories to this amazing gown for Fan for the Opening Ceremony.
As a sponsor of the Cannes Film Festival, Chopard tends to send model to help add glamour to the red carpet much like L'Oreal. Eva Herzigova has been one of these models who has introduced important collections for the brand like their 'Marylin Forever' set during last years festival. This year I would love to see Eva wear this amazing fully beaded Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2013 RTW dress with 3/4 length sleeves made into a gown with a sweeping train. Add some diamond and ruby earrings, a red clutch, and a pair of silver sandals and Eva will be set for the red carpet.
