Well guys, the red carpet has officially been rolled up, the champagne flutes are empty (except for that one guy still nursing his mimosa), and the French Riviera can finally exhale—the 2025 Cannes Film Festival is over, and the stars made sure to go out with a sparkly bang.
Elle Fanning, Cate Blanchett, and Halle Berry showed up to the closing ceremony looking like the holy trinity of haute couture. If fashion were a competition (which, let’s be honest, it totally is), these three just Thanos-snapped the rest of us into last season.
The grand event went down on Saturday, May 24, at the ultra-glam Palais des Festivals in Cannes, aka the world’s fanciest excuse to wear sequins and expensive borrowed jewelry.
But wait—the guest list wasn’t just a trio of fabulousness. The red carpet also welcomed:
- Paul Mescal, who probably smoldered so hard cameras short-circuited.
- Simone Ashley, looking like royalty on vacation.
- John C. Reilly and wife Alison Dickey, bringing peak adorable vibes.
- Adam Lambert, dressed like your stylish future overlord.
- Stellan Skarsgård, who may or may not be 87% cinematic gravitas.
- Renate Reinsve, giving off mysterious indie goddess energy.
- Jeremy Strong, possibly still in character.
- Da’Vine Joy Randolph, living up to her very joyful name.
- And of course, Jane Fonda, who could honestly out-glam everyone while power-walking in sneakers.
Earlier this week, Elle Fanning and Renate Reinsve were spotted having a wholesome “we’re besties in a period drama” moment at the premiere of their new flick, The Sentimental Value—which sounds like a movie that might make you sob into a $12 latte.
Fashion alert! Because you know we need the deets:
- Elle Fanning floated in wearing a custom Chanel dress and enough Cartier to open a boutique.
- Cate Blanchett wore Louis Vuitton so flawlessly, we’re assuming the gown sewed itself onto her body.
- Adam Lambert went full designer bingo with Balmain, Dolce & Gabbana, Alexander McQueen, EgonLab, Nina Ricci—basically every fashion house RSVP’d to his outfit.
- Renate also rocked Louis Vuitton, because why not coordinate your couture with Cate?
- Da’Vine Joy Randolph glowed in a custom Cong Tri dress that definitely deserves its own IMDB page.
Cannes is closed, the glam is maxed out, and somewhere in France, a bedazzled croissant is weeping with joy. Until next year, mes amis! 💋✨
