Marion Cotillard in Chanel

Damn you, Cotillard, for making overalls seems sassy and achievably non-dumpy. DAMN YOOOOOU.

Marion Cotillard in Chanel

Then she dressed up as the matriarch of a square-dancing family.

Charlotte Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin

Somehow, this is not a Gap ad.

Abigail Breslin in Oscar de la Renta, Camille Cottin in Dior

Whoever bought Abigail's hose picked out the wrong shade. Her dress is great, though, and Camille looks classically lovely. Matt Damon needs socks and a travel steamer.

But he brought his shades, although... I am not sure he looks hotter in these particular sunglasses.

Camille Cottin

These look good on her, but are a TOUGH shape to pull off.

Abigail Breslin

That's a gorgeous color on her. She looks so nervous. She's really taken a break in the last few years -- just the second Zombieland movie since 2017 -- and Cannes is a TOUGH place to jump back into the water.

Abigail Breslin

It's lovely, Abigail! Fret not.

Camille Cottin

This is very sleek and sexy.

Didi Stone in Philosophy

This is floaty and fun -- the shimmery pink is nifty on her, which it should be, as this was custom.

Honor Swinton Byrne and SWINTON

Wait, as she's SWINTON's daughter, do I have to write it as Honor SWINTON Byrne? Anyway, I applaud her for trying to make knee purses happen, but I shall pass with a smile. SWINTON looks like she's still in her dressing gown and just figured she'd leave it.

Paz Vega in Nicolas Jebran

Not her chicest moment.

Paz Vega in Nicolas Jebran

That's better. The CHOKER. Damn.

Soo Joo Park in Mugler

I wonder if Mugler got TP'd recently and it was a lightbulb moment.

Josh O'Connor

I do not think his brand of hipster works for me.

Vanessa Paradis in Chanel

That's pretty perfect for a Cannes photocall. Even the wind, were it present, wouldn't ruffle it much.

Vanessa Paradis in Chanel

And that's... fine. It's nothing particularly special.

Isabelle Adjani in Dior

Oh, Isabelle. Even Frances "Baby" Houseman took off the bra for the big mambo.

Isabelle Adjani

She is gloriously kooky, even when she's wearing a plain suit. Someone please let her guest edit a magazine.

Adele Exarchopoulos

This is the slick version of that outfit.

Catherine Deneuve

I hope a life of glamorously, expensively shapeless dresses awaits me.

Melissa George in Armani

She is NOT using strings as a shirt, but boy, it wants you to think about it. That does not look fun to wear, and it's not very PRETTY, and there's not any real joy in it, so... can't entirely suss out why she picked it.

Spike Lee in Louis Vuitton x NBA (??) and Tonya Lewis Lee

LV and the NBA? Okay. Hey, the suit is snappy. And I see that peek of sock, Spike! Thank you for demonstrating the power of a sassy sock game.

Dylan Penn in Chanel

I will pass on the pelvis smudges. (They are flowers, but they are a big meh.)

Dylan Penn (in Chanel) and Sean Penn

Cuter. I appreciate the return of the foot tuxedos. (This is his daughter with Robin Wright and she is a good mix of both of them.)

Melanie Laurent in Dior

VERY good.

Melanie Laurent in Celine

I also think this works really well. Celine has snuck in here a few times, and it's nice to see for a change.

Carla Bruni in Saint Laurent

Once again she looks unimpeachably glam.

Bella Hadid in Dior

Her big grins lately are nice to see, but I honestly think this might have looked better without ANY shirt, and just some boob tape keeping it honest.

Jodie Turner-Smith in Gucci

Well. Of her Guccis, it's not bad! She has SO MUCH presence, too.

Taylor Hill

I saw this and thought, "Oh, this is good! I hope it isn't bonkers below the waist."

Taylor Hill in Etro

Yeah, it's lightly bonkers below the waist. I LOVE that fabric. I just wish it were not such a very dramatic mullet.

Taylor Hill in Etro

OBVIOUSLY we have visible and very critical underwear. Is this our first one of Cannes? Can it be true?

The back is about as you expect.

Katheryn Winnick

"Is this how you make your own wind?"

Katheryn Winnick in Stella McCartney

It's like a reverse thong.

Lady Victoria Hervey

And now, Lady Hervey, as inexplicable as ever.

The Cannes Grab-Bag: Overalls! Sunglasses! Denim! Matt Damon!

I didn't even mention SWINTON yet! Oh, wait.
