AND SO IT BEGINS. Venice is revving up for its version of a Covid-safe film festival, and jury president Cate Blanchett stepped onto the dock looking as if she's completely calm and confident and... cold, I guess. That's a lot of layers for a sunny Venice day, even with some light boat travel. But be assured that is not a turtleneck:

It appears to be her gaiter, which she popped down around her neck for a photo op. (She, too, must have seen [the *Scientific American* piece that said the study bemoaning gaiters was misinterpreted](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-those-bogus-reports-on-ineffective-neck-gaiters-got-started/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Hashtag Save the Gaiter.) Anyway, this extremely laid-back debut outfit hopefully portends a gut-punch of glamour when her first red carpet moment arrives. Right? Dare I hope, or will she survey the moment and decide it is not one for frills and furbelows? I hope not. I need this, Cate. WE need this. More furbelows and fewer furrowed brows all around.
