RECAP | CANNES FILM FESTIVAL INSPIRED LOOKS
It’s the event that fashion fanatics, film enthusiasts and the elite Hollywood crowd wait for every year – the famous Cannes Film Festival. The multi-week celebration provides acknowledgement and accolades to the very best in international cinema, gathering all the global players in the film industry in one place. With some of the most exceptional fashion seen on the red carpet presented against the beautiful back drop of the French Rivera, it's no surprise that this decades-long tradition – now celebrating its 68th anniversary – has continued robustly into 2015. This year's festival began just last Wednesday as celebrities made their way onto the red carpet, wearing styles ranging from decked-out ball gowns to chic crop-top ensembles. Even with the vast variety of dress, the classic combination of black and white stood prominent throughout the week. As the festival wraps up, we thought we'd highlight some of our favorite styles worn by Hollywood’s finest, ranging from Natalie Portman to Cara Delevingne, while showing off similar looks created right here on Lookbook (so you can recreate your own glamorous summer resort looks – just in time for summer)!
