France is lit up, the red carpet is unfolded and the paparazzi is prepped.
Once a year, the luminaries of world cinema descend to La France to applaud the artistic achievements and to party away the ‘starry’ night.
Although this eleven days fest is bequeathed to cinema screenings, premieres, and photo calls, the event the world looks out the most for is the red carpet appearances. Those breathtaking magnificent gowns, stunning eye blinding jewellery and over the top gorgeous accessories entice the ravaging fire in tabloids worldwide.
Cannes 2019 was no different and the fashion police worldwide are going gaga over this year’s illuminating and colourful red carpet ensembles of these hotshots.
Here are the glimpses of the finest dressed personalities at Cannes 2019

This Scarlet Beauty in red silk chiffon halter dress with an outlandish ultra-high slit and jaw-dropping dramatic cape was the show stopper. What else can you expect from Victoria’s Secret model?
2. Selena Gomez- In Louis Vuitton
If there was a Cannes debut award, Selena would bag it without a hitch. An all white ensemble of the cropped bustier, matching the semi-quilted maxi skirt with a sexy long slit, metallic silver Jimmy Choos and gleaming Bulgari jewels. Need we say more?

Everyone bows to this red carpet ‘big bow’ Royalty! She does it again. Deepika stepped out in a classic monochrome gown by Dundas and Lorraine Schwartz jewels personifying a beauty unmatched.
4. Elle Fanning- In Valentino
Elle was all about florals and flares at Cannes 2019. Donning a Valentino Haute Couture ball gown with plunging neckline, flared sleeves, and Chopard jewels, Elle stood apart from the crowd. But Elle maybe you can try doing a hairstyle which is not braided the next time. Bored are we? Yes.
5. Juliane Moore-In Dior
Looking radiant as ever, Moore, redefined what elegance means on the red carpet. Effortlessly chic in a verdant gown by Dior that showcased her décolletage and hugged her evergreen hourglass figure, Juliane casted an emerald spell on Cannes 2019.

Chopra did it again with her couture gown combined with cascading train, and Christian Louboutin pumps. The bedazzled beauty in black was no less than a charming black swan. Slay it, Queen!
8. Tilda Swinton- In Haider Ackermann
High shine style! The lady in Silver sequin long-sleeve column gown with Cartier bracelet and ring was all about that bling. Shining brighter than a diamond the talented British actress gave everyone a moment to just stop and gawk at her at Cannes.

The French actress-filmmaker went all Indian with a royal Bengal tiger belt around her waist and Indian designer. If anyone handled grace and finesse in France this year, its was Melita Toscan.
