Sonam Kapoor: The Bollywood actress wore Ralph & Russo for all her appearances on the Cannes red carpet. We can see why. All her gowns were exquisitely tailored. We especially loved this unique take on the cape dress.

The Cannes Film Festival, is one of the most prominent film festivals in the world.

With an array of movies being debuted from several different countries, it also sees celebrities from all across the globe bringing their best fashion game to the South of France. These are some of our favourite looks from the festival that just wrapped up:

Araya H Hargate:

We loved the unusual finesse of this gown, which plays on different textures and silhouettes being infused into one another.

Victoria Beckham:

Mrs Beckham truly knows how to turn simplicity into something show-stopping. The only thing we can find fault with is that the pants should have been better tailored to her height but other than that, wow.

Kirsten Dunst

The more you look at this dress, the more you will love it. The floral detailing is dreamy and fairy-like all at once.

As if one dress wasn’t enough to blow us away, Kirsten made sure she wooed us with her fashion sense again. This time with a much simpler dress, she looked like a classic movie star.

Blake Lively:

Can pregnancy look this good? Clearly, yes. Blake lively always stuns the crowd at major fashion events and this time she did it again by looking ultra-glamorous with a little baby bump. Fitted dresses are still her favourite — and  why not?

Finally, someone from the Kardashian/Jenner family has been spotted in someone other than Balmain. Kendall looked fierce in  this Gatsby-inspired dress from Elie Saab Haute Couture.

Nomzamo Mbatha:

The lovely South African starlet arrived in Cannes and came out in full force on the red carpet in a stunning shweshwe dress. She wrote on her Instagram that she was there representing South Africa — and we couldn’t be more proud.
