In Cannes, the Street Style Is Just as Good as the Looks on the Croisette

All eyes are on the Croisette during the Cannes Film Festival, as the stars ascend the famed steps in their finest dresses and jewels. We’ve been bowled over by Naomi Campbell recycling the Chanel dress she debuted on the runway in 1996, Bella Hadid wearing the ultimate naked dress, and Isabelle Huppert’s endlessly cool bathrobe dress. But beyond the photo calls and red carpets, Cannes street style is also proving itself attention-worthy.

The week is filled with parties, shopping excursions, and strolls around the French Riviera, and attendees have outfits for every occasion. On the minidress front, Hadid dazzled in gold, while Cara Delevingne rocked a purple Miu Miu number. Meanwhile, Kelly Rutherford, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Charli XCX all showed off their takes on maxi dresses.

Cannes may have a reputation for its high sartorial bar, but that doesn’t mean the stars are leaving their jeans at home. Barbara Palvin took to the streets in a pair of barrel-legged jeans, while Peggy Gou paired hers with a minidress and Yseult went full Canadian tuxedo.

Below, take a look at some of the best street style moments from the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.
