If They Cannes Do It, So Cannes You!

As most of us are currently searching for the chicest gowns to get us through the upcoming season of endless graduations, formals, proms, and weddings, this year’s Cannes Film Festival could not have been timed anymore perfectly.

Sure, the festival was designed to celebrate the premiere of films like “The Unknown Girl”, however, over the years, it has equally become a showcase of the international celebrity style walking its carpets that not only steals the limelight, but provides an elegant whirlwind of inspiration for all fashion lovers.

Last week, supermodels came out in full force wearing the brightest and boldest looks that could be fitting for any black-tie event and although the festival may have officially wrapped up in France, their style inspiration continues to linger throughout the fashion world.

So, do as the models do and check out the seven looks from Cannes that you too can wear in real life.
