Tulle, a lot, passionately and even madly and an escalation of volume: the spectacular dresses marked the spirits of the Croisette.

A showcase for exceptional creation, the Cannes Film Festival still manages to bring out clothing trends every year.

Proof of this is with green, the color that won all the votes of the stars on the steps of the Palais des Festivals this year.

The fortnight has seen the proliferation of another far more spectacular – and less wearable – phenomenon:

chantilly dresses,

adorned with cascades of ruffles.

Among the followers, Cindy Bruna in Giambattista Valli for her climb of the steps on May 19, the influencer Léonie Hanne in Nicole + Felicia the same day or the Ukrainian businesswoman Elvira Gavrilova in the colors of her country's flag.

So many appearances that offered a great show on the Croisette, between magic and comicality.

Light and profusely dressed

Signed Giambattista Valli, the specialist in the field, or Off-White, these XXL dresses regularly punctuated the red carpet of the 75th edition.

Glamorous when captured by the flashes of the red carpet, these real tulle sculptures can also make you smile.

Their caricatural character is regularly derided by the designer duo Viktor and Rolf.

In Cannes, no second degree dresses, but comical scenes of difficult car exits at the foot of the steps.

A touch of lightness and extravagance which marks the return of the Cannes Film Festival, after the dullness due to the editions during the pandemic.
