You’d be forgiven for thinking it was celebrity wedding season at the moment, but it is in fact the Cannes film festival that’s bringing out all the glamorous gowns – many of which are set to inspire bridal design and shape future collections, while brides-to-be can take style notes on the old-fashioned glamour on display.
Pictured left, the stunning German actress Diane Kruger is wearing a Marchesa gown that’s very much in keeping with some of the floral designs appearing on the aisle at the moment. Angelina Jolie, meanwhile, wears a draped Versace number with a wrap waist; a bridalwear favourite that looks good on all shapes (though you’d need Ange’s legs to pull off that split skirt!)
