Introduction
We may have missed out on the Oscars earlier this month, but we’ll be able to see our favorite stars at the Venice Film Festival. This year’s lineup includes some of Hollywood’s biggest names, including Daisy Ridley and Elizabeth Debicki. Plus, several brand-new films are debuting at the festival as well including a queer romance between two sisters (Roksanda Ilincic), a modern western (Clare V.), and one starring Katie Holmes (Altuzarrar). Here are all the reasons why you need to mark your calendar for this year’s festivities:
Daisy Ridley in Roksanda
Daisy Ridley wore a Roksanda dress to the Venice Film Festival, and it was gorgeous. The silk and wool gown featured a deep v-neckline, which perfectly reveals her collarbone and a draped skirt that makes her look longer than she is. The actress looks stunning in this elegant design she’s been wearing more sophisticated looks lately and we can only hope that she’ll continue to wear them at all times! Extend an invitation to Jodie Turner-Smith, whose departure from the Venice airport caused the Vogue team to audibly ooh and ah. Although the Gucci brand ambassador could choose from anything in Alessandro Michele’s retro-futuristic collection, the actor threw the media a surprise by donning a Casablanca suit that was the color of Italian Riviera sunsets. Turner-Smith had her Venice wardrobe planned out to high art, as evidenced by the monogrammed Gucci bag that accompanied her flawless and impossibly stylish outfit.
Riley Keough in Rebecca Vallance
- The black and white chevron print dress is embellished with a black belt.
- It has a thigh-high slit that can be seen as she walks down the red carpet.
- The neckline is plunging and gives viewers an eyeful of her cleavage when she leans forward to speak to someone.
Katie Holmes in Altuzarrar and Clare V
The Venice Film Festival is an annual event that takes place in Italy and is one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world. The festival has been going on for over 70 years, and it’s widely considered to be one of the most prestigious events in cinema, along with Cannes and Toronto Film Festivals.
On November 2nd, 2019 Katie Holmes wore Altuzarrar and Clare V. to the opening ceremony of this year’s edition of the Venice Film Festival which was celebrating its 70th anniversary!
Barbara Palvin in Versace
Barbara Palvin, who stars in Versace’s latest campaign, is a rising star. And if you’re looking to catch up on all of her style tips and tricks, then look no further than this video:
As you can see from the above video (and many others), Barbara is known for having an eye for color and detail. Whether she’s putting together a simple ensemble, creating something more elaborate with embellishments and accessories like jewelry or shoes, or even just wearing something bold that grabs attention, Barbara always manages to stand out from the crowd. And what better way than with this amazing Versace dress?
Elizabeth Debicki in Fendi
In the film, Debicki plays a Fendi model who is so famous for her social media presence that she becomes the face of the brand. Her character wears a classic Fendi silhouette: a one-shoulder gown made of silk, with long sleeves and an asymmetrical hemline. The dress was designed by Alessandro Sartori, who also designed for Carolina Herrera and Christian Dior in 2016.
The Venice Film Festival has already announced its lineup for this year’s event, which runs from August 29th through September 7th at various locations around Venice (and elsewhere throughout Italy). This year’s theme is “Cinema” woman many movies are bingeing screened during both days of the festival as well as throughout each day’s events within those respective venues!
Sienna Miller in Valentino
The Venice Film Festival is now in full swing, and the red carpet has been full of stars. Sienna Miller was one of those stars who walked down the ramp in a beautiful Valentino dress.
The dress was part of their Spring/Summer 2019 collection, which features many other stunning looks for women like Sienna Miller to wear on their big nights out in style.
Elle Fanning in Calvin Klein by Appointment and Chopard
The actress, who is currently filming the new movie “A Star Is Born,” has been seen wearing a Calvin Klein by Appointment dress, which she accessorized with a Chopard necklace and earrings. She also has a ring from the brand and wears another watch from it as well.
From the Red Carpet to the Actual Movies
The Venice Film Festival is one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious film festivals. Held annually in late August, it is known for its eclectic mix of films from all over the world.
The festival has been held since 1932 when it was first organized by the Venice Committee which consisted of Alberto Mondadori (the founder and owner of Rizzoli publishing house) along with several other notable figures including Francesco Rosso di Castellammare di Stabia, Giuseppe De Santis, Camillo Benso di Cavour, and Umberto Cagnoni.
Today two main organizations run or support this event: The Venice Biennale Foundation (Fondazione Biennale di Venezia) which organizes exhibitions at various locations across town throughout each year; while Fondazioni del Cinema Arte Cinematographic International Organization is dedicated to sole look promoting cinema as an art form through their annual film festival held annually in October/November timeframe since 1951 when it started with only five categories: Best Foreign Language Film.
