Elle Fanning has taken a refreshingly breezy approach to the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.
The 26-year-old actor has worn quite a few memorable looks on the Croisette over the years, typically wowing fans in elegant showstoppers like the 1940s-inspired Dior haute couture look she wore to the Once Upon a Time In Hollywood premiere in 2019. Just last year, she continued to outdo herself on-and-off the red carpet, though her metal Paco Rabanne party dress was particularly unexpected—even after she opened the festival in a jaw-dropping, sculptural gown by Alexander McQueen.
Comparatively, the sheer Gucci gown Fanning wore to the 2024 Cannes Film Festival closing ceremony was almost casual with it’s dainty daisy print and flouncy pleating. Fanning went in the complete opposite direction of last year’s structural looks with a particularly youthful piece from the Italian fashion house’s 2025 resort collection, which she styled with minimal jewelry, pastel blue eyeshadow, and an effortless flicked-out lob.

There is simply not a single bad angle, making it the perfect option for the festival’s open red carpet. See for yourself:
