The start of the 77th edition of the Cannes Film Festival is just around the corner, scheduled to take place on the Croisette from May 14th to May 25th, 2024, and almost everything seems to be ready: the official poster, already released, draws inspiration from a scene from Akira Kurosawa’s 1991 film “Rhapsody.”
One of the most anticipated cinematic events of the year, the festival will see the participation of the most renowned filmmakers: among them stand out Francis Ford Coppola, who will be competing with “Megalopolis”, Paolo Sorrentino with his new film “Parthenope”, Paul Schrader, in competition with “Oh Canada” and George Lucas, set to receive the Palme d’Or for lifetime achievement alongside Studio Ghibli.
This year’s edition will boast Greta Gerwig as President of the jury, the first American director to preside over the French jury and the second youngest female president in the history of the event, renowned for her masterpiece “Barbie”.
Camille Cottin, the French actress famous for her role in “Call my agent,” has been chosen as the Festival’s godmother, catapulting her to fame as one of the most beloved Francophone actresses by Hollywood directors.
The festival, which has been showcasing films from around the world since 1946, awarding the best films and conferring many other accolades, also represents an unmissable opportunity for international actors and other celebrities to walk the iconic red carpet during premieres and gala evenings, creating a veritable runway with outfits designed by the world’s greatest international designers.
This year, Fashion Wow’s editor, Alessandra Luti, will also be present on the Red Carpet alongside Japanese fashion designer Munetaka Yokoyama, for whom our Alessandra is an ambassador in Italy and Monte Carlo, and she will wear one of the wonderful kimonos created by the renowned Asian designer specialized in bespoke creations and committed to spreading Japanese culture worldwide.
They are ready to walk together on the Red Carpet at Cannes Film Festival 2024.
The appointment is therefore for May 14th with the opening ceremony on the Red Carpet followed by the coolest parties, including the private party organized by the renowned Japanese designer Munetaka Yokoyama, which will provide our editor with exciting moments and insights to capture the latest fashion trends. During the Cannes Film Festival, it will also be possible to visit the fashion exhibition of Munetaka Yokoyama.
