Halle Berry To Bella Hadid: Who Did And Who Didn’t Follow The Cannes Red Carpet ‘Dresscode’?
Last Updated:
From Halle Berry ditching Gaurav Gupta Couture to Bella Hadid’s side boob dress, here’s what went down on the 78th Festival de Cannes red carpet.
The opening ceremony of the 78th Festival de Cannes was held on May 13, 2025.
No Voluminous Outfits, No Nudity and No Big Trains were part of the dress code guidelines but did the celebrities attending the opening ceremony of the 78th Cannes Film Festival follow it?
On May 13, the iconic Cannes 2025 red carpet unfurled, and celebrities, including Halle Berry, who is also a jury member, Bella Hadid, Eva Longoria, Irina Shayk, Heidi Klum, Urvashi Rautela, and Julia Garner, attended the opening ceremony in stylish ensembles.
Halle Berry, who was supposed to wear a Gaurav Gupta couture ensemble, chose to ditch the outfit because it had an elaborate train, and she instead opted for a black and white striped floor-length dress.
While Halle chose to stick to the dress code rules, some of the celebrities either chose to turn a blind eye or just weren’t aware of the new red carpet guidelines. Here’s a look at who got the memo and who chose to ignore it.
Halle Berry
During the jury press conference, Halle Berry expressed that she chose not to wear her amazing Gaurav Gupta dress. Halle shared that she couldn’t wear it because the train was too big and she wanted to follow the new rules. She said that she had to pivot and opt for a simple yet chic black and white vertical striped dress. While we would have loved to see Halle adorn the Gaurav Gupta look on the red carpet, we hope she includes it in one of her looks during the Cannes Film Festival.
Bella Hadid
Looks like no rules can stop supermodel Bella Hadid from wearing what she wants. Bella, who is known for her unconventional and bold red carpet looks, has in the past adorned sheer and risque ensembles. This time too, Bella opted for a sleek YSL black dress with a low back side boob maxi dress. The thigh high slit and bold silhouette was a definite head turner on the Cannes red carpet.
Eva Longoria
Eva Longoria made a dazzling statement on the red carpet at the 78th Festival de Cannes. Dressed in an exquisite Tamara Ralph Couture gown from the Spring-Summer 2025 collection, the silhouette featured a rose gold bugle beaded gown contrasted with a black velvet corset and exaggerated bow.
Urvashi Rautela
Urvashi knows how to grab attention on the red carpet, and the avant-garde Michael Cinco voluminous gown and the Judith Leiber parrot clutch did just that. While we are not a fan of this look, Urvashi made sure she had everyone talking about this ‘rule-breaking’ style.
Heidi Klum
Heidi Klum attended the opening ceremony looking like a bouquet. The supermodel made a stunning appearance in an Elia Saab ruffle gown with a train. The look was dramatic and didn’t match the new dress code guidelines. However, Heidi looked stunning in the couture piece, which was from the 1001 seasons of Elie Saab’s show in Riyadh.
