It's that time of year again: the Cannes Film Festival is underway in France.
It's an opportunity for movies to be screened in front of film royalty and for beloved celebrities, young actors, models, and other stars to showcase their stunning fashion on the event's red carpets.
And so far, people like Meryl Streep and Greta Gerwig have done just that.
Here's what they've worn — and some celebrity outfits that have missed the mark.

She arrived wearing a blue-and-white striped dress from Maison Margiela's spring/summer 2024 collection and white Tabi stilettos.
The former piece had a pleated midi skirt, a fitted waist, and thick shoulder straps embellished with squares at the top, making the dress resemble paper doll clothes.

She attended the same photo event as Gerwig, and also chose to wear blue-and-white stripes. But Streep did so via a button-up blouse tucked into white high-waisted pants with pleats.
She also wore a long white blazer, silver pumps, black sunglasses, and a wide-brimmed hat. Michael Kors designed her outfit.

She walked the "Le Deuxième Acte" red carpet in a black Elie Saab jumpsuit and leopard-print duster.
Either piece might have worked fine on its own. But together, they meshed too many details.
Her suit alone featured a floral appliqué crafted from pink and black beads, and its pants were so long that they extended past her metallic heels.

Her off-the-shoulder gown had black sparkles across its sweetheart neckline, big crystal buttons down its form-fitting bodice, and a white skirt with a thigh-high slit.
The latter piece also extended into a short train that mirrored the round style of her diamond choker necklace.
Hill perfected the look with black sandals, a pixie haircut, diamond jewelry, and smoky makeup.

He arrived at the first 2024 Cannes screening wearing a sheer blouse with a thin train, black trousers, and a white blazer.
But his outfit didn't stop there. He also added shining dress shoes, glowing makeup, and a diamond necklace with an aquamarine pendant.

The base layer of her strapless gown was full of intricate details. Its corset top was sheer and embellished with braided cups, while its floor-length skirt had hip slits and fabric hanging at her thighs.
But on top of the daring look sat a golden corset decorated with metal roses.
The outfit was futuristic and different but also a little too busy for a glamorous red carpet.

The Saiid Kobeisy gown was crafted from voluminous red satin. It featured a wrapped bodice, off-the-shoulder sleeves, and a bubble skirt that cascaded behind Klum in thick layers.
Its overall design was stunning and made the supermodel look like a princess. But the look could have been even better with a few tweaks.
Bigger diamond jewelry could have added some much-needed sparkle, and stiletto sandals would have fit the dress better than pumps. It might also have been nice to see Klum wear the dress with its straps styled as they were on the designer's runway.
