The annual Cannes Film Festival has once again kicked off, bringing with it a range of extravagant red carpet dresses. Starting off the week of fancy frocks was Salma Hayak who went for an embellished grey frock for the opening night Premiere of “Midnight in Paris”, a far cry from the sexy Gucci leather frock she wore to the Puss in Boots photocall earlier in the day.
She was joined on the red carpet by Uma Thurman who swapped her casual white sleeved 70s frock, which she’d worn for the Cannes Jury photocall, for a stunning long white dress with a sexy split and feather detailing. Also on the red carpet was Aishwaraya Rai Bachchan who stepped out in a fitted embellished nude two piece.
Flying the flag for the more casual look was Rachel McAdams who showed off her blonde locks in a white capped sleeved frock at the Midnight in Paris photocall, while Lady Gaga went all gothic Geisha on us for her appearance at the event.

I’m surprised, though, that a few celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner didn’t make the cut. What do you think?
