The 75th Cannes Film Festival is finally here. Since its advent in 1946, Cannes has always been one of the most highly anticipated industry events of the year. There's no doubt that the excitement surrounding this festival has much to do with witnessing the best in cinema, but we also must acknowledge that over these next 12 days, the world of fashion will have a moment to shine too, and La Croisette will be its stage.

Industry leaders, cinema stars, and celebrities are once again descending upon the French Riviera in their finest ensembles, and one brand in particular is set to make a prominent appearance: Chopard. Honoring a special 25-year partnership with the festival, Chopard will showcase 75 bespoke high jewels on this year's red carpet.

Ahead, preview a curated collection of T&C's favorite festival looks, which we'll continue to update throughout the event.
